Creamy Kabocha Soup

Watch how to make it here

This kabocha soup is a creamy soup with a sweet flavor and vibrant orange color. It is a cozy and warm meal that is perfect for a cold fall evening.

Notes:

  1. Kabocha can be substituted with pumpkin. I recipe-tested both squashes separately and it works well either way.
  2. The chayote was added to this recipe for sweetness.
  3. Yukon gold potato is used to thicken the soup.
  4. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 2 minutes before serving.
