Yield 45

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 pounds acorn squash, halved and seeded (see Note)
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
1 piece (1 inch) fresh ginger, cut in half lengthwise
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
3 cups water
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons heavy (or whipping) cream
2 tablespoons cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • 1. Place the squash halves cut sides up on a large plate or dish. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 6 minutes, or until very soft. Set aside until cool enough to handle. 2. Place the onion, ginger, coriander, allspice, salt, butter, and water in a large bowl. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 10 minutes. Remove the ginger pieces. 3. Scoop the pulp out of the squash halves and add to the spice mixture. Puree the mixture in a food processor or food mill, then return it to the bowl. Cover and microwave on HIGH for 6 minutes, or until heated through. Stir in the lime juice and cream, sprinkle the cilantro over the top, and serve hot. Note: You can use any other hard squash or pumpkin or a combination instead of acorn squash. Cooking times vary slightly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. It was still tasty, but it wasn't as thick and creamy as I was hoping for.

This soup was way too thick for my taste. I had to add a lot of water to thin it out.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's just because I'm not a big fan of ginger. Other than that, the soup was delicious!

I'm not a huge fan of acorn squash, but this soup was actually really good! The ginger and lime really helped to balance out the flavor of the squash.
