Roasted Butternut Squash Soup | 烤葫蘆南瓜湯



Compare to the non-roasted version, roasted butternut squash instead brings a tremendous different in the flavour.  The caramelized squash enhances the natural sweetness and roasty taste in the soup.

This classic soup is so easy to make and many people are properly eat it throughout fall and winter.  

To fasten the roasting process, I diced the butternut squash and roast it with other ingredients until they are caramelized.  In this way, all ingredients will be ready at the same time and simplify the cooking process.
