PUMPKIN CHILE VICHYSSOISE
Sweet pumpkin, smoky chiles, and tangy buttermilk make this a great cold-weather soup. Be creative with substituting other spices (cinnamon, ginger, cloves, cumin, etc.) to change the feel of the soup. It's great hot or cold with a bit of creme fraiche.

[email protected]I had high hopes for this soup, but it was just okay. The flavor was a bit one-dimensional and the texture was a bit too thick. I probably won't make it again.
