Talking About the Pumpkin Soup

 

  • Start with the pumpkin first, I use one medium sugar pumpkin for this recipe. I also tried this recipe with butternut squash but the flavor was not deep as I want so I highly recommend using pumpkin instead of butternut squash.

  • I did add the sweet potato both Japanese purple potato and Japanese orange potato to thicken the texture and make the soup more creamy but there is also a purpose for color.

  • Next, sauté onion, garlic, and ginger in a pan until release aroma. I highly recommend adding celery and carrots for a natural base soup. Then season with salt, ground black pepper, and a good pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg.

  • Finally, to add richness and make the soup super creamy, stir it with non-dairy cream. I didn't use coconut cream for this recipe because I don't want to overwhelm the flavor of coconut cream in the soup. It's the secret to getting the real flavor of pumpkin soup!

  • Top with crispy and aromatic croutons plus the various type of nuts to take the soup to another level!

Now comes the crispy croutons over the pumpkin soup!

 

  • Cut a couple of slices of bread into cubes and coat them with olive oil, salt, and rosemary.

  • To add the aromatic fragrance croutons I went with a mix of cinnamon powder and nutmeg, as both of them fit well with pumpkin soup.

  • Once all the ingredients are coated all over the bread cubes, then bake for 5 minutes in the air flyer, or until crispy and golden brown.

Watch out for the human traffickers at hivefest. You wont know it until its too late. STAY AWAY! Beware, traffickers can be women or men! They will act nice until they dont. There is human trafficking going on around this type of crypto. I have witnessed it. They literally have attempted my murder and are trying to kill me with V2K and RNM. Five years this has been happening to me, it started here, around people that are still here. Homeland security has done nothing at all, they are not here to protect us. Dont we pay them to stop shit like this? The NSA, CIA, FBI, Police and our Government has done nothing. Just like they did with the Havana Syndrome, nothing. Patriot Act my ass. The American government is completely incompetent. The NSA should be taken over by the military and contained Immediately for investigation. I bet we can get to the sources of V2K and RNM then. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism ..... https://ecency.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem if you run into one of them you may want to immediately shoot them in the face. 187, annihilate, asphyxiate, assassinate, behead, bleed, bludgeon, boil, bomb, bone, burn, bury, butcher, cap, casket, choke, chop, club, crucify, crush, curb, decapitate, decimate, deflesh, demolish, destroy, devein, disembowel, dismember, drown, electrocute, eliminate, end, euthanize, eviscerate, execute, explode, exterminate, extinguish, finish, fry, grind, guillotine, gut, hack, hang, hit, ice, implode, incinerate, kill, liquidate, lynch, massacre, maul, microwave, mutilate, neutralize, obliterate, off, pop, poison, punnish, quarter, ruin, shank, shock, shoot, shred, skin, slay, slaughter, smoke, smother, snipe, snuff, squish, stab, strangle, stone, suffocate, suicide, SWAT, swing, terminate, torture, terrorize, whack, waste, wreck.
