Ingredients: | |
2 tablespoons | extra-virgin olive oil |
1 | carrot, diced |
1 | celery stalk, diced |
1 | onion, diced |
4 cups | cubed butternut squash, fresh or frozen |
1/2 teaspoon | chopped fresh thyme |
4 cups | low-sodium chicken broth |
1/2 teaspoon | fine sea salt |
1/2 teaspoon | ground black pepper |
Method: Heat oil in a large soup pot. Add carrot, celery and onion. Cook until vegetables have begun to soften and onion turns translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in butternut squash, thyme, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until squash is fork-tender, about 30 minutes. Use an immersion blender to purée soup. Alternatively, let the soup cool slightly and carefully purée in batches in an upright blender. Three Twists | |
