BUTTERNUT SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, sage and 2 teaspoons salt and season with pepper.

• When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.
