I bought a can of pumpkin and would like to make pumpkin soup. Has anyone made pumpkin soup? Help!!!!:rolleyes

My favorite recipe (and hubby's favorite soup, bar none) is Black Bean Pumpkin Soup Recipe at Epicurious.com. Everyone loves it, but no one can identify pumpkin as the main ingredient.

I make a great pumpkin soup that is sweet yet savory. It is Emeril's recipe. Google it by typing in Emeril pumpkin soup. It uses a chicken stock base and has peanut butter in it (as a thickener), so make sure it is the right recipe. I took it to a bonfire one year and served it in an actual pumpkin. YUM!

Oh yes, I take a carton of Velish Pumpkin soup or some homemade pumpkin soup (cut up a butternut pumpkin - you guys call it butternut squash I think - chicken stock, onion, its too easy) and add a huge dollop of peanut butter, some sour cream and a good amount of curry powder. I got that recipe here and it is sooooooo good. I make it all the time, it'd be perfect for thicker liquids.

No, but I love it. I went on a cruise for my preop diet...knew I'd crack if I tried to do it at home...being a food addict.

The first night at dinner, we had pumpkin soup for the soup. WOW! I loved it. So I had 3 bowls, instead of the main course.

I guess I need to get a recipe for that one!

Lessenless, Thank you for the tip about the black bean/pumpkin soup. I went to that site, made a copy and made the soup last nite. Very, very good and interesting--kind of a southwest-mex type soup. Loved it and I will be making it again I'm sure.. Victoria52

Ok - OMG - I had this for the first time the other day and it was SOO good. Nice and hearty, but more like a dessert.</.

It was at our local organic grocery store. The listed ingredients were "pumpkin, heavy whipping cream" but there was other stuff in it, I could see the seasonings & seeds or whatever they were.

I went back the same day and bought a big container to take home for dinner (it was the soup on the salad bar). They haven't had it since.
