DKM Nosh - Savory Butternut Squash Soup | If you want a sweet soup - click here

  • One Butternut Squash roasted (2 cups of flesh)
  • 4 cups of veggie stock
  • 2oz. Whiskey, brandy or sherry (optional)
  • Thyme and ginger or Herbs of your choice (sage is very good!)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
  • Wee bit of olive oil

Roast the squash in a 450 oven.  Use your wee bit of oil and rub the flesh of the squash;salt and pepper. It will take from 20-40 minutes depending on the size of the squash.

Roasting Butternut

Once the squash is cool to the touch, scoop out the flesh and dump in a pot with stock, thyme and ginger (I used shaved fresh ginger - it adds a nice bite to the soup). Simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Blend with a stick blender until smooth, then add whiskey and taste for salt and pepper - simmer 10 more min. Serve with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream.
