Bread & Cup Long Island Cheese Pumpkin Soup

Kevin Shinn, owner and chef at Bread & Cup prepared a wonderful fall soup last week for the market. Many shoppers asked for the recipe. Here, in his own words, is the recipe. The Squash Swirl Soup and Caramel recipes are from Bread & Cup.

In a stock pot add:

 

  • Flesh of 1 medium sized Long Island Cheese pumpkin*, cut into 1" cubes 
  • Two-day old Bread & cup cinnamon rolls 
  • Fill with water to cover 
  • Simmer until pumpkin falls apart (about 45 min) 
  • Puree with immersion blender or food processor 
  • Season with salt to taste

 

 
Yes, it's that simple.  The type of pumpkin makes a difference and that Long Island Cheese is a good one. The cinnamon roll does add a little body and spice.  No cream or dairy.  There are eggs in the cinnamon roll, else it would be vegan.

Squash Swirl Soup

 

  • 2 acorn squash*
  • 2 butternut squash*
  • 1 small onion
  • 4 cloves of garlic
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • Salt to taste

 

Split squash in half, scoop out seeds. Place baking pan and bake for at least an hour at 400 degrees or until tender. Scoop out squash into separate containers.

Dice and sweat onions and garlic, divide evenly into two small stock pots. Place acorn squash into one pot, butternut into the other. Add a quart or so water to each and bring to a simmer. Puree each with an immersion blender or food processor. Smooth with a little fresh cream, season with salt and cinnamon to taste.
