Directions
Butternut Squash Soup With Maple, My step-daughter brought this recipe to me She will not normally eat squash, but she loves this soup CAUTION!!! Before blending, be sure the soup has cooled slightly or it may pop the top off your blender & make a mess & possibly burn you!, Super yummy!! The hardest part was prepping the squash, but with the right tools it’ll be easier next time (wide peeler, and grapefruit spoon to get the seeds and fibers out) Not sure about the lime juice, though Only put in 1/2 a lime Made the soup curdle a bit – not big chunks, but I did notice it Can anyone explain why it was added in a recipe that included cream?
Post note: Using lime (or even orange, lemon) rind eliminates the problem of curdling , So good! Easy to make and super easy Added a can of pumpkin that I had laying around just to thicken it up a bit 🙂
