Ingredients
4 servings
- •1.5 tablespoons butter
- •0.5 onion, sliced
- •2 cloves garlic
- •2 sprigs fresh thyme
- •0.5 butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes
- •4 cups chicken stock
- •0.5 cube chicken bouillon
- •1 pinch ground cumin
- •1 pinch ground allspice
- •salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and thyme and sauté until onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add squash and chicken broth; bring to a simmer, then cook until squash is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Crumble bouillon into the soup. Season with cumin, allspice, salt, and pepper, then remove from heat.
- Working in batches, pour soup into a blender, filling no more than halfway. Hold the lid in place with a kitchen towel, then carefully start the blender using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to purée. Pour soup into a serving bowl. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and purée the soup in the pot.
