Creamy Pumpkin Soup with Albacore and Egg for Christmas
Begin the festive season with a creamy pumpkin soup with albacore in extra virgin olive oil. A tasty recipe that will help you enjoy your healthy food and impress your guests with a creamy pumpkin soup for Christmas. A delightful dish that combines the best of the vegetable garden, the power of the EVOO, and the texture of the albacore!
Elaboration
We’ll begin this recipe by placing a pot on the stove, containing half a glass of water and 4 glasses of milk. Heat the contents of the pot at medium heat and add a pinch of salt.
While the mix heats a little, you should peel and chop the pumpkin into dice, the carrots into slices and the zucchini into pieces.
Once the liquid mixture has heated up, add the vegetables to the pot.
Continue peeling and chopping the potato into dice, and add it to the pot.
Since all the vegetables are in the pot, the moment has arrived to let it all cook at slow heat for approximately 30 minutes. Since the mix contains four parts of milk, it is possible that the liquid adheres to the pot. To avoid this, stir the stew regularly to keep it from sticking to the bottom.
Once that time has passed, check how hard the vegetables are.
Remove them from the stove when they’ve become soft and are cooked to perfection.
Using a kitchen blender and that very pot, blend the vegetable stew once they are soft enough.
To achieve a Christmassy creamy pumpkin soup with a tasty and dense texture, you should add the grated cheese as you are blending. Among the many cheese varieties, we recommend you use one typically used for pasta. Thanks to this trick, the cheese will melt without turning lumpy.
Add salt, sample it, and adjust to your taste. When it’s ready, cover the creamy soup and set aside for later.
Boil the four eggs in a saucepan. They will be ready in 12 minutes.
Meanwhile, dice the sliced bread and fry it in very hot oil. Set the pieces, or picatostes, aside for the serving process later on. This crunchy fried bread will be the perfect addition to the creamy pumpkin soup for Christmas.
Next, open the four Palacio de Oriente cans of albacore in extra virgin olive oil. Choose the larger pieces of albacore and separate the can’s EVOO into another container.
Serving
- Choose a bowl or a soup dish to serve the creamy pumpkin soup.
- Cut an egg in half and place it over the creamy soup in such a way that the yolk can be seen.
- Choose the largest albacore pieces and place them next to the egg.
- Decorate with four or five pieces of fried bread. Place the rest in a separate dish, so that the guest can add more, depending on their preference.
- Round the recipe off with a dash of extra virgin olive oil from the albacore cans that you set aside earlier. This premium-quality oil will add the perfect finishing touch to a Christmassy, healthy, creamy and tasty dish.
- Finish serving this creamy pumpkin soup with a small parsley branch. Bon appétit!
