I love making pumpkin stew. While I’ve generally used a small amount of lard, it’s not required. The secret is cumin, black pepper, and some sort of kicker like cayenne. Basically sautee onions, carrots, and mushroom. Add in pumpkin and water. Once it starts simmering for about an hour, you hit it with the immersion blender. Additional spices I tossed in last time were things like celery seed and I think I used a little cardnamon and allspice. Making it vegan, a dash of MSG wouldn’t hurt. Just keep cooking till it’s ideal.
Will so! It is soup season, love a good warming meal. My partner still hasn’t forgiven me for making our last squash soup with too much spice though so I’ll lean off the heat this time, haha. Thanks!
