Chef's Note

  • Recipe adapted from Desiree Nielsen.
  • If a thinner soup is desired, add 1/2 to 1 cup of additional liquid of choice.
  • Try rinsing and patting your pumpkin seeds dry, then tossing them with olive oil, salt, pepper, turmeric, and cumin before roasting for 20 minutes to create a tasty garnish for your soup.
