  1. This was a really nice soup for a rainy day. It needed extra broth, and I added some sage ad a pinch of nutmeg and ginger, and it was lovely. I can't have dairy, so I stirred a lump of soy cream cheese into the finished soup and it was a very nice touch. It needed quite a bit of salt. We had this with homemade artisan bread and it was perfect.

Tweaks

  1. I took the butternut squash cut it length ways into 3 even slices removing the seeds. Place on a tray with a 1/4 inch of water, spray top of squash with light oil. Place in oven at 425 F for 1hr to roast. Dice the onion and garlic, and sauté in large soup pan until soft. Peel carrots then shred them. Add to the garlic and sauté until soft. Stir in the broth, add the seasoning. Take the cooked butternut squash scoop out the flesh and add to the soup pan, bring to boil and simmer for 30 mins. Carefully place the ingredients into a food processor or liquidizier until smooth. Return soup back to pan bring back to boil, add milk and simmer. Do not boil. Serve with crusty bread.
