Homemade stock is more nutritious and flavorful.

Dice half an onion and press two cloves of garlic, leaving the root of the onion intact to hold everything in place.

Melt one tablespoon of butter or olive oil in a pot or saucepan.

Add the garlic and onions to the pot and cook for several minutes until the onions are translucent or browned.

Add two cups of pumpkin puree and stir for a few minutes to blend it with the aromas from the onions and garlic.

Add a quarter teaspoon of nutmeg, a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon, and a quarter teaspoon of salt, along with freshly ground pepper to taste. Stir to blend the spices with the pumpkin puree.

Add two cups of chicken or vegetable stock and stir until all ingredients are blended and have the consistency of soup.

Bring the soup to a slight boil and simmer for 10 minutes, loosely resting the lid on the pot to avoid splattering.

After 10 minutes, add a fourth cup of heavy cream or coconut milk and stir until well blended.

Taste the soup and add one tablespoon of maple syrup if desired, or leave it as is if the pumpkin is sweet enough.

Ladle the soup into a bowl and add toppings such as honey roasted pistachios and additional coconut milk for presentation, along with freshly ground pepper.
