Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 grams pumpkin (peeled, seeded, and cubed)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 240 milliliters vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the cubed pumpkin to the pot and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the edges start to soften and become slightly golden.
Pour in the vegetable stock, then add the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper.
Stir well, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 15 minutes, or until the pumpkin is tender when pierced with a fork.
Using an immersion blender, blend the pumpkin mixture until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, transfer the mixture in batches to a countertop blender. Be cautious when blending hot liquids.
Once smooth, stir in the heavy cream and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on low heat until fully incorporated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or spices as desired.
Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
