Drum roll please...
I have a real recipe for you today and it is FABULOUS!! I don't have a picture at the moment but I will add one shortly. I made this soup over the weekend and had a few requests for the recipe so here it is. I think it makes sense...
Zeke’s Squash Soup
8 Cups chopped onion
4 Cups acorn squash peeled, seeded and chopped
4 Cups butternut squash peeled seeded, and chopped
Cover with one container (carton) Swanson’s 33% reduced sodium chicken broth
Cook until veggies are tender
1 little box fresh sage, leaves only. add when squash is about halfway done
Puree mixture in blender when squash is soft
Make roux:
¼ cup flour and ¼ cup butter cooked until nutty and light brown in color not black. Thicken puree with the roux. Add a 1/2 pint heavy cream, salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with a few teaspoons cream ,not cream fraiche, and grated 3yr. gouda or some smoked cheese and chopped parsley or a few pieces sage chopped. I strongly recommend the 3yr gouda I think it makes the soup just perfect!
This soup is so easy and so delicious. I totally recommend it even if you are not a squash person!
Sounds amazing! I need a lighter version lol :)
ReplyDeletehonestly, I don't even think I needed to add the heavy cream. After I pureed it it was perfectly fine. It would actually be quite healthy without the cream.
