Notes
Notes: Before we embark on this delightful culinary journey, here are a few notes to ensure your Creamy Squash Soup turns out sublime:
- Squash Selection: Opt for sweet and nutty varieties of squash, such as butternut, kabocha, or delicata. Their natural sweetness adds depth to the soup without the need for excessive sugar.
- Roasting vs. Boiling: While boiling is a quick option, roasting the squash enhances its flavor by caramelizing its natural sugars. Roasting also reduces the water content, resulting in a thicker and more flavorful soup.
- Texture Control: Achieve the perfect consistency by adjusting the amount of broth or cream. For a thicker soup, use less liquid, and for a lighter version, add more broth.
- Garnish Galore: Elevate your presentation and flavor by garnishing your creamy squash soup with toasted pumpkin seeds, a drizzle of maple syrup, a swirl of crème fraîche, or a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
