Pumpkin soup is a usually bound soup made from a puree of pumpkin. It is made by combining the meat of a blended pumpkin with broth or stock. It can be served hot or cold, and is a popular Thanksgiving dish in the United States. Roasting the pumpkin is the only part of this recipe that takes any length of time. And once it’s done, this soup comes together fast.
