Pumpkin Ghost Cream Soup
This Halloween, serve a golden pumpkin soup topped with floating "little ghosts" — all made easy with the Geedel Vegetable Chopper, which dices pumpkin and onion in just 20 minutes, tear-free. Silky smooth and warmly comforting, this festive starter brings the whole family together around the table.
Ingredients
300g pumpkin (peeled and deseeded)
½ onion
2 garlic cloves
100ml heavy cream
400ml chicken broth
15g butter
¼ tsp salt
A pinch of black pepper
1 tsp chopped parsley (for garnish)
A pinch of bamboo charcoal powder (for ghost eyes)
Instructions
1. Dice the Pumpkin: Even & Quick Cooking
Cut the pumpkin into 3cm-wide strips and place in the Geedel Vegetable Chopper using vegetable chopper mode (wide blade). Press once to get uniform 2cm cubes—evenly sized for soft, tender cooking in just 15 minutes (twice as fast as hand-cutting). Transfer the pumpkin and peeled garlic cloves to a clay pot.
2. Sauté Onion & Simmer: Rich Flavor Base
Peel and slice the onion, then mince finely with one press using the Geedel fine blade (no tears, milder flavor). Melt butter in a pan and sauté the minced onion until fragrant. Add to the clay pot with chicken broth, bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.
3. Purée & Create Ghosts: Silky Texture & Fun Look
Let the soup cool for 5 minutes. Using the Geedel food chopper mode, purée the soup directly in the pot—no extra bowls to wash. Stir in 50ml heavy cream, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 3 minutes until hot.
Fill a piping bag with the remaining cream and pipe three small "cloud" shapes onto the soup. Use a toothpick dipped in bamboo charcoal powder to add eyes, creating "ghosts." Garnish with parsley—golden soup, white ghosts, and green herbs make a warm, inviting dish.
Conclusion
Say goodbye to uneven chunks and lumpy textures. The Geedel Vegetable Chopper delivers perfectly diced pumpkin and tear-free onion mincing. Blend directly in the pot for faster prep and easy cleanup—just rinse the blade.
The ultimate Halloween warmer: ready in 20 minutes, deliciously smooth, and full of festive charm. Gather your family for a cozy, heartwarming Halloween night.
