Warm Up Your Fall with Thermodyne: Creamy Butternut Squash Soup Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 large butternut squash, peeled and cubed
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil for roasting
Instructions:
- Roast the Squash: Preheat your Thermodyne to 400°F. Toss the cubed butternut squash in olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
- Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Simmer: Add the roasted squash to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to cook for about 15 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
- Blend to Perfection: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you prefer a richer soup, stir in the heavy cream at this stage. Add nutmeg and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Slow Cook with Thermodyne: Transfer the blended soup into a Thermodyne unit set to 180°F, letting it slow-cook for 2-3 hours. This process enhances the flavors while ensuring the soup stays warm without overcooking or drying out.
Serve and Enjoy: Once ready, ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with a sprinkle of nutmeg or roasted pumpkin seeds, and pair it with crusty bread for a perfect fall meal. Thermodyne’s precise heat control makes this recipe a breeze, allowing you to focus on enjoying the flavors of the season.
