Steps:
- PREHEAT oven to 350 degrees. Put the squash, cut-side down, on a baking sheet and bake until tender, about 40 minutes. Let cool slightly. Scoop out and discard the seeds. Scrape the squash from the skin.
- 2. In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the leeds and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are soft and browned, about 40 minutes.
- 3. Meanwhile, fry the bacon until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
- 4. Stir the squash, stock and salt into the leek mixture. Simmer over moderate heat for 20 minutes. In a blender or food processor, puree the soup until smooth. Pour the soup back into the pot and ad the pepper. Reheat and serve topped with the sour cream, chives and bacon.
