Refrigerate another 20 minutes while you prepare the filling.
For filling, mix sugars, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and salt in mixing bowl.
Whisk together pumpkin, milk, eggs and orange peel in a seperate bowl.
Whisk dry ingredients into wet ingredients and set aside.
Make your egg wash by stirring egg yolk and water together.
Brush the entire crust with the egg wash and then pour the filling in.
Bake about 35- 45 minutes in preheated 375 oven until filling is set.
You may want to use foil to cover the crust if it starts getting too dark.
