Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium onions, peeled and sliced (3 cups)
3 pounds butternut squash, peeled and cut into 2-inch cubes (8 cups)
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 sprigs of fresh thyme
3 cups chicken broth, vegetable broth, or a commercial broth or bouillon cubes
Croutons

Steps:

  • In a 6-quart heavy-bottomed soup pot, heat the oil over medium heat and stir in the onions. Cover, reduce the heat, and braise for 15 minutes, checking that the onions don't burn.
  • Add the squash to the onions. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, cumin, and thyme; cover the pot. Braise for another 15 minutes, checking once in a while that the vegetables do not burn.
  • Add the broth, bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat, and simmer for 30 minutes or until the squash is tender.
  • Purée the soup in a blender or food processor in batches or use an immersion blender. Reheat the soup; taste for salt, and add more cumin to taste. Serve boiling hot with croutons.

I'm not a huge fan of butternut squash, but this soup changed my mind. The cumin and other spices really elevate the flavor of the squash. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup is so easy to make and it's always a hit with my friends and family. I love that I can use frozen butternut squash, which makes it a great option for busy weeknights.

This butternut soup with cumin is a delicious and comforting dish. The cumin adds a warm and earthy flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of the butternut squash. I also love the addition of the crispy chickpeas, which add a nice contrast in
