CHAI-INFUSED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP Chai-Infused Butternut Squash Soup - photo 1

CHAI-INFUSED BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP

Chai-Infused Butternut Squash Soup

SERVES 4 TO 6

Picture 2WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS Butternut squash soup derives much of its flavor from a wealth of warm spices. For big flavor from the outset, we started by sauting our squash to coax out some of its natural sugars. Moving on to the spice factor, we landed on another ingredient that packed similar flavors: chai. By steeping a single chai-flavored tea bag with the squash while it simmered, we infused our soup with a melange of warm spice notes. (And our soup doesnt taste like tea. Really.) To finish, a modest amount of crme frache ensured a creamy texture and balanced the warm flavors with a tangy bite. If you cant find crme frache, substitute heavy cream; do not substitute sour cream. See the that follows the recipe.

pounds butternut squash

scallions

tablespoons unsalted butter

tablespoon packed brown sugar

chai-flavored tea bag

tablespoons crme frache,

plus extra for serving

Peel and seed squash, then cut into -inch pieces. Mince scallion whites and slice scallion greens; keep whites and greens separate. Melt butter in Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add squash, scallion whites, sugar, teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until squash is softened and lightly browned, about 8 minutes.

Stir in 5 cups water, scraping up any browned bits. Add tea bag. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently until squash is tender, about 20 minutes.

Remove tea bag. Working in batches, process soup in blender until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Return soup to clean pot and whisk in crme frache. Add extra water as needed to adjust soups consistency. Heat mixture gently over low heat until hot (do not boil). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle individual portions with scallion greens before serving.

INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT


CHAI TEA

Chai is a fragrant, Indian black-tea blend that often includes cardamom, cinnamon, clove, ginger, and black pepper, though the exact formulation can vary from brand to brand; you can find it in any supermarket. We tested this recipe with several brands of chai, both caffeinated and decaffeinated, and they all worked well.

Curried Cauliflower Soup SERVES 4 TO 6 WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS We combined - photo 5
Curried Cauliflower Soup

SERVES 4 TO 6

Picture 6WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS We combined two ingredients popular in Indian cuisinecurry and cauliflowerin this boldly flavored soup. Coconut milk is often used in Indian cooking for its richness and sweetness, but regular coconut milk overpowered the delicate flavor of the cauliflower. Switching to the light variety worked better; it still provided a nice creaminess and subtle coconut flavor, but now we were able to taste the curry and cauliflower. Fresh ginger added spicy warmth to our soup, but it was calling out for more aromatic presence. Chopped scallion whites did the trick, plus we could use the scallion greens to garnish our finished soup. Wed typically cook the curry powder, ginger, and scallion whites in oil to deepen their flavors, but a portion of the coconut milk worked well in its place and kept our ingredient list down. See the that follows the recipe.

head cauliflower (2 pounds)

scallions

Fresh ginger

(14-ounce) can light coconut milk

teaspoons curry powder

cups chicken broth

Core and coarsely chop cauliflower. Mince scallion whites and slice scallion greens; keep whites and greens separate. Grate 1 tablespoon ginger. Heat cup coconut milk in Dutch oven over medium heat until simmering. Add scallion whites, ginger, and curry powder and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in broth, cauliflower, teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper and simmer until cauliflower is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Working in batches, process soup in blender until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Return soup to clean pot and whisk in remaining 1 cups coconut milk. Add extra water as needed to adjust soups consistency. Heat mixture gently over low heat until hot (do not boil). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle individual portions with scallion greens before serving.

INGREDIENT SPOTLIGHT


CURRY POWDER

Though blends can vary dramatically, curry powders come in two basic stylesmild or sweet and a hotter version called Madras. The former combines as many as 20 different ground spices, herbs, and seeds, the staples being turmeric (which accounts for the traditional ocher color), coriander, cumin, black and red pepper, cinnamon, cloves, fennel seeds, cardamom, ginger, and fenugreek. Our favorite brand is Penzeys Sweet Curry Powder, which tasters praised for being neither too sweet nor too hot, and for delivering a balance of sweet and earthy notes.

Roasted Tomato Soup SERVES 4 TO 6 WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS For a creamy - photo 9
Roasted Tomato Soup

SERVES 4 TO 6

Picture 10WHY THIS RECIPE WORKS For a creamy tomato soup thats big on flavor (but not on ingredients) we started by roasting canned whole tomatoes to deepen their flavor and add complexity. Sprinkling them with a tablespoon of brown sugar aided in browning. Next we went to the stove and cooked a chopped onion with a bit of brown sugar until it was caramelized and intensely flavored. Most creamy tomato soup recipes call for heavy cream, but we were looking for more bang for our buck. Boursin cheese, which is flavored with garlic and herbs, was perfect; it gave our pureed soup a creamy, luxurious texture, and a bold aromatic presence as well. Make sure to use canned whole tomatoes that are packed in juice, not puree; you will need some of the juice to make the soup.
