Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- With a sharp knife, prick the squash in several places to allow steam to escape while it cooks (otherwise, it could burst).
- Place the squash in a baking dish lined with foil and roast for about 90 minutes, until the squash is soft when you push on it.
- Let cool for 30 minutes, so it's easier to handle, then peel, seed, and remove strings. Cut the roasted squash into 1/2-inch pieces, or scoop meat out with a spoon.
- In a heavy soup kettle, heat the olive oil and add the onions. Cook until light golden brown and add the leeks and cumin. Cook for 2 minutes and add the garlic and ginger.
- When the garlic is fragrant, add the maple syrup, soy sauce, bourbon, sherry, and nutmeg. Add the squash and stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cook gently for 15 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender (or a regular blender), puree the soup until very smooth.
- Add the evaporated milk, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes: do not bring to a boil.
- Add the cornstarch mixture and serve in soup plates.
- If you like, garnish this soup with garlic and Parmesan cheese croûtons and a dollop of nonfat sour cream.
