Ingredients

6 servings

¼ cup (½ stick) unsalted butter
1 large onion, (finely chopped)
4 cups vegetable broth
4 cups canned unsweetened pumpkin puree
1 whole bay leaf
1 cup half and half cream
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
¾ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¾ teaspoon ground ginger
1½ cups shredded Gruyere or Swiss cheese, (divided)
salt and ground white pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
croutons ((see Notes below))

Steps

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until it begins to turn golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the broth, pumpkin puree, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaf.
In small batches, purée the soup in a food processor or a blender. Return the purée to the pan and stir in the half and half, orange zest, orange and lemon juices, nutmeg and ginger.
Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheese. Heat over low heat until the cheese melts and blends in. Season to taste with salt and white pepper. Pour into individual bowls and garnish with remaining cheese, chives and croutons (if desired).
