This is a very delicately flavoured soup – which is easy to make, combines spices I wouldn’t have dreamed of using in this soup and the outcome is a restaurant quality starter or lunch made at home! (I used home grown pumpkins, sage from the garden to decorate and home made chicken stock).
Pumpkin Soup with Warm Spices
Reading, Writing and Riesling 
What a warm, comforting soup, Carol! Sounds absolutely delicious! And looks lovely, too.
It is light and delicious Margot – a new cookbook is so inspiring 🙂
What sore of spices Carol? I have a recipe for a Moroccan pumpkin and lentil soup which has Moroccan spice and cumin in which makes for a lovely warming soup for winter. Looks like I need to buy this book Carol, it sounds like a book with multiple recipes to use, too often you get a cookbook with inky a couple of rcip s that you would actually make.
It has cinnamon quills and clove Janine- but your remove before blending – gives it a lovely flavour. Come Christmas time I am making the trifle in this book – I love trifle 🙂
