Best Butternut Squash And Turnip Green Soup Recipes

BUTTERNUT AND TURNIP SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter over medium heat, add onion and carrots and saute until soft.
• Add garlic and saute a few more minutes.
• Add a bit salt at each stage, then a little more if needed at the end. I use a total of 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt for the entire recipe.
• Add squash, turnip and bouillon, then just enough water to barely cover the veggies.
• Cover and bring to a low boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 35 minutes or until squash is tender.
• Select a pan to make the roux (white sauce). I use a large, wide pan, large enough to hold the roux plus the vegetable soup.
• Make the roux by sauteeing flour in butter til golden, then slowly stir in the milk or almond milk. Heat until thickened, stirring frequently, then turn off heat.
• Puree the vegetable soup in blender until smooth, then stir it into the thickened roux.
• Add the spices, salt and pepper to taste.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP SOUP

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine water, stock, squash, turnips, chipotles, peppercorns, and bay leaves.
• Cook for 30-40 minutes on medium heat, until veggies are tender.
• When done, remove leaves and chipotles, and set aside to cool a bit.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, until melted. Add onions and garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes.
• Add parsley and mushrooms, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.
• Combine cooked onion mixture with cooked squash mixture. Allow to cool.
• Using either a food processor or immersion blender, puree the mixture until it achieves a consistent texture. (If using a food processor, you will have to work in portions).
• Season as desired.
• This recipe can be served warm or cold. If served cold, add a dollop of light sour cream or plain yogurt.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND TURNIP SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the butternut squash, turnips, celery, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until the vegetables just begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the chicken stock in a large pot over medium heat until simmering.
• Transfer the vegetables to simmering stock, and add the bay leaf, honey, pepper, nutmeg, coriander, cayenne pepper, and salt. Continue simmering until all the vegetables are softened, about 20 minutes. Remove the bay leaf before serving.

TURNIP GREEN SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir kielbasa and onion in the hot oil until the onion is tender, 5 to 7 minutes; set aside.
• Stir chicken broth, turnip greens, great Northern beans, vegetable soup mix, hot pepper sauce, garlic powder, Creole seasoning, salt, and black pepper together in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Stir kielbasa mixture into the boiling broth mixture, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer for 2 hours.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH, TURNIP, AND GREEN-BEAN QUINOA

Steps:

• In a sieve rinse quinoa under cold running water until water runs clear.
• In a small saucepan bring water to a boil with quinoa and salt and simmer mixture, covered, over moderately low heat until just cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain quinoa in sieve (do not rinse) and spread out on a plate to cool.
• Peel turnip and cut into 1/3-inch cubes. Mince garlic. Slice scallions thin on the diagonal and cut beans into 1/3-inch pieces.
• In a steamer set over 1 inch boiling water combine squash, turnip, and garlic and steam vegetables, covered, 7 minutes, or until almost tender. Add beans, quinoa, and salt and pepper to taste and steam 3 minutes, or until beans are crisp-tender. Transfer mixture to a bowl and toss with scallions.
