Yellow Squash Soup Recipe

Soup Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Vegetables

   Start by washing and peeling the yellow squash, onion, and carrot. Cut the squash and carrot into small cubes and chop the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

2. 2

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

3. 3

   Cook the Vegetables

   Add the cubed yellow squash and carrot to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onions and garlic. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the squash is slightly softened.

4. 4

   Add Broth and Seasoning

   Pour in the vegetable broth and add salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

5. 5

   Blend the Soup

   Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender. Be careful with hot liquids!

   Add Cream

   Stir in the heavy cream and mix well. Heat the soup over low heat until warmed through. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
