Do you have pumpkins left over? Make the best soup of the fall!
The orange pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo) is a fantastic ingredient if you want to try making an example and heating good pumpkin soup for dinner.
A ripe pumpkin makes a hollow sound when tapped. When you split it, you can also feel a slightly sweet smell, it is part of the starch in it that has been converted to sugar. Ready for the pot, in other words. Try my delicious recipe! /Anna
