Butternut Squash Soup
Squash, gourds and all things orange seem especially appealing in the fall, when they are like the colors of the falling leaves. This recipe was inspired by one in Food and Wine Magazine. Their version was so time-consuming and complicated, I nearly skipped it entirely. (The first instruction practically had you growing the butternut squash and plucking it from the field.) I prefer this quicker way to get to the same goal. The result is a light and creamy soup, with just a hint of sweetness. To peel ginger, use a sharp paring knife. Remove the rough, bumpy skin about as far down as you think you need to yield the amount called for. Then grate or mince.

I love this soup. I make it all the time. The ginger give it such a unique flavor. And I love anything with coconut.
