Ingredients

  • 5 pearl onions, chopped
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 TBS chopped garlic
  • 1 leek, white part only, chopped
  • 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 carrot diced

  • 3 quarts (12 cups) chicken broth
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 2 oz. Parmigiano Reggiano, shaved

Preparation

Saute the onions, garlic, and leek in the olive oil for 7 minutes over medium heat, or until the onions begin to brown. Add the carrot, celery heart and the squash; saute for 5 minutes. Pour in the broth, bring to a boil, and cook over medium heat for 45 minutes. Add the salt and pepper.

Remove 2 cups of the broth from the pot; bring to a boil in another saucepan; reduce to 1 cup. Pour the reduced broth back into the soup and puree in a blender. Garnish with the Parmigiano and basil.
