PUMPKIN SPICE SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Slice off stem end of pumpkin, then halve pumpkin. Use a spoon to scoop out seeds and fibers; discard seeds or save for another use. Place pumpkin halves cut-side down on baking sheet. Roast until the pumpkin's flesh is very soft and pierces easily with a paring knife, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to cutting board until the pumpkin flesh is cool enough to handle. Scoop flesh away from skin with a spoon; discard skin and set flesh aside.
• Heat butter in large pot over medium heat. Add onion, apple and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in broth, roasted pumpkin, pumpkin spice and salt. Bring to a boil, adjust heat and simmer until the apple is very soft, about 20 minutes. Puree soup with an immersion blender or transfer in small batches to a blender, puree and return to the pot. Stir in ¼ cup of the crème fraîche.
• Reheat soup if necessary. Ladle into bowls and swirl about ½ tablespoon of crème fraîche into each. Top each bowl with dill, tarragon and sesame seeds. Sprinkle with pink peppercorns and flaky salt and serve.

SPICY PUMPKIN SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Remove the stems, slice them into quarters (or eighths), and remove the innards and seeds. Reserve the seeds, if desired. Peel the pumpkin and chop up the pumpkin flesh. The yield of fresh pumpkin is about 12 cups, or 3 pounds in weight of peeled pumpkin. It's OK if you're off a little. Set them aside for now.
• Add ½ cup peanut oil to a large pot and heat to medium heat. Add flour and stir. Cook for 10-15 minutes, constantly stirring, until the roux turns a light blonde brown. You can cook it longer for a darker, richer color and flavor.
• Add pumpkin, peppers, onion, celery and garlic. Stir and cook about 5 minutes.
• Add Cajun seasoning and chicken stock. Scrape up the brown bits from the bottom.
• Cook at medium-low heat for 30 minutes to thicken. You can simmer longer if you'd like. I often simmer for 1 hour.
• Process the mixture with an immersion blender, or transfer the soup in batches to a blender or food processor. Process until smooth.
• Stir in the heavy cream.
• Serve into bowls and garnish with fresh chopped herbs, spicy chili flakes and a swirl of extra virgin olive oil.

CREAMY SPICED PUMPKIN SOUP

Steps:

Add the apple, garlic, ginger, and thyme and saute until garlic and ginger are fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in salt, pepper, cinnamon, cloves. Pour in Swanson® Unsalted Chicken Broth and pumpkin puree; mix thoroughly. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and gently simmer until flavors have blended and apples are very soft, 30 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat. Puree the soup with an immersion blender until soup is smooth. Return pot to stove; bring soup back to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer for an additional 30 minutes.
• Remove pot from heat; stir in cream. Serve with your choice of garnishes including crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, sour cream, seasoned croutons.

SPICY PUMPKIN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds with a spoon (see tip below). Cut into wedges or chunks (keep the skin on) and tip into a bowl. Put the garam masala, and 1 tsp each of the coriander and cumin into a small bowl and mix with 2 tbsp of the oil and season. Drizzle over the pumpkin and toss well to coat in the spiced oil. Transfer to a baking tray, spread out evenly and roast for 40-45 mins, turning halfway through cooking, until the pumpkin is very soft when pierced with a fork. Leave to cool on the tray for a few minutes.
• Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan and fry the onion with a pinch of salt for 10 mins until soft. Add the ginger, garlic and remaining spices and chilli flakes, and fry for a few more minutes until fragrant. Pour in the stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
• When the pumpkin is cool enough to touch, use a spoon to scoop the soft flesh from the skins. Add the soft pumpkin to the stock pan, discarding the skins. Remove from the heat and blitz the soup with a hand blender until creamy and smooth. Season to taste, adding extra chilli or garam masala if you like. Put back over a low heat and stir in the cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, then serve in bowls with a drizzle more cream and a pinch of chilli to serve. Top with toasted pumpkin seeds, if you like.
