Pumpkin Soup with Seafood

Preparations:

1. Peel the pumpkin and cut into large cubes. Wash the vegetables well, prepare them, put the cooking waste aside. Peel the onions and garlic, do not peel 1 clove of garlic, just mash them a little. Add hides to the waste. Wash the herbs and parsley, shake dry, wipe off. Pluck the parsley leaves, put the stalks with the waste, cut the leaves into fine strips. 5 Cut the onion into strips and the garlic into slices. Thaw seafood in a sieve.

Vegetable broth:

1. In the future I will always work with the same pattern. If I need vegetable broth, I will, if I can, make fresh broth from the vegetable waste. And no longer in stock and then stored in the TK. And that’s quite simply because I don’t have any more space in the TK and I still have a bad overview of the contents of the TK. All it takes is better time management. So all waste, some herbs, 1 half an onion and a squashed clove of garlic, 1 bay leaf, 1-2 cloves in 1.2 liters of cold water, a little squeezed peppercorns, lovage is not in it, I have none in the garden. etc …. Everyone puts in what they like, also other vegetables that are available, fennel, cabbage, savory cabbage, kohlrabi, etc ….. Approx. Then simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside 2 dl.

Prepare soup:

1. Heat oil in a saucepan, add onion and garlic, sauté until translucent. Stir vegetables, herbs and spices for a moment while steaming. Deglaze with white wine, add the vegetable stock, bring to the boil, simmer for 30-40 minutes. Puree in the blender or with a blender stick. Season with salt, lemon pepper and nutmeg.

In the meantime :

1. Rinse the seafood lightly with cold water, drain, bring the fish stock to the boil, pull away from the plate, add seafood. Let it draw covered. Preheat the oven to grill setting. Cut 8 slices of bread, line up on a rack, put in the oven for 1-2 minutes, toast a little. Remove with a clove of garlic, spread with tapenade and put back in the oven for a short time, remove.
