This is a very comforting, delicious and easy soup! I wanted to make this 'yesterday'! So went to my pantry and found a can of pumpkin (used 2 cups), cayenne for the jalapeno and used Madras curry powder. Made this a day before serving to let the flavours meld. My daughter also made it for her family and they all loved it too! I served it with your Caramelized Onion Grilled Cheese Sandwiches With Miso Butter, which was absolutely wonderful and topped the soup with Ellie's Curried Pumpkin Seeds! DH was dunking the sandwich in the curry. Thank you Nat for another recipe that will see repeats! Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
