Wine Tip
Silvaner, dry, 2012
This aromatic white wine is delightful with its fine, fruity aromas and distinct acidity. This Rhine-Hessian wine specialty gently plays with the mild bite of the ginger and is the ideal pairing for this delicious soup.
Step 1
Place pumpkin seeds, water, and sugar in a small saucepan. While stirring constantly, heat until the water has fully evaporated and the sugar has caramelized and is amber-colored. The pumpkin seeds should rise slightly in the middle.

Cut onion into cubes and finely chop ginger and chili. If you wish to make the dish milder, remove the seeds from the chili. Halve the pumpkin, remove the seeds with a spoon, and cut the flesh of the pumpkin into cubes.
