    I loved this soup and served it at a Break Fast on Yom Kippur. I made a couple of small changes and used some shortcuts--
    Since I don't like sweet soups, I used about 4 cups of stock and 1 cups of apple cider for the liquid. I found frozen pureed butternut squash in the freezer section of my local market (with nothing added! and that saved me from peeling, cooking and mashing. And as for the apples, I used a mixture of Braeburn and Ginger Gold.
    It was delicious. Creamy but without the fat or weight of cream; a great balance of savory and sweet with a slight kick from the curry. YUMMY!

    This was my first time making butternut squash soup and it was fabulous. Made a few adjustments. I used my homemade chicken stalk instead of apple cider. I thought it maybe to sweet. Used 5 apples and added about a teaspoon of nutmeg and ginger. Thanks Ina!

    I'm always looking for different ways to make butternut squash soup and tried this one. It was good, but sweet as anticipated with the apple and juice. I liked it for something different, but my husband was not a fan. Will not make this again, but if you like sweet its a good recipe.

    I made this, but halved the recipe. I read the reviews and was concerned about the sweetness, so I used water, a little bit of hard apple cider, and at the end I tempered the sweetness out with some broth and bit of heavy cream. I whipped this up on short notice for my parents and they raved about it. It was very nourishing and had great flavor. I am thinking about trying it with cumin and chili powder instead of curry and garnishing it with some cilantro and sour cream.

    I loved the flavor of this soup. The curry was a great addition to the flavor and the apples provided a little sweetness. It's a creamy consistency without having cream in it.

    This was one of the best soups I have ever made! I absolutely loved it!!! I was afraid of the amount of onions, when I put them in the pot to soften they just seemed like such a huge pile. But... this soup did not taste like onion-butternut squash- apple soup, it was just right. I haven't grown butternut squash in my garden for a few years, but I plan to this year just to make more of this soup.

    I hate rating this so low since it has gotten such great reviews but it was a disaster. It tasted more like apple sauce soup rather than butternut squash soup. I was soo disapointed!

    I substituted fresh pumpkin (red warty thing because it was what I had around, and it was fantastic! This is great on a cold winter day, and I will definitely make it again with squash.

    Whenever I make this soup, whether for my own company or to bring to a party...EVERYONE asks for the recipe. This soup has a very complex taste and is simply delicious! Ina is the best...I never go wrong with her recipes.

    This soup is very good, but a tad bit spicy. I like spicy, but not all of my family does. Next time I make this I will use about half the amount of curry powder. I also added some heavy cream at the end of the cooking process which made it creamier. The peeling of the squash & apples was quite a bit of work (which I don't mind. However, I am curious if some of the other butternut squash soup recipes on Food Network are just as good but easier. I noticed some of them have you bake the squash, sliced in half, with the skin on. Then, the meat is spooned out after baking. Sure sounds a lot easier than this recipe.
