To serve, place jars in a saucepan filled with cold water over medium heat until warm. Or, place a frozen jar in your lunchbox and reheat in the microwave for an on-the-go lunch.
GINGER BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
The combination of ginger and butternut squash is delicious and addictive. This recipe yields a creamy soup without the use of any cream. I love to whip this soup up with my immersion blender right in the pot. This soup also freezes well. You can serve it with a dollop of sour cream if you desire, although I serve it without a garnish. If you want to make this a completely dairy free soup, use dairy free margarine (Fleishman's unsalted, or Earth Balance.) Oh yeah, and you MUST use fresh ginger.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Using a sharp, sturdy knife, carefully cut off the stem of the butternut squash, then cut the squash in half vertically. Scoop out the seeds and either discard or save for roasting. Brush the inside of each half with the 2 teaspoons olive oil and place cut side down on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until a fork easily pierces the flesh, about 45 minutes. Remove squash halves from oven and set aside to cool a bit.
- Set a medium pot over low heat. When hot, add the olive oil and then the onion. Sweat the onion, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent but not golden, about 8 minutes. (To sweat onion, make sure your heat is low and you can barely hear a sizzle). Add 1 1/2 cups of the broth, ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and maple syrup. Bring to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Peel the skins off of the cooked butternut squash and add cooked flesh to the pot. Using an immersion blender or working with a countertop blender in batches, puree the entire mixture.
- Return the puree to the pan (if you are using a countertop blender; if you used an immersion blender, you're already there!) Stir in the coconut milk. Bring back to a simmer. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. If you prefer your soup to be thinner, add the remaining broth.
- Remove from heat, ladle into bowls, and add garnishes if desired. Serve.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Keeps for about 3 days.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH CHILI GINGER
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Cut the squash in half from top to bottom and scoop out the seeds. Put the squash and the garlic clove onto a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven until it is nice and soft, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. When it is cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and set aside with the garlic clove.
- While the squash is roasting, put the remaining tablespoon of oil and the butter into a large pot over low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until the onion is browned and caramelized, about 20 minutes.
- Squeeze the roasted garlic clove into the pan, discarding the skin. Add the squash, ginger, chilies to taste and stock. Turn the heat to high and bring it to a boil, then remove from the heat.
- Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender, getting it as smooth as possible. Pour into a clean pot while you blend the rest. Heat the soup until it is piping hot. Taste and season with salt and pepper and a squeeze of lime juice.
- To serve, ladle the soup into warm bowls, drizzle with a little coconut milk, scatter over some cilantro leaves and chilies.

ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP WITH GINGER CREAM

Yield 8-10 people

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425. Cut shallots and butternut squash in half lengthways and remove seeds with a spoon. Coat the shallots and squash in olive oil and season liberally with salt and fresh cracked pepper. Place peeled and halved shallots and squash halves cut side down on a baking sheet and roast together for 20 minutes or until squash is soft and has picked up some color. Remove squash from oven and let cool enough to handle (about 10 minutes). While squash is cooling, bring vegetable stock to a boil and start the ginger cream. In a small bowl combine sour cream, honey, and ginger and mix until blended and smooth (reserve in the refrigerator for garnish). Scoop out the flesh of the squash with a spoon and add to the boiling stock. When all squash flesh is added turn off the heat and add heavy cream and butter. Blend with a stick blender or in small batches with a regular blender until really smooth (being careful of hot liquids in the blender). Adjust seasoning and let soup stand for 10 minutes Before serving. Garnish with your ginger cream (I put mine in a plastic squeeze bottle but a dollop from a spoon is always nice as well.)
Tips:
- Choose the right butternut squash: Look for ones that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color.
- Roast the butternut squash before using it in the soup: This will help to caramelize the sugars in the squash and give the soup a richer flavor.
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger, and it will give the soup a more vibrant color.
- Add a little bit of heat to the soup: A pinch of cayenne pepper or a few drops of Sriracha sauce can help to balance out the sweetness of the butternut squash and ginger.
- Garnish the soup with something crunchy: Croutons, roasted nuts, or even a sprinkle of bacon can add a nice textural contrast to the soup.
Conclusion:
Butternut squash and ginger soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, making it a healthy choice for a meal. With its creamy texture and sweet and spicy flavor, butternut squash and ginger soup is sure to please everyone at your table.
