I haven't made the pumpkin succotash recipe that I posted on 20 Oct 22 - 07:25 PM for possibly 20 years because I totally forgot about it. I decided to make it for dinner tonight.

I remembered something from when I made it before. When all the ingredients are in the pot and the flavours haven't merged together yet, I always used to smell the disassociated flavours and think, this isn't very appetising. After it has simmered for the required time, the flavours and smells meld together very nicely.

Hubby didn't complain about it so it must have been ok. I added a few green olives and some grated Parmesan cheese and served it with pasta. I might have to tweak the recipe a bit next time, but it tasted good to me. I also think it might work for a pasta bake.
