ROASTED BUTTERNUT SQUASH AND SWEET POTATO BISQUE WITH SMOKED APPLEWOOD BACON



Roasted Butternut Squash and Sweet Potato Bisque with Smoked Applewood Bacon image

I tried out for the show 'Master Chef' this past October in New York City. One of my fellow contestants made a pumpkin soup with applewood bacon. He made it to the next round, but sadly I did not. This is my rendition of his soup. I made it my own by using butternut squash and sweet potato and made it richer by turning this into a bisque. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Please share your comments. For less-fat option substitute half-and-half with milk or nonfat half-and-half.

Time 1h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (2 pound) butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cubed
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
8 slices applewood-smoked bacon
1 tablespoon butter
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ cup white wine
1 ½ quarts chicken stock
1 ½ cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine squash, sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; toss to coat. Pour out onto a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, flipping the vegetables once, until slightly caramelized and tender, about 60 minutes.
  • Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until slightly crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Reserve 1 tablespoon bacon drippings. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels; crumble bacon.
  • Heat bacon drippings and butter together in Dutch oven over medium heat. Saute onion and butter in hot butter mixture until onion is translucent, 7 to 10 minutes.

  • Stir roasted squash mixture into onion mixture; add stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until all vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour vegetable mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth. Return pureed soup to Dutch oven.
  • Stir half-and-half into pureed soup; cook and stir over medium-low heat until soup is warmed through, about 5 minutes. Stir nutmeg into soup; season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and top each with crumbled bacon.

This is a great way to use sweet potatoes and other staples you have laying around. Cooking for a Crohn's husband, we're always trying to find ways to cook vegetables down so he can still enjoy them. If necessary, thin with additional milk. Serve hot with a sprinkling of pepitas, if desired.
