  • “I had a butternut squash soup recipe that I loved- but after trying this recipe, my wife and I have put this one on the top of the list!!I bought the ingredients before looking for the recipe, luckily I had all of the extra ingredients on hand.I normally use dill and I did not add it (except for the garnish) and the taste was wonderful!Something about the curry/cumin combination really did it for us!Great soup- it is on our ‘make again’ list.”

  • “Delicious soup! Slight variation since the Butternut squash I had was precut I didn’t roast the squash.”

  • “Wonderfully flavored! After trying several butternut squash soup recipes, this was by far our favorite. The curry gives it a distinctive taste that makes it stand apart from other similar soups. However, I did omit the sugar and doubled the curry. Did I mention it was easy to make? My emulsion blender saved a lot of work!”
