Instructions
- Chop pumpkin: Halve the pumpkin and remove the seeds. Peel if necessary (Hokkaido pumpkin doesn’t need peeling, any other sort does). Cut the pumpkin into cubes.
- Peel and chop the onion, garlic, carrots, and potatoes.
- Fill the slow cooker: Place all the chopped vegetables, red chili flakes, rosemary, salt, pepper, and vegetable stock into the slow cooker.
- Cook for 5 hours on low. Check: the vegetables should be tender. If they are not, give them another 30-60 minutes.
- Blend the soup with an immersion blender (Note 3).
- Stir in the cream.
- Adjust the taste with salt, pepper, and red chili flakes. To lift the flavor, add a little lemon juice OR balsamic vinegar (to taste).

Notes
- I recommend Hokkaido pumpkin or butternut squash. Otherwise, ensure you use another flavorful pumpkin sort.
- Sub with chicken stock.
- When blending hot soups or other hot liquids, it’s preferable to use an immersion blender (Amazon affiliate link) to avoid the risk of the blender’s lid exploding. However, if you are careful, you can also use the blender. Let the soup cool a little and blend it in batches. Place a folded kitchen towel on the blender and hold it steady. Increase the speed gradually. Transfer the blended soup to a pot and repeat with another batch.
