Ingredients:

Serving

2 medium carrots, sliced
2 celery ribs with leaves, chopped
2 medium leeks (white portion only), sliced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1/4 cup butter
2 lb butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cubed (about 6 cups)
2 cans (14-1/2 oz each) chicken broth
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/2 cup half-and-half cream
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted

Directions:

In a large saucepan, saute carrots, celery, leeks and jalapeno in butter for 10 minutes. Add the squash, broth and ginger; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer until squash is tender, about 25 minutes.
Cool until lukewarm. In a blender or food processor, puree squash mixture in small batches until smooth; return to pan.
Add cream, salt and pepper; mix well. Heat through but do not boil. Garnish with pecans. Yield: 8 servings (2 quarts).
