Why Pumpkin Soup’s vegetable slot may not be enough
Pumpkin Soup has both a specific Pumpkin requirement and a separate slot that accepts any Vegetable. For the cited duty, the guide cautions that a recipe allowing any vegetable does not qualify unless Pumpkin is specifically required by that recipe. Use Pumpkin Soup as named, rather than relying on a Pumpkin placed only in a flexible vegetable slot in some other recipe. This qualification is for the cited duty; it does not establish a universal rule for other tasks.

Pumpkin Puffs details
Pumpkin Puffs are a three-star appetizer prepared at a cooking station from Pumpkin, Egg, and Cheese. The Dreamlight Valley Wiki recipe entry reports a sale value of 1,489 or more and energy restoration of 1,466 or more. Those figures may vary with game conditions or updates, so they are not guaranteed values for every player.
