I had the opportunity to try this soup a few months ago at a Relief Society (women of the church) meeting and I thought soup would be ideal for the cold winter days we have been having. Plus, the ingredients are currently in season.
The recipe is from allrecipes.com but there were a few additions to the original recipe.
Here is the link: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/curried-butternut-squash-and-pear-soup/detail.aspx
Additions:
1. A sprinkle of cloves at the same time you add the curry powder
2. chopped basil for garnish and taste
3. Cinnamon and brown sugar apples - I peeled, cored, and chopped 2 apples. They were added to a pan with a little bit of water and sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon. Covered and cooked on medium heat until soft.
The sweetness of the apples gave the soup a wonderful flavor.
Where did I find the ingredients?
Butternut squash, apples, onion and pears - All items are in-season and were picked up at the Everett Co-op from local farmers
1/2 and 1/2 - Twin Brook Creamery ( featured in a previous post) also makes 1/2 and 1/2 which can be found at Haggen
Basil and spices - Everett Co-op
