Notebook and family notes
The family remembers this dish being made in a skillet.
Cinnamon appears in the handwritten ingredient list, but the directions do not say when to add it. No ingredient quantities are specified.
A separate note underneath these recipes reads: “Sliced pumpkin and put on sticks to dry.” The notebook does not clearly assign this preservation note to either cooked recipe.
