Barbara's Tips
The butternut squash can be peeled with a regular potato peeler. | |
Make sure the soup is cooled to room temperature before placing it in the blender. Hot liquids can explode out of the blender, splattering all over, potentially causing burns. Work in batches to make sure you don’t overfill the blender. | |
If soup is too thick to puree in the blender, add some water to thin it out. If you have an immersion blender, you can puree the soup right in the soup pot. |
