Butternut Squash And Cider Bisque
Adapted from Donna Karch –
Mountain Melody Gardens
by Diane Merle
Ingredient List
4 Tbsp (1/2 Stick) butter
2 cups white onion, diced
4 tsp curry powder
2 medium butternut squash
2 apples
3 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1 cup apple cider
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Cut squash in half through the stem end using a sharp chef's knife. (baking whole (20 min) or microwaving (5 min) before cutting can make it easier to cut).
Remove seeds and any tough fibers.
Place the halves cut-side down on a prepared pan.
Bake the squash until a fork inserts easily into the thickest part, about 30-45 minutes.
Let cool until easy to handle and scoop flesh from the shell, set aside.
Melt the butter in a large kettle and sauté the onions and curry powder over very low heat until soft.
Meanwhile, peel the apples and cut them into chunks.
Add the apples, squash and stock to the kettle and simmer for 25 minutes.
Mash the solids with a potato masher or blenderize.
Return pureed bisque to the kettle; add the cider, cider vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper.
