Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    After reading this recipe, I was excited to find Red Kuri squash at Whole Foods Market and made this soup. I thought it was fine, but I have another winter squash (butternut) soup recipe I prefer to this one. Flavor was not super squash-y (and I love winter squash) - I think the milk might have blunted its flavor and/or perhaps my squash wasn't very flavorful. Seasoning more heavily and adding a bit of maple syrup helped to bring it forward more. You could definitely taste the leeks, however.

    I like how easy this soup is to make. I wish the flavor was sharper. It will need my usual doctoring--some vinegar, some hot sauce . . .

    Similar to my experience with celery-celery soup: on first taste, this is unremarkable. Texture is lovely. Utterly silky. But flavour is not at all interesting yet. I'm going to let it think about itself over a day or two and try again. That seems to make a big difference with the Dorie soups I've made so far. And if THAT doesn't work, in go the roasted chestnuts!

    Great flavour. Using kuri squash is key as the flavour is incomparable. Love the hint of chestnut. http://wscwong.typepad.com/dessert_by_candy/2010/10/immersion-blender-i-miss-you-so.html

    The chestnuts give it a wonderful and unique flavor - I can only imagine what the real Kuri squash would taste like.
