A picturesque Halloween treat: Creamy Pumpkin Soup
Overview
Halloween 2016 has passed, but the delicious Halloween food should last throughout the winter. There are countless tutorials on pumpkin soup on the market, but the method of processing pumpkin is to steam or boil it. The method introduced in this article is based on the practice of British chef Gordon Ramsey, using the roasting method to bring out the fragrance of pumpkin. Secondly, the use of apples adds a fruity layer to the soup itself.
