    Amazing! I substituted dried thyme for the sage, since I didn't have that on hand. My husband and I both loved this. Plan to make another batch to freeze. Delicious!

    Very good, very rich! I used beef stock instead of chicken, because of everything I forgot to buy chicken stock. It came out very well. I served it with a sliced baguette as well. I would maybe reduce the cream a bit but otherwise the soup was delicious and great for this cold, rainy day!

    This soup was better than I expected. I used chorizo as one person suggested, skipped the marjoram and sage, used beef broth instead of chicken, and accidentally forgot the cider vinegar at the end. Oh and lastly, I didn't puree all of the meat in the soup. I just simmered the squash in the broth and added a bit of the meat for flavor. I then pureed it and then added the meat in.

    So even w/ all of these changes the soup was delish. The chorizo really gave it a great flavor and the squash and cream tamed it down a bit so that my young boys could eat it. They really enjoyed it too so we will be making this again in the future!

    This was AWESOME!!! We did alter a tad. We used sweet turkey italian sausage and left out the cream. We also skipped the fried sage leaves because they turned black and nasty looking. We made crostini out of a fabulous baguette and served it with the soup and it just made the recipe so much better! You MUST try it! I loved it even without the cream and we really do not need the added fat!! This is a must try whether you alter it or not!!! Very hardy even blended.

    This is absolutely fantastic. I've never even had a squash soup, but decided to give this a try on a cold weekend night. Followed the recipe exactly except I excluded the marjoram.

    When I sat down in front of the TV with a bowl, I found myself saying out loud, "this is unbelievable." It was that good.

    One of the better dishes I've had in the last 6 months. It was pretty much perfect in my opinion.

    I love this recipe! I do not puree the soup entirely nor do I pass it through a fine-mesh strainer. It is absolutely delicious!

    Made this delicious soup for the first time last year. Everyone loved it! Definitely making it again this year.

    Used banana squash; removed the skin, cubed & used olive oil -- roasted at 400 for about 35 minutes or so. Also, added chicken sausage with roasted red pepper & spinach. Pureed the squash and sausage, but left some chunks. Only used about 1/3 cup of milk. I would make this again and perhaps freeze the leftovers.

    Banana squash is much sweeter than butternut squash.

    One of my wife's favorite things that I make and every time I make it everyone goes gaga for it. Everyone wants the recipe, too. Absolutely perfect soup. One tip: Don't make the mistake that I once did of using pre-cubed squash pieces instead of whole butternut squash. The taste is completely different and nowhere near as good. It's a bit of a hassle to scoop-out the squash but well worth the effort.
    One of our favorite dishes. Bravo, Emeril!
