Can you use frozen squash?

While it’s in season and at its peak, go for the fresh butternut squash! However, throughout the year, you can thaw the squash and add it to the processor, following the instructions below.

Save the Squash Seeds

Don’t let the seeds from butternut squash go to waste. You can toast them with your favorite seasonings just like you would do with pumpkin seeds. They are a healthy, crunchy snack-and also a great topping for butternut squash soup.
Start by soaking the seeds in a bowl of water for a few minutes. This will help separate the seeds from the pulp. Pat the seeds dry with a clean dish towel or paper towels, then toss with some olive oil, salt, pepper, and whatever spices (sweet or savory) that you like before roasting.

Using Other Squash for Creamy Coconut

You can substitute honeynut, acorn squash, and sugar pumpkin for the butternut squash in this soup. Each has a similarly sweet, creamy texture

• Take the squash out of the oven and allow to cool a little (until you can handle the heat).
• Take off any stalk ends and slice through several times and then pop into your large jug blender. If you have a powerful blender, then you can leave the skin intact, otherwise you might prefer to scoop out the squash first, and discard the skin.
• Pour in the coconut milk and water.
• Toss in the crushed garlic and finely grated ginger.
• Add salt, pepper & coriander.
• Securely place the lid on your blender and blend until creamy smooth. It will be quite full, so you may need to use your tamper tool to press it down (or use a spoon between pulses, just to help it initially blend down, if needed).
• Pop into a pan. Add any extras and gently cook on the stove for a further 10 minutes, placing a lid on, between frequent stirring.
• This extra 15 minutes is necessary to cook the garlic, to heat through any extras and help the flavours dance together.If you don’t want to add any extras, then you would probably be better off gently cooking your garlic first. The easiest way to do this is to bake it for to minutes along with the squash. Be sure, however, not to over bake the garlic, because it won’t taste too good if you do. 10 minutes should be enough. Then simply blend, make sure it’s hot enough to eat and serve right away.

Ladle the pumpkin soup into bowls. Top each with shrimp, pumpkin seeds, cilantro leaves, and balsamic drizzle. Enjoy!
