I have already passed by this great pumpkin 100 times and Pumpkin and then decided again for a classic pumpkin. Hokkaido decided. But at my last purchase it was finally time, a butternut squash landed in my shopping cart. After that, it was time to research what I could do with these wonderful vegetables. Since it is getting colder and colder and I am longing for warming dishes, it had to be a Soup be. Beautifully seasoned with curry powder and refined with Cashews , which provide a wonderful creaminess. On your mark, get set and go with this warming wonder for body and soul.
Butternut squash soup, here the name says it all
Now how does the butternut differ from other Pumpkin varieties ? As the name suggests, it tastes somewhat nutty and not as fruity as its brother the Hokkaido. I find him in any case very tasty and once a nice change.
Soups Time Baby!
It’s getting creamy
Now how do we get the soup especially creamy? By blending them very finely in a high-powered blender with a handful of soaked cashews. I’ve linked you to my favorite blender below (no sponsoring). It really makes a huge difference whether you puree the soup with a really good blender or a magic wand. If your blender is not so powerful, you can also replace the cashews with coconut milk.
Very tasty with it tastes homemade naan bread, spelt rolls or baguette. So that our soup still gets a certain extra, we sprinkle them with fresh parsley. Not to forget, of course, the chickpeas. Yum!
