The recipe for this soup I learned on one of the tours while traveling in Austria. We were in Styria, the weather was cloudy, it was raining. They took us to a small family restaurant, where lunch was served pumpkin cream soup with croutons. It was flavorful, hot and satisfying - what you need for frozen tourists!) With the help of a guide we begged the recipe from the hostess, it was very simple. One of the ingredients of the soup is pumpkin seed oil - healthy and tasty. For a bottle of Austrian pumpkin seed oil in the kitchen as well as integral, like an Italian - a bottle of olive oil. :) So, the soup!
