 Creamy Pumpkin Soup Melanie

I do not like Pumpkin soup.  This is a great soup.  This recipe was given to me by  Melanie, wife of Ray (see Rays Favorite Soup).  Come Autumn, try this soup.  If you love it, I will try to introduce you to Melanie.  She is a wonderful person, but she does not suffer fools very well.

Ingredients:

Ingredients

2 teaspoons butter

3/4 teaspoons dried rubbed Sage

1/4 teaspoon ground Nutmeg

3 10 1/2 ounce cans chicken broth

1 tablespoon Tomato paste

1 pound canned pumpkin (not pie mix!)

1 cup peeled, chopped McIntosh apple

1/2 cup evaporated skim milk

1 cup chopped onion

1/2 teaspoon curry powder

3 Tablespoons all purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt



Directions:

Melt butter in Dutch oven over medium heat.  Add onion and saute three minutes.  Add sage, curry and nutmeg; cook 30 seconds.  Add broth, tomato paste and salt, stirring well with wisk.  Stir in pumpkin and apple and bring to a boil.  Cover, reduce heat and simmer until apples are tender, stirring occasionally.  Remove from heat and cool slightly.  Place in blender and process until smooth.  Return to Dutch oven and add milk.  Cook until thoroughly heated, but do not boil.

Make many copies of this recipe.  Those who do not like Pumpkin soup will ask you for it.
