Totally amazing.
Hi, when you say dont peel, that means just to use the whole pumpkin? not to cut it into blocks and leave the outside like you would a potato??
Thank you for this wonderful & easy- to- make recipe! I was very sceptical about using the peel too, but it really worked.
Even my husband (who usually hates pureed soups) said it was one of the best pumpkin soups he´s ever tasted!
It´s an absolutely perfect dish for Haloween too.....really very very tasty. Thank you very much. I would very definitely make this again! Wintery good wishes from Berlin, Germany.
delicious! easy one to make.
