    Pumpkin Soup

    Recipe Courtesy of Ken Mignosa

    Place:

    3 Cups of canned pumpkin
    or
    2 lbs of skinned seasoned cooked fresh pumpkin

    In:

    3 Cups of scalded milk

    Add:

    1 Tablespoon of butter
    2 Tablespoon of brown sugar
    1 Teaspoon of salt (adjust to your taste)
    1 Teaspoon of pepper (adjust to your taste)
    1 pinch of saffron - or more if you can afford it :^)
    1/2 Cup finely juliened ham

    Simmer, but do not boil, stirring occasionally, until butter melts. To avoid separation of ingredients, serve immediately.

    Notes:

  • Fresh pumpkin may be steamed or pressure cooked until extremely soft
  • When steaming/pressure cooking add about 3 Tbsp sugar, 3 Tbsp brown sugar, & 2 tsp cinnamon per pound of pumpking
  • If you'd like the soup to have a smooth texture, and you are using fresh pumpkin, it's easiest to scald the milk, and put the scalded milk and pumpkin into a blender, and blend until you reach the desired consistency
  • Spices can be added to taste. Bland pumpkins will require more spice while more flavorful pumpkins (i.e. Queensland Blue) should require less spice
  • Just about any meat can be added. However more flavorful meats work best (i.e. ham, bacon, lamb)
  • Meat may be ground instead of juliened unless chunks of meat are desired for texture
  • Meat may be left, magarine may be substituted for butter, and yogurt may be substituted for milk to make this a vegetarian soup


  • Serve with fresh bread.

    Serves 2 adults & 2 kids
