Coconut Pumpkin Soup

Coconut Pumpkin Soup

After our day out in the snow, there’s nothing I want more than a hot meal. First of all, it’s bitterly cold out there. Our hands are numb, our noses are red, and we’re craving warmth. So, what warms you up best from the inside? A steaming bowl of soup, of course! Today, I’m cooking one of my all-time favorite recipes: a creamy Coconut Pumpkin Soup with Hokkaido Pumpkin, black mustard seeds and a hint of orange. Not only is it silky and lightly fruity, but it’s also wonderfully spiced. The coconut milk adds an exotic touch, while the spices turn every spoonful into a feast for the senses. The best part? This Ayurvedic pumpkin soup is quick and easy to make. As it simmers on the stove, a gorgeous aroma drifts through the kitchen. I could climb right in! On chilly autumn and winter evenings, I can’t think of anything cozier than curling up on the sofa with a bowl of hot soup. Add a piece of crusty flatbread, and my happiness is complete.

Piccalilli – English Mustard Pickle

Piccalilli – English Mustard Pickle

Let’s start pickling today! I came across this incredibly delicious Piccalilli – English Mustard Pickle as I visited London. So I want to share the recipe with you, as the pickling is simple to prepare and super healthy. I made the British version, which originates from India. You need fresh vegetables like cauliflower, diced zucchini, red bell pepper, carrot, and onion to prepare it. Their delicious taste comes from a broth of apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, mustard seeds, mustard powder, turmeric, coriander, sugar, salt, and cornstarch. Piccalilli has a mild spiciness, a nice crunchy texture, an intense yellow color, and is bound creamy. Simply delicious!
