Charles Gilles says, "Fall is the season for game and squash. Pumpkin can be prepared in both sweet and savory recipes. Use the hollowed out shell as a serving tureen."

2. Sweat the chopped onion in butter; add the diced pumpkin and cook a few minutes longer; add the milk, salt and pepper; sprinkle with turmeric. 
3. Cook everything gently for about 20 minutes. 
4. Liquefy in a blender, add the cream and reheat.
5. Serve hot with croutons. Decorate with a drizzle of cream.
