SECRET INGREDIENT PUMPKIN SOUP
A recipe shared by a friend on the now extinct Cooks recipe forum ages ago on Compuserve. The secret ingredient is the tomato paste. You can serve this in a large hollowed out pumpkin, with freshly ground nutmeg, sour cream and sliced scallions on the side to allow guests to garnish as they desire.
