Step 1

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cut a kabocha (or small pumpkin) into chunks & using a spoon, scoop/scrape away the stringy, seedy bits

Step 2

Place the kabocha pieces on a baking sheet lined with foil. Brush the pieces with oil & sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper. Bake for 30 mins until tender.

Step 3

Remove from oven & let cool until touchable. Cut the orange part away from the green skin (even though the skin tastes fine & is perfectly edible, it will turn your soup green if left attached).

Step 4

Turn the oven to 350°F. Put the carrot & celery pieces on the same foil-lined tray that the kabocha was on (and is no longer. Or just get a fresh foil-lined tray). Rub the carrots & celery with oil & lightly sprinkle with salt & pepper. Bake for about 15-20 mins or until the pieces are tender. Remove from the oven & set aside.

Step 5

n a large pot over medium heat melt the butter & add the bacon pieces & diced onion. Cook until the bacon is no longer pink & the onion is tender.

Step 6

Stir in the sage, salt, & nutmeg. Add the chicken (or veggie) broth & heat through on a simmer.

Step 7

Next, generously pack a 1 cup measure twice (2 cups total) with soft kabocha pieces & then add them to the broth. Let simmer for several minutes.

Step 8

Using an immersion blender or transferring the contents of the pot to a standing blender, blend until no chunks of anything remain & the kabocha & broth are fully incorporated. Scoop off any resulting foam from the surface of the soup. Heat the soup for a few more minutes if it has cooled at all (return it to the pot if you put it in a blender).

Step 9

Using a fine mesh strainer strain the soup into a large pitcher, stirring the strainer contents with a spoon to get the soup through, leaving the pulp behind (dispose of the pulp).

Step 10

Stir the carrot & celery pieces into the strained soup. Pour the finished soup into individual serving bowls & serve hot for the full restorative effect,
