Did you leave the skin on or did you remove it? I allways bake pumpkins for
pie, but remove the skin. The resulting pie is not as orange as the pumpkin
in a can.

Perhaps it's in the variety of the pumpkin being cooked? I've tried
several different varieties, and have both baked them and boiled them to get
the mash, and have consistently gotten a grey end-product with the pie, but
not with the mash itself. Sorry...I think I should've specified a bit more.
The mash turns out to be orange, yes...but once baked into pie filling and
the like...at least for me....the consistent color is a grey-brown, not the
lovely deep orange that modern pies have been associated with.
Sorry, gang....mea culpa...
