BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND APPLE SOUP WITH CIDER CREAM
Steps:
- Place a large, heavy saucepan on the stove over a medium-heat and add the oil. When the oil is shimmering, add the onions and cook until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the squash and cook, stirring often, until starting to soften, about 10 minutes. Add the apples, cayenne, cinnamon and ginger and cook until lightly brown, about 5 minutes. Add the broth (just enough to cover the vegetables) and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are very soft, about 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and, using an immersion blender, purée soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can purée the soup in batches in a food processor or blender. Use a wooden spoon to stir in the cream or milk into soup. Add lemon juice. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. To prepare cider cream: Place the apple juice into small saucepan over a medium-high heat and bring to boil. When the apple juice has reduced by half, remove from the stove and allow to cool down completely. In a bowl, whisk the cream until slightly thickened. Whisk in the apple cider reduction until thoroughly combined. To serve: Ladle the soup into warmed soup bowls and drizzle the cider cream over the soup. Serve immediately. Note: to serve as pictured, leave a few chunks of squash whole for texture, and top with pumpkin seeds.
