Creamy Pumpkin Soup
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
2 cups pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)
1 1/2 cups cream
salt & pepper to taste
In a large saucepan, saute the onion and celery until soft, about 3-5 minutes. Add the pumpkin puree and half of the cream to the saucepan, stirring just until steaming hot (but not boiling). Transfer mixture to a blender, and puree well to remove all vegetable chunks. Salt & pepper to taste. Serve immediately in bowls, with a splash of remaining cream on top
