As the temperature drops and the squash harvest comes in, this squash - or pumpkin - and split fava bean soup is a comforting and seasonal delight. The simple but excellent recipe was developed by Carol Kearns, who not only creates the lovely illustrations for our packaging but also publishes recipes on her blog The Art of Baking. |
This soup is wonderfully comforting at this time of year: it has a lovely velvet texture, a brilliant colour and roasting the squash brings out a real intensity of flavour. Indeed, don’t be tempted to add any herbs or spices to the recipe because, simple as this soup is, it’s just packed with flavour.
As the soup only requires half a standard-sized squash I either double the quantities in the recipe so I have some for the freezer or, alternatively, I use the other half in a warming spicy bean stew recipe - made with Hodmedod’s pulses of course. Look out for that recipe shortly…

Hi, I made your soup recipe, but added about 2 tsp. cinnamon, 2 tsp. turmeric powder, 5 small garlic cloves (sautéed with the onions) and about a cup of bone broth (instead of the vegetable stock). Really yummy on a cold, rainy day! Thank you for the inspiration!

This dish combines subtly fruity, savoury, sweet and acidic flavours, all in one. Inspired by the classic Syrian red pepper dip muhammara, it's best paired with crunchy fresh veg and flatbreads.

This simple vegan dish pairs our creamy white coco beans with a punchy wild garlic pesto. If you haven’t tried brothy beans, you’re missing out on one of the simplest, most comforting and nutritious dishes out there: creamy beans served in their own rich, delicious stock, usually with fresh herbs to add brightness.
