PUMPKIN APPLE SOUP



Pumpkin Apple Soup image

I often make a butternut squash soup on the stove in the fall. This year, I had pumpkins from a local farm, but only enough time to make something in the slow cooker! The apples set the soup off perfectly. If using fresh pumpkin, be sure to puree it well to avoid stringy soup. -Rebecca Phillips, Fayetteville, North Carolina

PUMPKIN SOUP WITH CHILI CRAN-APPLE RELISH (FROM RACHAEL RAY)



Pumpkin Soup With Chili Cran-Apple Relish (From Rachael Ray) image

Rachael Ray made this soup on her TV Food Network Thanksgiving Special show in 2004, "Thanksgiving in 60" (minutes) -- episode TMSP02. I don't think it appears in any of her cookbooks, because it wouldn't fit into the typical 30 minute meal, but it is available on the TVFN website, at least for a while. I downloaded the recipe, tried it and it tastes as wonderful as I thought it would ... clearly what makes this soup different from all the other "spicy pumpkin soup" recipes is the base of celery and onions, the use of a roux with chicken stock and the spicy relish/garnish ... It looks scary, with all the ingredients, but it's actually very fast, simple and delicious -- exactly as Rachael promised ... and if you love pumpkin soups, this will be a change from the usual ... Also, to make this kosher (meat), substitute coconut milk for the cream and use a kosher chicken stock. Flavor is more like a Thai pumpkin soup, with hot sauce rather than chili paste, but it works quite well. To make it kosher (milk), substitute a vegetable stock for the chicken stock. The mouth feel will be quite different but the flavor should be good. Be careful of the sodium content of the vegetable stock -- you will have to adjust the seasonings and may want to start by skipping the salt entirely in the Vegetable Base part. To make it kosher (parve), do both substitutions -- I have not tried the last two variations, so I can't vouch for the resulting flavor. Rachel says this makes 4 servings as an entree or 8 as a first course. Personally, I found 6 as a first course seemed more reasonable. The dietary information is based on a yield of 8 servings from this recipe.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 fresh bay leaf
2 stalks celery & leaves, finely chopped
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning (modified per review) or 2 teaspoons ground thyme (modified per review)
2 tablespoons hot sauce
6 cups chicken stock
28 ounces cooked pumpkin puree
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
1 crisp apple, finely chopped (McIntosh or Granny Smith)
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries, chopped
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the Vegetable Base (steps 2-6).
  • Heat a medium size pot over medium to medium high heat.
  • Add the oil, then the butter (the oil prevents the butter from burning); I prefer unsalted butter, but salted is OK-- just adjust the amount of salt you use in the seasoning step appropriately.
  • Once the butter has melted, add the celery, onion, and bay leaf; If you don't have fresh bay, you can use dried, but you'll have to use less and the amount will depend on how old your herb is.
  • Season with salt and pepper (Remember, you'll be able to adjust seasoning later, and if you're using canned chicken stock, it can be very salty, so if in doubt, go lightly at this stage).
  • Cook until tender, 6-7 minutes.
  • Add the Roux (steps 8-10).
  • Add the flour, poultry seasoning and hot sauce (I use Tabasco, but any brand will do).
  • Cook for 1-2 minutes, to let the flour cook-- you want a golden brown color, not a dark brown.
  • Whisk in the chicken stock (I use a low sodium variety, but again, as long as you adjust for the amount of sodium, any brand will do) and bring the liquid to a bubble (above a simmer, but not a boil).
  • Add the Pumpkin and Main Ingredients (steps 12-15).
  • Whisk in the pumpkin in large spoonfuls.
  • Simmer for 10 minutes to let all the ingredients thicken and the flavors come together.
  • Add the cream and nutmeg and stir to combine.
  • Reduce the heat to low and keep warm until ready to serve.
  • To Make the Chili Cran-Apple Relish (garnish), combine all the relish ingredients (apple, onion, lemon juice, cranberries, chili powder, honey, cinnamon), then adjust the seasonings in the relish.
  • To Serve (Presentation), adjust the seasonings in the soup, serve the soup in shallow bowls, and put several spoonfuls of the relish on top.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by Tammy Bovender

Categories     Other Soups

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 can(s) pumpkin puree 30 ounces
6 slice bacon of your choice
3 medium granny smith apples
5 c chicken broth, low salt

  • 2. Core, peel and chop apples into small to medium chunks and set aside.
  • 3. Prepare bacon by cooking crisp, then crumbling into bacon bits, and set aside.
  • 4. In a large dutch oven, heat the bacon grease, then add in the onions, apples and spices until onions are translucent (approximately 8-10 minutes) medium-high heat.
  • 5. Add in the chicken broth and bring to a boil on high heat until the apples are soft.

  • 7. With an immersion blender, puree the soup, adding in the heavy cream. (You may substitute softened, chunked cream cheese also).
  • 8. I do not have an immersion blender, so I placed the soup in batches in my blender adding in the cream. Soup will be velvety. Like a bisque. You may also, leave some bacon bits aside to garnish on top and add some pumpkin seeds to the top for a nice added touch.

PUMPKIN SOUP WITH ANCHO AND APPLE



Pumpkin Soup With Ancho and Apple image

Chances are the contents of that can of pumpkin purée you may be using for pie, soup, biscuits, custard, ice cream or bread came from Illinois. It's the state that produces the most pumpkin for canning. This vibrant soup, from the chef Rick Bayless, an owner of Frontera Grill and Topolobampo in Chicago, is inspired by Mexico, where pumpkin is as typical an ingredient as the pepitas, ancho chile, canela and crema that are also in the recipe. His original calls for fresh squash or pumpkin - about 1 1/2 pounds, peeled, seeded, cut in chunks and added to the pot with the apple. But Mr. Bayless was amenable to adapting his recipe for canned purée, paying homage to Illinois.

PUMPKIN SOUP WITH ANCHO AND APPLE



PUMPKIN SOUP WITH ANCHO AND APPLE image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Stew     Apple

Yield 6 ea

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup pepitas (shelled pumpkin seeds)
1 medium onion, sliced 1/4-inch thick
1 dried ancho chile, stemmed, seeded and torn in small strips
1 apple, peeled, cored and chopped
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cinnamon, preferably Mexican canela
3 cups plain canned pumpkin (about 1 1/2 cans)
Salt to taste
½ teaspoon sugar
½ cup Mexican crema, or crème fraîche, mascarpone or sour cream

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan. Add half the pepitas and the onion and cook, stirring, on medium heat, until the onion is golden and the pepitas have started to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the chile pieces, cook a minute or two, then add the apple, black pepper, cinnamon and pumpkin. Stir in 4 cups water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small skillet, toast the remaining pepitas on medium heat and set aside. Pureé the soup in a blender. (You will need two shifts.) Return the soup to saucepan and season with salt and the sugar. Serve the soup in warm bowls with a dollop of crema and a sprinkling of toasted pepitas on top.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin. Sugar pumpkins or pie pumpkins are the best choices for pumpkin soup because they are sweet and flavorful. Avoid using field pumpkins, which are large and bland.
  • Roast the pumpkin before adding it to the soup. Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the pumpkin in the oven or in a skillet on the stovetop.
  • Use a variety of apples. Different types of apples will give your soup different flavors. For a tart soup, use Granny Smith apples. For a sweeter soup, use Honeycrisp or Gala apples.
  • Add spices to taste. Pumpkin and apple soup is a great canvas for spices. Common spices used in this soup include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
  • Don't overcook the soup. Overcooked soup will be bland and mushy. Cook the soup just until the vegetables are tender.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin apple soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for fall. It is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin and apples. This soup can be served as a starter, main course, or side dish. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
