1 - This makes a delicious and sweet soup (really good with whole grain crackers and cambonzola cheese). I just have to figure out the right ratio for the stock to get a pleasing consistency.
2 - Everthing going swimmingly! And paired with cambonzola is still good.
3 - Ok, That's it. Sweet and spicy and creamy. Very nice. One more time and it's ready to publish! To be honest, I grew acorn squash specifically to make this soup.
1 Tbsp butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 lbs acorn squash
1⁄2 teaspoon dry dill weed
1⁄4 teaspoon curry powder (can use more to taste)
1 pinch cayenne pepper
3 cups chicken stock (+ potentially more at the end, see point 6)
1⁄2 cup heavy cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
- To bake the squash, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds and cover the cut sides with oil. Turn over onto baking sheets and bake at 425F for 20-30 minutes. Allow to cool before scooping out the flesh.
- Once the squash flesh has been scooped out, sauté the onion in the melted butter.
- Add the squash and the spices, mixing well.
- Add the stock, stir to combine, and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Blend until perfectly smooth.
- Pour in the cream and mix, and bring the soup back up to a gentle simmer before serving. (add stock to get the consistency of heavy cream)
- Add salt and pepper, adjust the seasoning, and serve.
