Cider Butternut Squash Soup
1 cup Onions, diced 1/2 cup Celery, diced 1/2 cup Carrot diced 2 tsp Cinnamon 1 tsp Cardamom, ground 1 dash Nutmeg 4 cup White Wine 1 large Butternut Squash, peeled and diced 2 qts Apple Cider 1 qt Heavy Cream
1. In large pot place onions, carrots, celery, spices, and white wine. 2. Bring to simmer and reduce wine by ¾. 3. Add squash and cider. 4. Simmer until squash is very soft. 5. Add cream and puree until smooth. 6. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
NOTES:
Step 5 is best done with an immersion blender. You may CAREFULLY puree small amounts at a time in a regular blender. If so… only fill blender one third full and puree only that much at a time. It takes longer but will be smoother and prevent overfilling the blender.
Try substituting acorn squash
Try adding diced, cooked bacon to step one
