  • Roast the butternut squash before pureeing it: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered until the vegetables are tender, but not mushy.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
  • Garnish the soup with crispy prosciutto: The crispy prosciutto adds a nice salty, crunchy contrast to the smooth, creamy soup.
