Notes
- One of our favourite ways to use leftovers of this canned pumpkin soup is to use it as a pasta sauce.
- We recommend using an immersion blender for this as putting hot soup in a jug blend can cause it to crack.
- Finish the soup off with some roasted pumpkin seeds.
- Fresh sage also goes really well with pumpkin.
- When you add the milk, make sure the heat is turned off.
- For a sweeter pumpkin soup, you can add a little bit of maple syrup.
