Number Of Ingredients 11

2-1/2 Quarts Chicken Stock
1/2 Pound Onion, quarter
5-2/3 Ounces Leek, chunks
1-1/8 Ounces Garlic Clove
3-3/8 Tbsp Olive Oil
1-2/3 Cups Half and Half
1/4 Cup Heavy Cream
5/8 Ounce Chicken Base
1-1/4 Pounds Pumpkin Puree, roasted
Salt and Pepper to taste
Dash Nutmeg

Steps:

Roast onions, leeks and garlic cloves in olive oil in a preheated oven at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 to 45 minutes. Remove and puree in blender.
While the onions, leeks and garlic are roasting, take advantage and roast the pumpkin as well. The pumpkin should be whole until ready to use. Cut pumpkin in half and scoop out the seeds and strings. Place pumpkin face down in a large baking pan with a 1/4 inch of water. Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour. Since the oven temperature is on 300 to roast the other vegetables, go ahead and cook the pumpkin at 300 degrees and once you remove the other items, increase the temperature to 350 and cook for an extra 15 to 30 minutes* Let cool. Puree pumpkin in blender or food processor.
Bring stock, pumpkin puree, pureed vegetables and chicken base to boil. Simmer for 45 minutes.
Add Half & Half and simmer.
Season with salt & pepper.
Finish with heavy cream.
Top with nutmeg.

*Please note that the original recipe calls for roasted pumpkin, however it does not describe how to roast it, so just in case someone had not roasted a pumpkin before, I added the information on Step 2. Everything else follows the original recipe.
