Molly Katzen (formerly one of the Moosewood Restaurant people) suggests an amazing Pumpkin Tureen soup -- you prepare the broth/soup beforehand, place inside a whole, cleaned pumpkin, bake it, then serve the whole thing at the table! Baking it with the broth softens the pumpkin's insides, which you can scoop out to serve in bowls of soup! Yummy, yummy. I've made it a couple times.The only other details I recall are that one is supposed to clean out the pumpkin first (duh!), oil the outsides, make sure it's in a good pan in case it springs a leak during baking, don't use a creamed soup -- broth is recommended, and it takes a good couple hours or more to bake. Pretty sure you can find it in the Enchanted Broccoli Forest Cookbook. Enjoy!
