MY PUMPKIN AND BARLEY SOUP

Steps:

• Heat water in a large pot on the stove. Add the can of pumpkin and bring to a boil.
• Add the rest of the ingredients. Feel free to add/reduce the spices as you wish.
• Simmer soup for approximately fifteen minutes or until the celery and onion are getting soft. If the mix seems to thick, add more water because the instant barley will have absorbed a lot of it.
• Serve either straight as it is, or garnish with some fresh dill and/or sour cream.

CHEESE PUMPKIN SOUP WITH SAGE AND APPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove about 1 cup of seeds from the pumpkin halves. Clean off any pumpkin meat from the seeds before setting them aside.
• Rub the pumpkin halves with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place them seed side down on a sheet tray lined with aluminum foil. Cook in the oven for about 50 minutes or until a sharp knife easily pierces the skin and flesh.
• Meanwhile, cut the carrots and onion into a medium dice and sauté them in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over low heat until tender. Set aside.
• Heat 1 cup of olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. When it begins to simmer, add 3 to 4 sage leaves at a time, frying them for about 6 to 8 seconds each. Remove the leaves with tongs or a slotted spoon and place on a plate lined with paper towels. Continue this process until all the sage is fried. Turn off the heat.
• Immediately place the reserved pumpkin seeds in the leftover, sage-infused oil, for about 20 seconds or until they begin to brown. Pour the contents of the pan into a metal strainer set over a metal bowl.
• Place the seeds on a plate lined with paper towels and sprinkle generously with salt. Set the oil aside to cool.
• When the pumpkin is cooked, remove it from oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Then remove and discard any seeds from the flesh.
• Scoop out the pumpkin meat from one pumpkin half and place it in a blender. Add half of the cooled carrots and onions, and one chopped apple to the blender. Add vegetable stock to the ¾ mark on the blender and close the lid. Blend on low, then gradually increase the speed as the ingredients combine. Pour the contents into a large pot or bowl. Repeat with the remaining sautéed carrots and onions, chopped apple and vegetable stock.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• To serve: ladle soup into bowls. Garnish with pumpkin seeds, 2 to 3 sage leaves and a drizzle of the reserved pumpkin-sage oil.

PUMPKIN, SAUSAGE, AND SAGE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a separate bowl.
• Melt butter in the same pot. Cook onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add water, pumpkin puree, brown sugar, sage, and salt. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until flavors combine, about 20 minutes.
• Return the cooked sausage to the pot. Pour in milk and bring soup to a gentle simmer. Taste and adjust salt as needed.
