I was going to make this and take a picture but I'm running a little behind. Here's the recipe I mentioned in the other thread for those who are brave enough to try it. I've been making this for the past 3 years and it's definitely good stuff.
6 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 cups pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon chopped parsley (It's garnish. Don't get excited)
1 cup chopped onion (Very optional...very)
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
5 whole black peppercorns
Heat stock, salt, pumpkin, onion (optional I say!!), thyme, garlic, and peppercorns.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
Puree the soup in small batches (1-2 cups at a time) using a food processor or blender. If you use the pumpkin from a can and don't add in onions this step isn't as critical. If you use fresh pumpkin puree it would definitely make things smoother.
Return to pan and bring to a boil again. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for another 30 minutes. Stir in heavy cream.
That's it. If you do it right it's a great autumn soup. If you screw it up you're haunted.
