Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oilÂ
1 large onion, choppedÂ
½ teaspoon saltÂ
1 butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cubedÂ
3 garlic cloves, choppedÂ
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage (optional)Â
3 to 4 cups vegetable brothÂ
Ground black pepper to tasteÂ
Preparation
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, salt, and several grinds of fresh pepper and sauté until soft, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the squash and cook until it begins to soften, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes.Â
Add the garlic and sage (if using). Stir and cook 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant, then add 3 cups of the broth. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the squash is tender, 20 to 30 minutes.Â
Let cool slightly and blend until smooth using a blender or hand blender. If your soup is too thick, add up to 1 cup more broth and blend.Â
Enjoy with crusty bread!
