Directions
  • First wash the leeks and then cut them into rings. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and sauté the leek rings until translucent. Then deglaze with a ladle of vegetable stock.
  • In the meantime, peel the pumpkin, remove the seeds and then cut into cubes. Now add the pumpkin cubes to the pot and sweat for a few minutes. Fill with the remaining vegetable broth and simmer over medium heat for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Then season with a pinch of nutmeg and season with salt and pepper. Now add the liquid cream and puree thoroughly with a hand blender until a smooth cream is formed.
  • Now press the cream through a large close-meshed sieve into another pot to obtain a velvety smooth soup. Bring everything to the boil again.
  • Pour the hot soup into deep plates, garnish with a dash of liquid cream and freshly ground pepper and serve directly.
    Buon appetito!
