Now for the food. You know it's truly fall when you finally break out the butternut squash. Or at least that's the case for me. I never make butternut squash dishes until well into the season, and that's not intentional. I usually just forget about the poor little b-nut squash.
I only remembered him this time because the November recipe of the month in the Happy Herbivore 2012 wall calendar is this Butternut Squash Soup:
I've made various butternut squash soups in the past, but none were as simple as this recipe. It's simply squash, curry powder, and vegetable broth. That's it. But I did add a lot of homemade hot sauce and a little almond-coconut milk (to tone down way too much hot sauce) upon serving.
What's your favorite fall veggie?
Chanterelles!
ReplyDeletekabocha, blue hubbard squash and beets.
ReplyDeleteI think butternut squash is my fave also - and I have yet to make soup with it! I like to buy the frozen, pre-chopped squash because I always get intimidated by the real deal.
ReplyDeleteBrussels sprouts and squashes of all kinds! I can't forget about butternuts, cause the CSA sends me a few honkers every winter.
