Caramelized Butternut Squash Soup
12 servings
Ingredients
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 pounds butternut squash, peeled and cubed
1 large onion, sliced
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly-cracked white pepper
4 cups chicken broth, or more as needed
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 pinch ground nutmeg, or more to taste
salt to taste
ground white pepper to taste
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot over high heat. Cook and stir squash in hot oil until completely browned, about 10 minutes. Stir onion, butter, sea salt, and cracked white pepper into the squash; cook and stir together until the onions are completely tender and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes.
Pour chicken broth and honey over the mixture; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer until the squash is tender, about 5 minutes.
Pour the mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid in place; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.
Stir cream, nutmeg, salt, and ground white pepper into the soup to serve.
