Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • ½ large kabocha squash, seeded

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • ½ small yellow onion, chopped

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

  • 1 cup vegetable broth

  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon, or to taste

  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg, or to taste

  • 1 pinch ground allspice, or to taste

Directions

  1. Place kabocha squash cut-side down into a microwave-safe baking dish. Pour 1/2 inch water around the squash. Microwave on high until tender, about 10 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.

  2. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a blender.

  3. Scoop kabocha squash flesh into the blender. Add pumpkin puree, vegetable broth, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Blend until smooth.

  4. Pour blended mixture into a saucepan. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.
