Ingredients

• 5 lb butternut squash, peeled and cut into 3/4" dice

• 2 large shallots, quartered

• 3 TB extra-virgin olive oil

• sea salt, to taste

• white pepper, to taste

• 6 cups chicken stock

• honey, to taste (not too much)

• 1 tsp ground ginger

• 2/3 cup heavy cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Toss squash, onions and thyme in olive oil.

Spread mixture onto one or two large baking sheets.

Season with salt and pepper.

Roast 20–30 minutes until tender, stirring once or twice.

Remove from oven and transfer to a large saucepot.

Add stock, honey and ginger.

Simmer 10 minutes.

Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender or food processor until smooth.

Transfer to a clean saucepan and check seasoning.

When ready to serve, bring back to simmer, remove from heat and whisk in cream.

********************

For garnish, mix a little cinnamon with some crème fraiche.

Put creme into a small plastic bag, snip off a tip with scissors and use to pipe swirls on top of soup.

Cut cinnamon sticks in half as garnish---people also use this as a fun way to stir the crème fraiche into the soup :-)

P.S. I am gong to print this out and borrow Luisa's Idea of the martini glasses, I love that Idea although I have used them for cold soup before, didn't know you could use them for hot liquids.

Connor, you are AMAZING! What a great presentation, plus an excellent recipe - I have to try this (when I have more adults than kids at my table!)...this is such a unique idea, to serve the soup in mini martini glasses. Now I have to go buy some!!
