DIRECTIONS
Cut the top off of the pumpkin and remove the seeds and strings. Carve out the flesh of the pumpkin until the shell is about 1/2 inch thick. Be careful not to make any holes in the skin - the pumpkin is the serving bowl. Steam the pumpkin flesh in a saucepan with an inch of water, over medium heat for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a saucepan over medium heat, cook the chicken broth until warm. Puree the pumpkin flesh and gradually stir into the pumpkin broth. Slowly bring the mixture to a boil. Mix in the cream then season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Remove from heat. Pour soup into the pumpkin shell and garnish with croutons. Top with the pumpkin cap.
What I did.....
put in the crock pot set on 4 hours high
2 quarts of pumpkin (canned pumpkin or squash will work too. See what looks good at the market)
32 oz box of low sodium chicken stock
1 heaping tablespoon of chicken boullion
when finished cooking, it will look a little darker and translucent.
Zip with stickblender until smooth and add 1.5-2 cups half & half.
Add 1 heaping tablespoon of Morroccan Seasoning ( or more or less to taste)
