How to Make Pumpkin Soup Creamier

While pumpkin soup tastes delightful enough as it is, there are those (like us) who want theirs to be extra creamy.

Stir in some additional cream at the end for a rich, creamy soup. You can also use coconut milk, maple syrup or butter to get a similar effect.

I personally love adding a bit of maple syrup as it gives it just the right amount of sweetness.

If you don’t want to use cream or milk, try using yogurt instead. This is a fantastic alternative if you want to add a zesty flavor to your dish.

Stale bread also works well in making your pumpkin soup a lot creamier.

It’s a simple trick, too: just soak a few pieces of bread into your mixture before you puree it. You’ll end up with a rich, creamy dish and a filling one at that.

Incorporating a bit of cornstarch will also make your pumpkin soup thicker. Take a couple of scoops of the soup and place it in a bowl.

Mix in a few tablespoons of cornstarch and stir until it dissolves into the soup. Pour the soup back into the pot and let the cornstarch do its magic.

Seafood green onion pancake

Seafood green onion pancake maangchi’s recipe Some tips when making these pancakes: • For a vegetarian version, skip the seafood and egg and use vegetable stock. • The batter should be runny, because thick batter will clump when you cook it and your pancake won’t turn out well. • While cooking, press down and poke the pancake to make some gaps in between the green onions. You should see some steam coming up through the gaps, that means the green onions are being cooked nicely. • This pancake is too heavy to toss up and flip, so don’t try it! You’ll need a big spatula to turn it over. • Be sure to make the dipping sauce, that’s the best way to enjoy it! Ingredients Serves 2 • ½ cup all-purpose flour • 1 tablespoon potato starch(corn starch) • ½ teaspoon kosher salt plus a pinch of salt • a pinch of ground black pepper • ¾ cup stock (anchovy kelp stock, chicken stock or vegetable stock), or water • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil • 12 green onions, roots and tops trimmed to 8 to ...
