Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Butternut Squash

    Peel, seed, and cut the butternut squash into cubes.

  3. 3

    Roast the Squash

    Toss the butternut squash cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and caramelized.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat a bit of olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute.

  2. 5

    Add Broth and Squash

    Once the squash is roasted, add it to the pot along with the vegetable broth and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

  3. 6

    Blend the Soup

    Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a blender in batches.

  4. 7

    Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls and swirl in a tablespoon of crème fraîche. Garnish with chopped chives.
