That looks really good. My sister made BNSquash soup for Christmas. She mixed in Cilantro, Curry, and topped it with apples soaked in apple juice and yogurt. Really really really good.

She also used vegetable stock instead of Chicken stock being that she is a vegetarian. Regardless, it was really good. I want to try it your way though because I am NOT a vegetarian and I like the taste of chicken. This looks really really really good. I can't wait to try it.

Hi Betty! Excellent vids! I would like for you to add some

Cajun Sausages to your butternut squash soup recipe.

Place to get the best cajun sausages is: Corralitos Sausage Company.

Prepare to be impressed.

To make cutting a round squash safer, cut off a slice from one side of it, so that it has a flat surface to rest on. That way, it won't roll and you don't risk cutting yourself.

I like this recipe, thanks Betty! Nice job with your rendition, I think yours looks better:) I hate to keep repeating myself... but.. again ...I will have to try this!!

[bettyskitchen]

I'm glad you liked the recipe. It was hard for me to decide whether to do the filet mignon or this soup. I chose the soup, since I hadn't posted anything like it! I hope you enjoy it! I will miss you on my break,

what does butternut squash taste like ? i have never tried it . great vid betty ty

[bettyskitchen]

I would compare its taste to the taste of pumpkin. It's mild, but very good!

Hi Richelle!

Thanks for your kind comment! I always appreciate hearing from you!

Thanks for the recipe Betty. We have a butternut squash sometimes in a vegetable basket and we have only cut it into cubes and steamed it with other vegetables. Next time we will try your soup recipe as it looks so delicious. :-)

[bettyskitchen]

Hi Richard,

Yes, if you get tired of steamed butternut squash, just cook it in broth, throw it in the blender, and spice it up for a lovely soup! Thanks for your sweet comment!

Looks fantastic, Betty, cant wait to try it. For all our UK friends, here in US we have many kinds of squashes: Butternut squash, Acorn squash, crooked neck squash (yellow kind), straight necked squash (yellow also), zucchini squash, and actually pumpkin is a squash which we just call pumpkin like you do. Usually when we say "squash" we mean the yellow variety we love to slice, bread it, and fry..southern tradition here. Hope that helps. Thanks for the recipe, Betty---Angie

Hi Angie,

Thanks so much for your great explanation of the difference among various squash! That will be helpful to a lot of people who are remembering when I dragged out bright yellow summer squash and green zucchini squash for making a summery casserole! And now I'm calling this thing squash? Thanks, Angie--you saved me a lot of writing! You're the best!

I like it. Im trying a recipe similiar with pumpkin. Thanks.

[bettyskitchen]

This would be *great* with pumpkin! Thanks for mentioning it!

--Betty :)

[slmaia]

Looks delicious Betty! Thanks for taking us through your preparation also, because I'm always buying things like Butternut Squash and then I'm never sure what to do with it!! :)

[bettyskitchen]

Thanks, Delia!

This is a little stubborn to work with--but worth the trouble!

Oh so that's what squash is in the US! Who would've thought! How cute! Just butternut pumpkin to us over here. So, what do you call just regular large pumpkins then?...just pumpkins, or do you call them a type of 'squash' too?

Whatever you call it though, looks delicious! A great soup I'll have to try! I was expecting a different type of squash (the yellow veggies we call squash) soup though! A must-cook in winter...or just roast pumpkin as is a staple here with a big Sunday roast.

[bettyskitchen]

Butternut squash matures along with pumpkins. We get our yellow squash during the summer with all of our typical green beans, corn, tomatoes, etc. This squash is great for comforting winter soups!

I love butternut squash soup. I have a recipe that has curry in it and you roast the butternut squash. It is served with a lime crema. I got it from the Food Network, Robin Miller a long time ago and it is delicious. I need to try you recipe!

[bettyskitchen]

The curry and lime cream sound like great additions to this soup! I will try experimenting with those next time!

--Betty :)

[MapleTraveler]

Ahhh wanted to try one of these recipes :)

[bettyskitchen]

I wish I could have sent each one of you a bite! I hope you enjoy the recipe!
