Steps:
- 1. Melt butter in pot, add garlic and onion. Sautée until soft. Add chicken broth and bring to boil. Add potatoes to broth. Once boiling again and softened, remove from heat. Add your seasonings now. When softened use an emulsion blender or place in a food processor. Blend well. This will have almost the consistency of baby food. It's great served with a spoon of sour cream on top, or maybe a couple small marshmallows and pecans!
ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SWEET POTATO BISQUE WITH SMOKED APPLEWOOD BACON
I tried out for the show 'Master Chef' this past October in New York City. One of my fellow contestants made a pumpkin soup with applewood bacon. He made it to the next round, but sadly I did not. This is my rendition of his soup. I made it my own by using butternut squash and sweet potato and made it richer by turning this into a bisque. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Please share your comments. For less-fat option substitute half-and-half with milk or nonfat half-and-half.

- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

- Bake in the preheated oven, flipping the vegetables once, until slightly caramelized and tender, about 60 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Add the oil and heat until just hot. Add the carrot, celery, onion, and ½ teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions just turn translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the jalapeno, garlic, thyme, and basil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are nice and brown, about 7 minutes.
- Stir in the tomatoes with their juices, then stir in the stock and sweet potato.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer. Simmer until the sweet potato is very, very tender, about 1 hour. The sweet potatoes should be soft enough to mash easily with the back of a spoon.
- Remove and discard the thyme sprigs.
- Using an immersion blender or stand blender (working in batches if necessary), puree until silky smooth.
- Reheat the soup over low heat.
- Stir in the cream.
- For a thinner soup, stir in more stock.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve hot.
Tips:
- Use Fresh Sweet Potatoes: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh sweet potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes.
- Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Roasting the sweet potatoes brings out their natural sweetness and adds a depth of flavor to the bisque.
- Use a Good-Quality Vegetable Broth: The quality of the vegetable broth you use will greatly impact the flavor of the bisque. Choose a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich, flavorful taste.
- Add a Touch of Spice: A pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of paprika adds a subtle warmth to the bisque.
- Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, or chives add a pop of color and freshness to the bisque.
