Comments
Used 4C pumpkin runoff (after draining the roasted pumpkin from another recipe), one can condensed chicken broth, 3 TBSP (!!) Osem powdered consome, one can condensed milk and fresh ground pepper. Did not have enough celery (and zero celery root!) so added a yellow and orange pepper along with a shishito pepper that needed using. What a great little soup! Perfect in a mug with that touch of Nutmeg to celebrate the Fall.
