  1. I made this yummy squash soup this week. Davi actually thought is was potato cheese soup at first (without the potaoes in it) It was delicious. I thought i would share it. I know it has a lot of butter in it, but maybe someone could think of a substitute and share your thoughts.

    For squash soup
    3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
    1 medium onion, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 lb yellow summer squash, halved and thinly sliced
    2 carrots, thinly sliced
    1 yellow-fleshed potato (1/2 lb), peeled, halved,
    4 cups chicken stock or reduced-sodium chicken broth

    for pistou
    3/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
    1/2 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley sprigs
    1 large scallion, chopped (1/2 cup)
    1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    2 tablespoons water
    1/4 teaspoon salt

    preparation

    Make soup:
    Melt butter in a 6- to 8-quart wide heavy pot over moderate heat, then cook onion with salt, stirring, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add squash, carrots, potato, and stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, then simmer, partially covered, until vegetables are very tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and cool soup, uncovered, 10 minutes.
    Working in batches, purée; soup in a blender until smooth (use caution when blending hot liquids) and transfer to a bowl. Return puré to cleaned pot and thin with water if desired; simmer 3 minutes. Season with salt.
    Make pistou while vegetables simmer:
    Pulse mint, parsley, and scallion in a food processor until finely chopped. With motor running, add oil in a stream, then add water and salt, blending until incorporated.
    Swirl 1 tablespoon pistou into each bowl of soup.
