Even though the weather has been very warm, I had a craving for soup but I wasn't sure what type of soup I wanted. I was hoping a stroll through my local market would inspire me, and it did!
I found some chicken on sale at a great price, plus some other ingredients that kinda led me to making a Jamaican style Pumpkin Soup.
Besides the chicken, I also got pumpkin, chayote squash, carrots, and corn. I would have picked up some salted pigtails but this market didn't have it.
While it was cooking on the stove, I was adding some herbs and spices and then disaster! The lid from the black pepper fell off as I was shaking it into the pot. Holy crap! Luckily, I wasn't stirring it at the time and I managed to scoop out most of it but it was still very peppery. You can see in the photos.
Despite the excessive pepper, it had good flavour. I'll be more careful next time...
