Passaggi

Wash the Hokkaido pumpkin, remove the seeds and cut the pumpkin into rough cubes. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic.

Heat the olive oil in a large pot. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.

Add the pumpkin cubes to the pot and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the pumpkin is very soft.

While the soup simmers, roast the pumpkin seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes until golden brown and fragrant. Set aside.

Remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy.

Stir in the cooking cream. Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat gently if needed, but do not boil.

Ladle the hot pumpkin soup into bowls and sprinkle with the roasted pumpkin seeds before serving.
