Sweet Potato and Butternut Squash Soup with Ginger image

This silky fall/winter puree tastes rich, though there is no cream or butter in it.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 pound butternut squash, peeled and diced
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium-size Yukon gold or russet potato, peeled and diced
6 cups water, chicken stock, or vegetable stock
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and stir together until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the squash, sweet potatoes, regular potato, and water or stock, and bring to a simmer. Add salt to taste, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes, or until all of the ingredients are thoroughly tender.
  • Using an immersion blender, puree the soup (or you can put it through the fine blade of a food mill or use a regular blender, working in batches and placing a kitchen towel over the top to avoid splashing). Return to the pot and stir with a whisk to even out the texture. Heat through, adjust salt and add pepper to taste.

MY SPICED BUTTERNUT SQUASH, SWEET POTATO, CARROT AND ORANGE SOUP



My Spiced Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato, Carrot and Orange Soup image

This was inspired by my other butternut squash soup recipe (#402703). The orange flavoring is optional. I use pre-cut, cubed squash when I can find it or frozen squash. You can also use a small fresh butternut squash. (The prep time assumes you are using pre-cut or frozen squash.) I use almond milk in this recipe (I like Almond Breeze) instead of cream or half and half. You can save a little time by roughly chopping the onion and garlic, because the soup will be pureed later. I do chop the ginger rather finely because it is so fibrous, and I don't want lumps in the soup that didn't get pureed.

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

24 ounces peeled and cubed butternut squash (weighed after peeling)
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut in 1/2 inch dice (I used one that weighed almost a pound before peeling)
3 small carrots, sliced
1 -2 tablespoon oil
1/2 large onion, chopped
2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh gingerroot
4 cups chicken broth (I use organic low-sodium)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (or more to taste)
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (or more to taste)
almond milk (I use Almond Breeze unsweetened original or unsweetened vanilla)
fresh ground pepper
salt
fresh orange juice (optional)

Steps:

  • If you are using a fresh butternut squash, cut it in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Peel it and cut it into 1-inch chunks.
  • Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until it softens, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger root and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • While the onions are cooking, peel and dice the sweet potato and carrots.
  • Add the cut vegetables and broth; bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook at a gentle boil until the squash is fork-tender, about 20 minutes (but this depends on the size of your squash cubes).
  • Puree the soup in several stages in a blender. For safety's sake, since the soup is hot, do not fill the jar more than about 1/4 full each time, and blend on a low speed, covering the lid with an oven mitt. The soup should be completely smooth and a little thicker than heavy cream.
  • Rinse your soup pot to remove any small chunks of food and strain it if you like (I do not strain).
  • Heat the soup through again and season to taste with cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and salt.
  • Add some almond milk, a little at a time, to give soup a creamier consistency. (Instead of almond milk or Almond Breeze, you could probably use soy or rice milk or half and half).
  • Just before serving, add about 2-3 teaspoons fresh orange juice (or to taste) to each bowl, if desired; stir to blend into soup.
  • This soup tastes fine when it has been reheated. The soup will thicken as it chills, so you may want to add extra spice right at the start, if you know you will be re-heating some later. You will need extra Almond Breeze to thin it out after it has been refrigerated. I have kept it in the fridge for as long as 4 days and it was fine.
  • You can sub pumpkin pie spice for the ground spices listed.
  • Because the veggies make the broth very flavorful, you can also use half chicken broth and half water (2 cups of each) with good results.

500g sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 butternut squash, peeled, deseeded and diced
1 tbsp clear honey

2 onions, roughly chopped

1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp grated nutmeg
100ml double cream
1 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves, crushed

zest 1 lemon

  • To make the lemon & garlic toasts, gently warm the olive oil and garlic in a pan over a low heat for a few mins; the garlic should be softened but not browned. Remove from the heat and mix in the butter and lemon zest until smooth. Leave to cool, then stir in the chives and thyme.
  • Toast the ciabatta slices, and top each with a spoonful of garlic butter. Serve with the soup, drizzled with the remaining cream, and some black pepper.

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SWEET POTATO SOUP



Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Soup image

A delightfully rich-tasting soup. My husband likes this soup so much he refers to all butternut squashes as soup now. I recommend this with the silken tofu instead of milk - it adds protein to a fiber-rich soup, and no one will know it's there if you don't tell them! Serve warm with a sprinkling of grated Parmesan or Romano and some crusty toasted bread on the side.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup diced red onion
6 cups butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
6 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth, or as needed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 green chile pepper, halved lengthwise
1 cup silken tofu, divided
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large stock pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the butternut squash, sweet potatoes, and enough vegetable broth to cover. Stir in the thyme, ginger, turmeric, coriander, black pepper, and chile pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until vegetables are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove and discard the chile pepper. Pour about 1/3 of the soup and 1/3 of the tofu into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Repeat with the remaining soup and tofu. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup and tofu right in the cooking pot.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH & SWEET POTATO SOUP



Roasted Butternut Squash & Sweet Potato Soup image

Squash was something my parents cooked when I was a kid, not often--but often enough. And they usually did the butter/brown sugar thing. I thought these people were crazy! Veggie massacre! I stayed far away and happily ate my "safe and sound" corn and carrots and beans. This past winter, there was squash of all kinds on sale...

BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SWEET POTATO SOUP

Butternut squash has sweet, fine-textured flesh that makes a delicious puree. And unlike many varieties of squash, its skin is thin enough to peel without much trouble. Try it in our velvety version of the classic hearty soup.
