Kabocha Squash Soup
Report
Rich, flavorful, and velvety smooth, Kabocha Soup (かぼちゃスープ) is a modern favorite in Japan that's often eaten for breakfast along with some toasted bread. In this easy Japanese Pumpkin Soup recipe, I have a few tricks to maximize the flavor while minimizing the effort.

- 700 grams kabocha ¼ large pumpkin, peeled and sliced
- 5 cups vegetable stock

Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large pot and saute the onions and carrots until they're tender and just starting to brown (about 5 minutes).

- Add the vegetable stock and cover the pot with a lid. Lower the heat and simmer the pumpkin soup until the Kabocha is tender (about 10-15 minutes).
