Butternut Squash Hominy Soup image

This dish was inspired by traditional posole, but it's vegetarian. To make it vegan, skip the sour cream.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small red onion, chopped
4 cups cubed peeled butternut squash (about 1 pound 6 ounces), large pieces cut in half
2 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large canned chipotle chile pepper, plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
1 1/4 cups frozen fire-roasted corn, thawed
1 29-ounce can white hominy, drained
1 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup sour cream
3 small radishes
1 5-ounce package baby arugula

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large wide pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the red onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the squash, 2 teaspoons cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the squash is well coated, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Put the chipotle and adobo sauce in a blender with 1/2 cup corn and 2 cups water; blend until smooth. Transfer the chipotle puree to the pot, along with 4 cups water, the hominy and black beans. Cover, increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Uncover, adjust the heat to maintain a fast simmer and cook until the squash is tender and the soup has thickened slightly, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, thin the sour cream with 2 to 3 teaspoons water. Thinly slice the radishes for topping.
  • Remove the soup from the heat and add the remaining 3/4 cup corn, the arugula and remaining 1/4 teaspoon cumin. Stir just to heat the corn and wilt the arugula; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls; drizzle with the sour cream and top with the radishes.

CHEF JOHN'S ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP



Chef John's Roasted Butternut Squash Soup image

My favorite fall soup of all time, roasted butternut squash soup is cheap, easy, nutrition, and absolutely delicious. If you're feeling like something a bit more substantial, try this topped with a handful of crispy bacon or diced ham.

Time 2h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 chopped onion
1 cup sliced carrots
6 whole garlic cloves, peeled
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste - divided
1 (3 1/2) pound butternut squash, halved lengthwise and seeded
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 large sage leaves
6 cups chicken broth, plus more if needed
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 pinch cayenne pepper
½ cup creme fraiche
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Drizzle olive oil into large roasting pan. Add onion, carrots, garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt. Toss until coated in oil. Place squash halves flesh side up on the chopped vegetables. Sprinkle squash with additional salt.
  • Roast in preheated oven until squash is tender and easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour. Allow vegetables to cool a bit.
  • Melt butter over medium heat. Butter will foam, and start to turn a golden brown. Reduce heat to low. When butter turns from golden to a light, nutty brown, remove pan from heat and immediately add sage leaves. Stir to infuse the butter with sage.
  • Scoop out squash flesh and place in roasting pan with roasted chopped vegetables. Transfer mixture into large stock pot. Stir in chicken broth, brown sage butter, and maple syrup. Place pot over high heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; slowly simmer to blend flavors, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Blend until very smooth with an immersion blender, 3 or 4 minutes. Pass mixture through a strainer to remove any remaining fibrous bits.
  • If soup seems too thick, add a few tablespoons of water or chicken broth. Stir in apple cider vinegar, a pinch of salt (or to taste), and cayenne pepper. Garnish servings of soup with a dollop of creme fraiche and chopped chives.
