How to cut a pumpkin
Cut the pumpkin in half to one side of the stem.
If you want to bake with a pumpkin, learning to cut it properly for roasting or baking is the first step. Basically, you're just going to cut the pumpkin in half, and the easiest way to do this is usually by sitting the pumpkin upright on a steady surface, then cutting straight down the middle.

Choose your answer from: (a). Make sure the pumpkin handles a little way to the left, otherwise it could fall over. Cut the pumpkin in half just as if you were carving your spoon on a knife. (b). This will result in a square, round pumpkin-that is, no round sides. Consider using a cooking knife to cut both halves in half horizontally. (c). When you have the pumpkin cut, carefully cut along the stem. Cut across parallel to the other half of the pumpkin. (d). Insert the knife and carefully cut straight down toward the blossom end, stabilizing the pumpkin on a towel. Push firmly, working the knife down through the flesh of the pumpkin.
Answer:
(d).
