Brush the pumpkin thoroughly under running water. Cut the pumpkin, peeled potatoes, and carrots into equal-sized pieces. Then finely chop the onions and garlic and sauté briefly in a large pot. Add the pumpkin, carrot, and potato pieces to the pot, sauté briefly, and deglaze with a splash of white wine. Pour hot water into the pot until the vegetables are covered. Simmer over low heat for about 25 minutes. Tip: If you like, you can also use vegetable stock. Meanwhile, toast the pumpkin seeds in a pan without oil. Purée the vegetables thoroughly with a hand blender, then season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Serve the soup in a bowl with a small spoonful of crème fraîche, pumpkin seed oil, and the pumpkin seeds.
