26. Pumpkin Soup Maigre.
Cut your pumpkin into-slices, and put it
in boiling water
for five minutes, with some salt ; take
it out ; pound it to a
pulp, and put it into a saucepan with some melted
butter,
with which warm it up. Put into a tureen some
crusts of
bread spread with butter and sugar ; add the
pumpkin pulp ;
pour in some boiling milk, mix the whole, and
serve after you
have let it simmer for ten minutes longer. Or
you may make
your pumpkin soup a savoury one with veal stock.
This interesting vegetable is shamefully
neglected by
English cooks. Boiled or fried pumpkin is eaten
with roast
meat in Australia; and pumpkin-pie is one of
the nicest of
American sweet dishes.
