Golden Harvest Soup

Ingredients

  • 3 butternut squashes

  • 3 kabocha or hubbard squashes

  • 4 leeks

  • 1 Tbs olive oil

  • 8 cups stock or water*

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 1 tsp sea salt*

  • 1/4 tsp white pepper

  • 1 tsp nutmeg

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Serve this satisfying soup throughout fall and winter. It’s easy to make and, with holiday spices, makes a delightful start to the Thanksgiving meal.

Directions

  • Clean and halve each squash from top to bottom. Remove seeds. Lay squash halves face down and cut across in 1/2-inch (1.25cm) slices. Cut the skin off each piece and then chop into 1/4-inch (0.5cm) chunks. Clean leeks and cut on the diagonal in 1/4-inch (0.5cm) pieces. Set aside one cup.
  • In a large stock pot, sauté the rest of the leeks in oil for 1 minute. Add the squash and sauté for another 5 minutes. Add the stock or water and bring to a boil, then turn flame down and let simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Add oats and simmer 5 minutes. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon and let simmer 5 to 10 minutes, until the squash is soft. Purée in a food processor until very smooth. Press soup through a fine-meshed sieve if a smoother texture is desired. Transfer soup back to pot and keep warm.
  • In a small skillet, sauté the remaining 1 cup (180g) of leeks in a little olive oil, scatter over warm soup, and serve.
