Step by Step Method
Step 1
Halve the squash and remove seeds and the fibers. Cut squash into quarters and steam over boiling water until tender (30 minutes).
Step 2
Meanwhile in a pot over low heat melt the butter. Stir in the garlic and cook until softened (10 minutes) -- do not let it turn brown. Stir in broth and wine (or sherry) and bring to a boil and then reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in milk and potato and simmer for 30-45 minutes or unit potato is tender; puree soup (I use an immersion blender). Return mixture to pot.
Step 4
Using a fork scrape the squash into a bowl and separate strands with the fork to create "spaghetti". Add to pot with the cream; season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer until heated through.
