Sweet Curried Pumpkin Bisque

Preparation

1. Step 1

   In a medium saucepan, whisk together the pumpkin and broth until smooth. Whisk in the sugar, curry powder, cinnamon, cumin, and cayenne. Bring to a boil over high heat, about 3 minutes, whisking occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 3 minutes.

   Step 2

   Whisk in the half-and-half and salt. Increase the heat to medium low and cook, covered, for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Serve topped with the cilantro.

2. Cook’s Tip

   Step 3

   The cayenne helps heighten the flavors in this soup. The level of heat intensifies as it sits, though, so if you aren’t serving the soup right away, stir in the cayenne at serving time.
