Instructions
Place all of the soup ingredients in a saucepan:
- Place cubed pumpkin, onion, garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper in a medium saucepan. Pour in the vegetable stock and water.
Cook until all the vegetables are softened:
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, turn down the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until a knife inserted into a pumpkin comes in and out easily.
Blend the soup:
- Use an immersion blender or transfer the hot mixture into a food processor or a blender and process until all the pumpkin is pureed.
Finish & Serve:
- Transfer it back to the pan and boil it one last time. Taste for seasoning and add more if necessary.
- When ready to serve, if desired, sprinkle it with toasted coconut flakes, a pinch of cayenne and/or fresh sage.
Notes
- A few ways to switch it up:
- Instructions to store leftovers & freeze:
- The pumpkin ginger soup will keep best in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- To freeze, cool completely and transfer to a freezer-safe container. Label, date, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge.
- When ready to reheat, bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, reheat individual portions in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals until warmed through.
- Use Roasted Pumpkin to make Roasted Pumpkin Ginger Soup: For a touch more depth, roast the cubed pumpkin in a preheated 350-degree oven for 30-40 minutes, or until tender. Add to the simmering vegetable broth, season to taste, and blend straight away.
- Add in an Apple and make Pumpkin Apple Soup: Add 1 peeled, cored, and diced apple along with the pumpkin. This adds a subtle sweetness that balances the earthy pumpkin flavor.
- Swap a portion of the broth with Coconut Milk: Replace 1 cup of vegetable broth with 1 cup of coconut milk. For best results, add the coconut milk at the very end after blending. Adjust seasonings accordingly.
