Over 60% of Halloween pumpkins get tossed in the trash, and the rate is higher in the UK for binning your Jack o lantern. Instead, try this tasty French soup as our French friend, Laurent, describes simply as:
Remove the seeds and filaments, dig the sides so you have enough space for the layers : 1 dried bread, or crumbs, 2 crème fraiche or sour cream, 3 mushrooms with a real flavour and again 1/2/3 until the top. 3 hours minimum at 180°Celsius, and you scoop the inside to mix the flesh and preparation. Then an electric hand mixer could help to get a nice creamy texture, or you stick to rustic crumbly aspect. If you do not like the result, if too thick, add chicken stock. Salt pepper. Parsley. Ready.
