Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • ¼ large yellow onion sliced
  • 1 small carrot peeled and cut into small chunks
  • 1 stalk celery cut into small chunks
  • 2 cloves garlic smashed
  • ½ inch piece ginger cut in half
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 15 oz. can pumpkin puree
  • 3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 sprigs thyme
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • white pepper to taste
  • chili garlic crisp as garnish, optional
  • toasted pumpkin seeds and sesame seeds as garnish, optional

Instructions
 

  • Heat the avocado oil in a medium pot (large pot if doubling the recipe) over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, ginger, and a big pinch of Kosher salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, until starting to turn a light golden brown.
  • Add pumpkin puree, stock, miso paste, and thyme and bring to a boil. Cover tightly and turn heat to low and cook until all the vegetables are tender, 1 hour.
  • Blend until smooth with the soy sauce and sesame oil. Season with Kosher salt and white pepper, to taste.
  • Serve in bowls drizzled with chili garlic crisp and sprinkled with pumpkin and sesame seeds.
