Recipe Review: Pumpkin Soup from the UK Basic Cookbook page 98
« on: January 07, 2015, 12:50:14 pm »
I followed the recipe chip,the result was a smooth velvety soup.I used a Butternut Squash/ Pumpkin.I did cook the soup an extra 5 minutes as I'm always conscious of cooking the potato well.The ginger gave the soup a beautiful fragrance and the cashews a creaminess.
This recipe is totally different to the new EDC.
I might tweak it next time by adding a teaspoon of vegetable stock concentrate.
Just a warning, be careful if you use the white pepper as stated as it more potent than black.

CC,  that sounds very nice.  I have made the pumpkin soup from the chip .  We love as it is very plain.  I use home made chicken stock.
Will try the extras next time.
