Number Of Ingredients 7

1.2 kg / 2.4 lb pumpkin (any type) OR butternut squash (, unpeeled weight (Note 1))
1 onion, sliced ((white, brown, yellow))
2 garlic cloves (, peeled whole)
3 cups (750ml) vegetable or chicken broth/stock (, low sodium)
1 cup (250 ml) water
Salt and pepper
1/2 - 3/4 cup (125 - 185 ml) cream (, half and half or milk (Note 2))

  • Remove from heat and use a stick blender to blend until smooth (Note 3 for blender).
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper, stir through cream (never boil soup after adding soup, cream will split).

PARTY HIT CREAMY PUMPKIN SOUP



Party Hit Creamy Pumpkin Soup image

This incredible creamy soup was the surprise favorite at our 2000 Halloween party. Better yet, it's really easy to make - and beautiful, served in its own attractively carved pumpkin-bowl, with a seasonal ribbon tied through the 'hat' to make a handle. This 'definitely' belongs on the holiday table again! If you're going to multiply the recipe but want to serve in one bowl, get a bigger pumpkin rather than more little ones.

Tips:

- For a richer flavor, roast the pumpkin before making the soup. This will caramelize the natural sugars and give the soup a deeper, more complex flavor. - Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of the soup. - Don't be afraid to add spices to the soup. Pumpkin soup is a great canvas for spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. - If you want a thicker soup, add a little bit of cornstarch or flour. Be sure to whisk it into the soup until it's completely dissolved. - Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of chopped pumpkin seeds, or a drizzle of olive oil.
