Perfect Blend recipe


Kabocha Squash Soup with Toasted Cumin and Chiles

The Japanese kabocha squash is squat and round, and has nubby, dark green skin and dense, sweet flesh. Use a large, heavy chef’s knife to cut the squash into big chunks. Because the skin is too thick and brittle to peel, the squash is cooked and then the flesh is scooped from the skin. Pureed with coconut milk, it makes a rich, golden soup. Balance the richness with a generous addition of fresh lime juice, slivered chiles, and a shower of finely chopped cilantro.
