Roasting the butternut squash whole, then scooping out the flesh, eliminates the need for difficult peeling. For a richer flavor, consider using vegetable stock instead of chicken stock. Garnish with a swirl of cream, toasted pumpkin seeds, or a sprinkle of blue cheese for an elevated presentation.
