PUMPKIN AND RICE SOUP



Pumpkin and Rice Soup image

Silky textured and vibrant, the pumpkin soup I made as soon after 40 hours of travel back from India. It has a herby rosemary butter drizzle and lemon ginger pulp, and completely hits the spot.

Categories     Dinner     Lunch     Soup

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 large shallot, chopped
1/2 serrano chile, seeds and all, chopped
fine grain sea salt
1 1/2 pounds pumpkin/squash flesh, seeded, peeled, and cut into 3/4-inch chunks
1 teaspoon fresh ginger juice, pressed from grated ginger
cooked brown rice, warm
toasted pumpkin seeds
other toppings: plain yogurt, toasted pepitas, lemon ginger rosemary butter* (and pulp)

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion, shallot, and serrano and a couple big pinches of salt. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes, then add the pumpkin and 6 cups of water (or less if you like a thicker soup), I make this one on the slightly thin side.
  • Bring just to a simmer and cook until squash is completely tender throughout, about 15 minutes. Note that the time it takes will differ between different squash/pumpkin varietals. Remove from heat and puree with a hand blender until smooth, and add the ginger juice. If you like an even thinner soup, add a bit more water at this point, then stir in more salt to taste, about 2 teaspoons.
  • Serve over a big scoop of brown rice with lots of toasted pumpkin seeds (or pepitas), a dollop of yogurt, a drizzle of lemon ginger rosemary butter (and pulp).

FROM THE PANTRY: CURRIED PUMPKIN AND WILD RICE SOUP



From the Pantry: Curried Pumpkin and Wild Rice Soup image

There's always one can of pumpkin puree kicking around after Thanksgiving. Put it to use in this ultra-flavorful soup. We use traditional cooking techniques (part mole, part curry) by making a paste with common pantry staples and frying it in oil to create a deep layer of flavor. If you don't have wild rice, just use 1/2 cup of any dry grain you have on hand.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings (1 1/4 cups each)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup wild rice blend

1/2 cup roasted cashews, almonds or peanuts, roughly chopped
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, plus more for garnish
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
One 15-ounce can pure pumpkin puree

Steps:

  • Bring a small saucepan of water to a boil. Add the rice, and simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Strain and let cool.
  • Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons of the raisins and 1 tablespoon of the vinegar in a small bowl. Let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
  • Pulse 1/4 cup of the nuts, the remaining 3 tablespoons vinegar and 2 tablespoons raisins, 2 tablespoons water, tomato paste, curry powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a food processor until a coarse paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the coarse paste, and cook, stirring frequently, until the oil begins to separate and the paste is brick red, 6 to 8 minutes. Add splashes of water if the paste sticks to the bottom of the pan at all. Add the chicken broth, pumpkin puree and 1 cup water, and whisk until blended. Bring to a simmer, whisking occasionally, and continue simmering until the soup has reduced and is slightly thicker than heavy cream, 30 to 40 minutes. Season with salt, and stir in about 3/4 of the cooked wild rice.

Pumpkin Soup with Wild Rice and Apples image

'Small Sugar Pie' pumpkins are ideal for holding hearty servings of pumpkin soup, garnished with cooked wild rice, toasted almonds, and apples-though it's just as delicious served in a regular soup bowl.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons slivered almonds
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 leek, white part only, thinly sliced
1 pumpkin (1 1/2 pound), such as 'Cheese' or 'Small Sugar Pie,' seeded, peeled, cut into 1-inch wedges, and thinly sliced (to yield about 4 cups)
1 large turnip, peeled, cut into 4 or 6 pieces, and thinly sliced
2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 large parsnip, peeled and thinly sliced
2 3/4 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 1/2 to 4 cups homemade or low-sodium canned chicken stock
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/3 cup wild rice
1 apple, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place almond slivers on a rimmed baking sheet; toast until golden brown, shaking the pan halfway through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a board and chop; set aside.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 10 minutes. Add leek; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes more. Add pumpkin, turnip, carrots, parsnip, 2 teaspoons salt, and pepper; cook, stirring, until the vegetables are well mixed and coated with butter.
  • Add 3 1/2 cups stock and thyme; bring to a boil over medium heat. Return heat to medium-low; gently simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 30 minutes.
  • Fill a saucepan with cold water. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and rice. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat. Simmer until rice is tender, about 45 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain; set aside.
  • Remove soup from heat; let cool slightly. Use an immersion blender or puree in a food processor or blender (fill blender only halfway -- hot liquids expand). Working in batches, add stock to thin if necessary. Reheat soup over medium-low heat.
  • Heat remaining tablespoon butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add apple; cook until brown and soft, about 3 minutes. Add scallions, remaining salt, and cayenne; cook until scallions soften, about 1 minute. Add rice and reserved nuts; cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe pumpkin: This will ensure the best flavor and texture for your soup.
  • Roast the pumpkin before adding it to the soup: This will caramelize the natural sugars in the pumpkin and give it a deeper, richer flavor.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: This will provide a solid foundation for the flavor of your soup.
  • Add some spices to the soup: This will help to enhance the flavor and make it more interesting. Some good options include cumin, coriander, paprika, and chili powder.
  • Don't overcook the rice: The rice should be cooked just until it is tender, but not mushy.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream: This will add a creamy richness to the soup and help to balance out the flavors.
