Vegan Pumpkin Soup (Without Coconut Milk)

Vegan Pumpkin Soup

I’ve learnt not long ago, that pumpkin and sage can be paired very well. It’s very handy to know, because it works in soup too, which means coconut milk isn’t needed (well, it doesn’t work well with sage in my view). So the pumpkin soup becomes a very earthy and rich in texture meal without it. It’s definitely a lovely way and because I often use coconut milk and can get bored of the taste – it’s also a refreshingly different version for me. Also, if you don’t have coconut milk at home – go for this. Dried sage will work too, you just need more of it.

I’ve learnt – again, not long ago – during a zero waste cookery class, that it’s totally fine to roast the pumpkin with the skin on and leave the skin on for the soup, because it adds some extra texture. Scrub the skin before roasting of course. And here’s another trick: do not remove the seeds before roasting, it’s much easier to remove them when they are roasted. Look:

And you can also use the seeds too.

All is all, it’s a super simple soup but very wintery and hearty.

  2. Let the pieces cool, so you can handle them. Remove seeds and set them aside if you want to use the. Peel the rougher part of the skin - but it's totally fine leave most of it on, especially the caramelised bits. It will give some extra texture to the soup.
