AUTUMN SQUASH SOUP
If you've never tried a butternut squash soup or pumpkin soup, then you're missing out...especially if you're a lover of sweets. Squash soup is one of my favorite things to eat in the fall and winter. When cooked, winter squashes turn soft and sweet, making them extremely versatile and comforting to eat when the weather is cool. Winter squashes like acorn and butternut squash can be hard to cut, so I like to slice them in half vertically, bake them, and then scoop out the flesh to use in a recipe. This way I don't have to kill my arm trying to cut up the squash when it's still hard as a rock.

Steps:
- Cut the squashes in half vertically and arrange them face-up on a sheet pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil on top of the squash and bake in the oven at 400 degrees for about an hour. Remove the squash when it's tender and soft. Set aside to cool.
- Chop up the onion, garlic, and jalapeño and put them in a big soup pot with the other tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Saute for about 10 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften, stirring frequently. Add in the vegetable stock, coconut milk, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Chop up the sage and thyme and add it to the pot and stir. Remove the squashes from their skins by either scooping out the flesh or cutting into big moons and slicing like a cantaloupe. Drop the cooked squash into the soup. Pour in the maple syrup (optional) and stir.
- Puree the soup with an immersion blender or with your food processor or blender. When the soup is smooth, it's ready to eat. Adjust seasonings to your taste.
- Tip 1: Try adding a little curry powder to this recipe for an extra kick of flavor. I love curry seasonings in squash soup, and I bet it would be a nice addition if you're a curry lover.
- Tip 2: This makes a pretty thick soup. If you like it a little thinner, you can always increase the amount of vegetable stock in the recipe.

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. Gather your ingredients.
- 3. Melt the butter in a saucepan, over medium heat.
- 4. When the foaming subsides, add the wine, lemon juice and 1/2 cup of chicken stock.
- 5. Chef's Note: This is a standard base for many hearty soups and stews. If you don't want to use the white wine, you can always substitute an equal amount of white grape juice.
- 6. Bring to a simmer, and allow the liquid to slowly reduce by half, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- 7. Mix in the cream.
- 8. Add the remainder of the chicken stock.
- 9. Chef's Note: If you are using store-bought chicken stock, or (heaven forbid) broth. Then, when you season the soup watch the salt.
- 10. Add the flour and water to a small bowl, and whisk together.
- 11. Add to the pot, and simmer until it begins to thicken, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- 12. Add the carrots, and continue to simmer for 10 - 12 minutes.
- 13. Add the onions, celery, , and then bring the pot back up to a simmer.
- 14. Continue to simmer for 10 to 12 minutes.
- 15. Add the chicken, and then let it warm up with the soup, about 5 minutes.
- 16. Chef's Note: Although I am a big fan of brining chicken breasts, for this recipe, don't. It isn't necessary, and it will add unwanted additional salt.
- 17. Chef's Tip: If you want to add an additional level of flavor to this dish, then salt & pepper the chicken breasts, and sauté them in a bit of olive oil and sweet butter. When they are cooked, tear them into rustic pieces, and pour the liquid from the sauté pan into the pot, when you add the chicken stock in step 8.
- 18. VARIATIONS ON A THEME
- 19. Dumplings: After you add the chicken, drop your dumplings on the top of the soup, cover, and allow to slowly simmer, for 10 to 12 minutes. Here's an excellent dumplings recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/bread/other-bread/autumn-essentials-herb-cheddar-dumplings.html
- 20. Pasta: Get you favorite egg noodles and stir into the soup. Follow package directions as to how long the noodles need to cook. If you are using homemade egg noodles (YUM) they will only need about 3 to 5 minutes in the liquid before they are cooked. Here's an excellent egg noodle recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/main-course/pasta/master-recipe-egg-noodle-dough.html?p=4
- 21. Chef's Note: If you don't want to make your own dumplings, or pasta, no worries. Just pick up your favorite brand at the local grocer. However, if you take the time to make homemade (it really isn't that difficult), you will be glad that you did.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil and butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Mix in brown sugar.
- Finely chop ginger and garlic in a food processor. Add them to the onion mixture and cook, stirring frequently, until garlic is beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the sage and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Pour in apple juice and stir to loosen any browned bits in the pan. Add peanut butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring well after each addition. Mix in chicken broth and squash.

Season the soup to taste with hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar, tasting frequently until flavors are balanced. Simmer for 15 minutes. If the soup seems too thick, add water 1/2 cup at a time.
- Remove the soup from the heat. Use an immersion blender to partially puree the mixture, leaving some of the onion intact. (If you don't have a handheld stick blender, carefully puree the hot soup in batches in a regular blender.) Pour in cream and blend to lighten the texture.
- Ladle soup into warmed bowls and garnish with fresh-grated nutmeg and finely chopped pistachios.
