Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large butternut squash, about 3 pounds, halved, seeds removed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 lb sweet Italian sausage, removed from casings
1 large onion, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage, plus
12 whole sage leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh marjoram
6 cups low-fat chicken broth or 6 cups broth
1 teaspoon cider vinegar or 1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/2 cup heavy cream (or more)
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Lightly coat the squash halves with 1 teaspoon of the vegetable oil. Season the inside with salt and pepper and place cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until very tender, about 45 minutes. When the squash is cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and reserve. Discard the peel.
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the remaining vegetable oil and, when hot but not smoking, add the sausage. Cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until the onions wilted and starting to caramelize, about 6 minutes. Add the garlic, sage and marjoram, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the cooked squash and chicken stock, stir well to combine, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • With a hand-held immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor or blender, puree the soup. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a clean saucepan. Add the cider vinegar and stir to combine. Add the cream and adjust seasoning, to taste.
  • In a small saute pan, cook the butter over medium-high heat until it begins to turn brown around the edges. Add the whole sage leaves and cook until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the leaves to paper towels to drain.
  • Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with the crispy sage leaves.

Tips:

  • Choose the right butternut squash: Look for a squash that is firm and has a deep orange color. Avoid squash that has soft spots or blemishes.
  • Roast the butternut squash before pureeing it: Roasting the squash brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast the squash in a 400°F oven for 45-60 minutes, or until it is tender.
  • Use a good-quality sausage: The sausage is a key ingredient in this soup, so it's important to use a good-quality sausage. Look for a sausage that is made with fresh, high-quality meat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when browning the sausage: If you overcrowd the pan, the sausage will steam instead of brown. Cook the sausage in batches if necessary.
  • Add the vegetables to the soup in stages: Adding the vegetables to the soup in stages helps to prevent them from becoming overcooked. Add the vegetables that take longer to cook, such as the carrots and celery, first. Then, add the vegetables that cook more quickly, such as the kale and spinach.
  • Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is finished cooking, season it to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
  • Serve the soup immediately: Butternut squash soup is best served immediately after it is made. You can also store the soup in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Butternut squash soup is a delicious and nutritious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a butternut squash soup that is sure to impress your family and friends.
