Making Pumpkin Soup - Pictures and words by Jack and Tom

Today in Room 7 we made Pumpkin Soup for the staff. 

The pumpkins were left over from the Food Fair.

Room 7 sold the soup for $4.00. The soup came with 2 pieces of toast. There was some left over and we got to try it. Some of us thought it was delicious, some of us didn't like it.

All of us had jobs to do - either helping make the soup or doing the dishes.

The first thing we did was some people chopped some pumpkin into small bits.  

Second we got some oil and poured it into the pumpkin and we put it into the oven for about 50 minutes

Third Ms D told two people to chop the onions. Well you know what happened - they started to cry!

Fourth we put the onions and the pumpkins into a huge pot and cooked them.

We added nutmeg, salt, pepper, milk, stock and water. Then we put the pumpkin in.

Fifth we blended it into soup.

Sixth we served it to the staff.
