Course: Dinner, Lunch, Soup
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 3-pound butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubed
  • 3 garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
  • ½ tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 3 to 4 cups vegetable broth
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Chopped parsley
  • Toasted pepitas
  • Crusty bread

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and several grinds of fresh pepper and sauté until soft, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the squash and cook until it begins to soften, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, sage, rosemary, and ginger. Stir and cook 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant, then add 3 cups of the broth. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the squash is tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly and pour the soup into a blender, working in batches if necessary, and blend until smooth. (If your soup is too thick, add up to 1 cup more broth and blend).
  • Season to taste and serve with parsley, pepitas, and crusty bread.
