Method

  1. In a large non-stick fry pan cook the diced bacon until crisp. Reserve the fat and set aside the cooked crispy bacon.
  2. Add the bacon fat and butter into a large stock pot and heat over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the pumpkin and sauté for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Pour in the stock and simmer covered until the pumpkin is very tender, approximately 30 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. Add the white wine, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Process the soup in batches in a blender until smooth (or use a stick blender in the pot).
  7. Return to the stock pot, add the bacon and simmer for 10 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese if desired.
