Why is my butternut squash soup not smooth?
If you butternut squash soup does not come out smooth, then it may be that you didnt cook the butternut until tender. This may leave it come out a little lumpy when blended. To test that the roasted butternut is cooked poke with a fork to see that itis tender and soft. Blending the tender butternut will give a better smooth soup texture.
How to enhance butternut squash soup?
The best way to enhance your butternut soup is to add the spices that you like. Such as my favorite, cinnamon, nutmeg, or even curry powder. This recipe has tasty butter and onion and garlic as well as chicken style seasoning. It is all up to your taste. Serve with a dab of cream or Greek yogurt to spice the dish up.
Is it better to roast or steam butternut squash?
I prefer to roast the butternut with skins on to add so much more flavor. But you can soften you butternut or squashes with boiling, steaming or pressure cookers. As long as they are tender and cooked then they should produce a smooth soup. These will not add the flavor that roasting does though.
