How to make it
- DIRECTIONS
- Take some cooking twine and tie the rosemary sprigs firmly into one bundle, leaving a long piece of string attached to the sprigs (about 1 foot in length).
- In a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat, soften the pumpkin onion and ginger in a little butter and oil.
- Add a splash of white wine and turn the heat up to high and reduce the wine until almost all the liquid is gone.
- Pour in the stock, the rosemary (tying the excess string to the handle of the pot) bring to the boil and reduce to simmer, for approx 1/2-3/4 hr.
- Add the cream and simmer a further 15 minutes.
- Remove the rosemary sprigs; blend the soup with a handheld stick blender or in a food processor until smooth.
- Pour the soup through a fine sieve back into the saucepan, (you will need to stir it in the sieve to help it through).
- Return the soup to a low heat and season to taste.
- Garnish with a little drizzle of fresh cream and serve with some garlic rubbed crusty bread on the side.

Okay, it happened again -- I came on to check something else, but ended up here. I think you do this on purpose -- are you spying on me? How do you know my love for this soup? Pumpkin, acorn, Hubbard... the list goes on. As if that weren't enough...more
