Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Dice onion into small pieces. Heat 1 tbsp butter in a pot over medium until foaming, ~90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add onion and cook, stirring, until soft and golden, about 4 minutes. You'll smell it turn sweet.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in stock and pumpkin puree. Stir well, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 8 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Blend soup until completely smooth using an immersion blender. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.

  5. Step 5

    Heat remaining 2 tbsp butter in a small skillet over medium-high. Add sage leaves and cook until crispy, ~2 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Ladle soup into bowls. Drizzle sage oil over the top and scatter crispy sage leaves as garnish. Serve hot.
