Categories     Soup/Stew     Milk/Cream     Blender     Mixer     Thanksgiving     Bell Pepper     Carrot     Pumpkin     Fall     Chill     Simmer     Gourmet

Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings (about 14 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 22

For mousse
1 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained, rinsed, and patted dry
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon Sherry vinegar
1/4 teaspoon hot smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin (from a 1/4-ounce envelope)
2 tablespoons water
1/3 cup chilled heavy cream
For soup
5 carrots, chopped (1 1/2 cups)
1 large onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 4- to 4 1/2-pound pumpkin or butternut squash, seeded, peeled, and cut into 1-inch pieces (9 cups)
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
5 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth (40 fluid ounces)
3 1/2 cups water
Accompaniment: onion-rye flatbreads

Steps:

  • Make mousse:
  • Purée peppers, oil, vinegar, paprika, and salt in a blender or food processor until very smooth.
  • Sprinkle gelatin over water in a 1-quart heavy saucepan and let stand 2 minutes to soften. Heat mixture over low heat, stirring, just until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat and whisk in pepper purée 1 tablespoon at a time.
  • Beat cream in a bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until it just holds soft peaks. Fold in pepper mixture gently but thoroughly, then cover surface of mousse with plastic wrap and chill until set, at least 2 hours.
  • Make soup while mousse chills:
  • Cook carrots, onion, garlic, and bay leaf in oil in a 6- to 8-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, 5 to 6 minutes. Add pumpkin, salt, cumin, and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until pumpkin begins to soften around edges, about 15 minutes. Stir in broth and water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until vegetables are very tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
  • Blend soup in batches in cleaned blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids), transferring to a bowl.
  • Just before serving, return soup to pot and reheat over low heat. Ladle soup into bowls and top each serving with 1 1/2 tablespoons mousse.

PUMPKIN SOUP



Pumpkin Soup image

This is the simplest ever pumpkin soup where the pure, sweet taste of pumpkin is married with the slightly sharp one of yogurt. The large orange-fleshed pumpkins are winter vegetables, but you can find them throughout the year in Asian and Middle Eastern stores, sold by the slice, with their seeds and fibers removed, and wrapped in plastic wrap.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 pounds pumpkin
4 1/2 cups chicken stock (or use 2 bouillon cubes)
1 to 2 teaspoons sugar
Salt and black pepper
To serve: 1 cup plain whole-milk or strained Greek-style yogurt, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Remove the peel and any seeds and fiber from the pumpkin and cut the flesh into pieces. The peel is extremely hard and you have to cut it away by laying the slices or chunks flat on a board, cut side down, and then pressing down with a large heavy knife to cut the skin off.
  • Put the pieces in a large pan with only about 1 1/2 cups stock (it will not cover the pieces), and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender.
  • Blend to a purée in the food processor, or mash it with a potato masher, and return to the pan. Add the remaining stock, the sugar, and a little salt and pepper, and cook for a few minutes more, adding water to thin the soup, if necessary.
  • Serve the soup hot, and pass around the yogurt in a bowl for people to help themselves.

PUMPKIN SOUP



Pumpkin Soup image

All of the best flavors of an American Thanksgiving are featured in this fall soup. The benefit of using vegetable stock is twofold: most important to me is taste-vegetable stock, as opposed to rich chicken stock, melds seamlessly with the pumpkin, thinning its body without competing with the flavor. It also means that this soup is a perfect option for vegetarian guests. Trust me; everyone at the table with be happy with this tasty offering.

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 (15-ounce) cans pumpkin puree, not flavored pie filling (about 3 1/2 cups)
3 to 4 1/2 cups vegetable stock or chicken stock, homemade (page 241 or 240) or store-bought, as needed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground Mexican cinnamon (canela) or additional ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1/4 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cranberry-Maple Crème Fraîche (recipe follows)
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted (see page 250)
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
2 cups cranberry juice
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon maple extract
1 cup crème fraîche or sour cream
Kosher salt
(makes about 1 1/4 cups)

Steps:

  • Put the pumpkin puree in a large saucepan, whisk in 3 cups of the stock, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the cinnamon, Mexican cinnamon, allspice, cloves, honey, and maple syrup. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Whisk in up to 1 1/2 cups more stock if the soup is too thick. Remove from the heat and whisk in the crème fraîche. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and top each with a large dollop of the cranberry-maple crème fraîche and some of the pumpkin seeds and chives.
  • Bring the cranberry juice to a boil in a small saucepan over high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened and reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the maple syrup and maple extract, and let cool to room temperature.
  • Put the crème fraîche into a small bowl, add the cranberry mixture, and stir to combine. Season with salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day to allow the flavors to meld.
