SPICY PUMPKIN AND SPLIT PEA SOUP

Categories     Soup/Stew     Ginger     Onion     High Fiber     Lunch     Saffron     Pumpkin     Fall     Winter     Healthy     Cinnamon     Self     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield makes six servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 tsp saffron threads
10 cups (2 1/2 quarts) chicken broth
1 1/4 cups dried yellow split peas
1 large onion, chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground ginger
6 cups peeled, seeded and cubed pumpkin (from a 3- to 4-pound pumpkin)
Minced fresh parsley

Steps:

  • In a large metal spoon or a small pan, heat saffron over low heat about 10 seconds until dry, then grind to a powder with the back of a spoon and steep in 1 tbsp boiling water to release flavor, about 1 minute. Bring broth, peas, and onion to a boil in a large soup pot over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, 30 to 40 minutes. Stir in oil, cinnamon, ginger, spoonful of saffron, and pumpkin. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. The soup is done when the pumpkin begins to fall apart and the peas are tender. Salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin. A sugar pumpkin or a butternut squash works best for this soup.
  • Roast the pumpkin before adding it to the soup. This will help to caramelize the sugars in the pumpkin and give the soup a richer flavor.
  • Use a variety of herbs in your soup. This will give the soup a more complex flavor. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, and oregano.
  • Don't overcook the soup. The vegetables should be tender but still have a little bit of a bite to them.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt. This will help to balance out the flavors of the soup.

Conclusion:

This herbed pumpkin and split pea soup is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. It is packed with vegetables and herbs, and it is sure to warm you up on a cold day. The roasted pumpkin and the split peas give the soup a smooth and creamy texture, and the herbs add a lovely flavor.

This soup is also very easy to make. Simply roast the pumpkin, cook the split peas, and then blend the two together with some broth and herbs. You can also add other vegetables to the soup, such as carrots, celery, or onions. This soup is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal.
