  • 2 Tbs unsalted butter

  • 1 large Spanish onion, chopped

  • 2 celery stalks, chopped

  • 6 cups vegetable broth

  • 1 3-inch piece Parmesan cheese rind

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 2 butternut squash (about 1 1/2 pounds each), peeled, seeded, and chopped into 1-inch cubes

  • 1 tsp kosher salt

  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Directions
