Pacific Giant Pumpkin Soup
This pumpkin makes the best soup.
Better than butternut Squash.
Of course pumpkin is a squash. All squashes and pumpkins aren't created equal.
I garnish my squash soup with strawberry homemade preserves. Some use cream or sour cream or yogurt even.
This soup is made with pumpkin 5 cups steamed
Celery and 1/2 onion, 1 carrot, 5 florets cauliflower, vegetable broth, hot pepper flakes and curry powder with salt and pepper.
I cook ingredients until softish then purée until smooth.
I keep it warm all day in a thick black bean pot and serve with a thick slice of walnut cranberry artisan bread.
And salad......
Great winter fare.
