Description

This is my favorite soup in autumn and winter! The sweet of the squash with the savory heat of the spices make this soup your “comfort food best friend.”

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Butternut Squash (Medium To Large In Size)
  • ½ sticks Butter, Melted
  • 2 teaspoons Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 Tablespoons Chili Powder
  • 2 Tablespoons Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 Tablespoons Ground Nutmeg
  • 2 Tablespoons Ground Ginger
  • 2 Tablespoons Ground Cloves
  • ¼ cups Balsamic Vinegar
  • ¼ cups Syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Sage, Chopped
  • Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 whole Medium Onion, Chopped
  • 2 stalks Celery, Chopped
  • 2 whole Carrots, Chopped
  • 1 dash White Wine
  • 4 cups Chicken Stock
  • 1 whole Orange, Zested
  • ½ cups Milk Or Cream

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400F.

2. Peel squash and cut into 1-inch cubes.

3. In a Ziploc bag, combine squash, melted butter, red pepper flakes, chili powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, balsamic vinegar, syrup, and sage. Shake to coat squash.

4. Pour contents of the bag onto a foil-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 minutes until caramelized, and squash is fork tender.

5. When squash has 15 minutes left to roast, heat a splash of oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Saute garlic, onion, celery and carrot with a dash of cinnamon, salt and pepper, until soft. Add a splash of wine and the chicken stock. Stir to combine and simmer.

6. Remove squash from the oven and puree in a food processor until smooth. Add puree to the soup pot. Blend the squash and vegetables together with a hand (immersion) blender until smooth. Add the orange zest and milk. Stir to blend. Serve warm.

I serve this with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a few croutons for richness and crunch. This soup can be refrigerated or frozen and reheated very easily.

it was hard for me to love the mix of flavors—in my flavor world cinnamon & nutmeg don’t mix with red pepper flakes & chili powder!! The house smelled wonderful though!
