Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Squash

    Peel, seed, and chop the butternut squash into small cubes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

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

  3. 3

    Cook the Squash

    Add the butternut squash cubes to the pot. Season with salt, black pepper, and cinnamon. Stir well and cook for about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Simmer

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or until the squash is tender.

  5. 5

    Blend the Soup

    Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls, top with a dollop of crème fraîche, sprinkle with candied walnuts and chives.
