Chumpkin Soup

Rita~'s Note:

I found this on line because OzCoMartha requested a Aussie pumpkin soup. "Chumpkin SoupChef: Steve from the Lake No, it's not a typo...It's Chicken and Pumpkin soup!" I'm posting my directions as well his! Ingredients are exact except I put 1-2 tablespoons butter next to a Knob of butter!Haven't tried it yet!I do have a garden of squash and soon as it's ready I will be making it! I myself prefer my Butternut Shrimp Soup Topped With Sherry

This soup wasn't what I expected. There was very little pumpkin taste, much more Worcestershire taste. A little more zip than my family likes.
