Creamy Pumpkin Soup

Directions

  1. Prepare 10 cups of LeGout Cream Soup Base according to the package directions.
  2. In a large soup pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, dried sage, cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove, and sauté for 5–7 minutes until very fragrant.
  3. Slowly whisk in the prepared LeGout Cream Soup Base and pumpkin purée. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 20–25 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
