Pumpkin Soup
Contributed by Diane A.

Here is a pumpkin soup recipe.  When I was in Australia this type of soup
was very popular.  I tried it and loved it!  There are lots of different
ways to make is.  This is from an old version of _Joy of Cooking_.

Place:
3 cups canned or 2 lb cooked fresh pumpkin

in:
3 cups scalded milk or chicken broth.

Knead together and add:
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour

Add:
1 TBSP sugar or 2 TBSP brown sugar
Salt and pepper
(ginger and cinnamon)  = optional
(3/4 cup light cream if you have used the chicken broth)

Heat, but do not boil.  Serve at once.
