Pumpkin Soup Classic And Easy Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute onion in butter until tender. Remove from the heat; stir in flour until smooth. Gradually stir in the broth, pumpkin, brown sugar, salt, pepper and nutmeg; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add cream; cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
• Cook chopped onions until soft and golden brown.
• Heat the broth in a good-sized pot, add pumpkin slowly, and bring to a partial boil.
• Stir in onions, milk, polenta, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, salt, and pepper (pressed garlic might be suitable at this time).
• Make sure that the ingredients do not clump but are spread throughout the soup.
• Cook for about 5 minutes or longer until all ingredients have been thoroughly mixed and dissolved and so the soup is thoroughly heated.
• If at this point it seems chunkier or thicker than desired; use an immersion blender or a regular one to liquefy the soup and blend in the onions.
• Serve warm with pieces of bread if desired.

Steps:

• Heat stock, salt, pumpkin, onion, thyme, garlic, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes uncovered.
• Puree the soup in small batches (1 cup at a time) using a food processor or blender.
• Return to pan, and bring to a boil again. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for another 30 minutes, uncovered. Stir in heavy cream. Pour into soup bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.

Steps:

• Heat butter in a 4 quart saucepan. Saute onion for about 5 minutes or until tender. Add the pumpkin and bring to a simmer until you are ready to eat. (Note that if the soup is too thin, you can soak the bread in some more broth and when tender, add it to the soup) Season to taste with salt and pepper and a very fine touch of ground mace. Right before serving, remove the hot soup from the heat and add the cheese. (For company you can whisk in some heavy cream before serving or top the soup with sour cream). Garnish with snipped chives.

Steps:

• Combine pumpkin and 1/3 of the chicken broth in a deep pan over medium-low heat. Simmer, covered, until pumpkin is soft, about 15 minutes.
• Remove from heat and puree with an immersion blender. Add remaining chicken broth, sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.
• Ladle into bowls and serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan, then gently cook 2 finely chopped onions for 5 mins, until soft but not coloured.
• Add 1kg pumpkin or squash, cut into chunks, to the pan, then carry on cooking for 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally until it starts to soften and turn golden.
• Pour 700ml vegetable or chicken stock into the pan and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins until the squash is very soft.
• Pour 150ml double cream into the pan, bring back to the boil, then purée with a hand blender. For an extra-velvety consistency you can pour the soup through a fine sieve. The soup can now be frozen for up to 2 months.
• To make the croutons: cut 4 slices wholemeal seeded bread into small squares.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan, then fry the bread until it starts to become crisp.
• Add a handful of pumpkin seeds to the pan, then cook for a few mins more until they are toasted. These can be made a day ahead and stored in an airtight container.
• Reheat the soup if needed, taste for seasoning, then serve scattered with croutons and seeds and drizzled with more olive oil, if you want.

Steps:

• Very Finely chop onion and saute in a small amount of butter until very soft and starting to caramelize.
• Then add pumpkin, stock, salt, pepper, spices and sweetening to taste.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, leave uncovered and chase the kids, clean the house, etc for one hour (or more)!

• Increase heat and add to soup, boil until thickened (maybe a couple of minutes) Remove from heat and add cream.
• Enjoy with a good bread.
• Great prepared ahead!
• Cook until cream step, save in frig or freeze, then add cream in right before serving.
