Hannah Storm`s "Mystery" Soup
1 Onion,large,chopped 1 lb Mushrooms,sliced 1 Butter stick 1/3 c Flour 2 qt Chicken broth 2 c Canned pumpkin* 2 c Light cream 3 T Honey 2 t Nutmeg Before making her name as CNN`s sole female sportscaster, Hannah Storm was famous for her misadventures in the kitchen. "When I was younger, my brothers used to make fun of me," says Storm. "Once, I was following this wonderful chocolate-coffee bundt cake recipe, and I used a cup of freeze-dried coffee grounds. The joke circulated around the family for years, `I ate a piece of Hannah`s cake and was up for two days straight`." Storm has since honed her culinary skills. One dish she`s mastered is her mother`s famous pumpkin soup. "This soup was always a mystery soup for anyone outside of the family," says Storm. "My mother never liked to tell people what was in it because they probably wouldn`t try it." * - not pie filling In a large soup pot, saute onion and mushrooms in butter for 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in flour. Add chicken broth and pumpkin. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in cream, honey, nutmeg and serve.
