Pumpkin Soup (Kiwi)

Pumpkin soup is New Zealand’s winter soup, made from the buttercup and kent pumpkins that grow so well in Kiwi gardens. It’s the traditional starter at winter dinner parties and the lunch that follows a cold morning on the farm.

Roasting the pumpkin first deepens its natural sweetness, and a swirl of cream makes the soup silky and rich. Served with thick slices of toast or fresh bread, it’s warming, simple, and utterly comforting.
