Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I would have given this soup a 5 but I needed to add a few ingredients for extra flavor. i added a sprinkle of Red Pepper Flakes and a half cup of chicken broth. The chicken broth loosened it up a bit. It was a little to thick. I will keep this recipe though because the cumin flavor was wonderful.
