Butternut Squash and Sage Wontons
TOTAL TIME: 1 HR 15 MIN
SERVINGS: 24
INGREDIENTS
●4 large garlic cloves, unpeeled
●2 sage leaves—1 whole, 1 minced
●2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
●1/4 cup walnuts
●3/4 pound butternut squash—peeled, seeded and cut into 1-inch
cubes
●1 medium shallot, minced
●Salt and freshly ground pepper
●24 wonton wrappers
●1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
INSTRUCTIONS
1.Preheat the oven to 400°. Arrange the garlic cloves and the whole sage
leaf on a piece of foil and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Wrap
up the garlic in the foil and roast for about 40 minutes, until the cloves
are very soft. Let cool, then peel the garlic.
2.Meanwhile, spread the walnuts in a pie plate and toast for about 5
minutes, until golden brown. Let the walnuts cool, then coarsely chop
them.
3.In a medium saucepan, cover the squash with water. Bring to a boil and
simmer over moderate heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well
and transfer to a bowl. Add the roasted garlic and the sage leaf to the
squash and mash with a fork.
4.In a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add the
shallot and minced sage and cook over moderate heat until the shallot
is softened, 3 minutes. Mix the shallot and sage into the mashed squash
and season with salt and pepper. Wipe out the skillet.
5.Working with 4 wonton wrappers at a time, mound a rounded teaspoon
of squash filling in the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the
wrappers with water and fold each one into a triangle, pressing the
edges to seal. Bring the pointed edges together and press to seal.
Transfer the stuffed wontons to a baking sheet and cover them with
plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining wonton wrappers and filling.
6.Oil a steamer basket and set it over simmering water. Arrange half of
the wontons in the basket, cover and steam for 5 minutes. Transfer the
steamed wontons to a large plate. Repeat with the remaining wontons.
7.Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil until shimmering. Add the
wontons and cook over moderate heat, turning once, until lightly
browned and crisp, 2 minutes per side. Transfer the wontons to a
platter, sprinkle with the toasted walnuts and cheese and serve.
MAKE AHEAD
The steamed wontons can be refrigerated for up to 2 days. Bring to room
temperature before sautéing.

Cook time: 25 mins
Total time: 40 mins
Serves: 48 ounces
Light and creamy, vegan butternut squash soup. This simple butternut bisque is seasoned with Thai
red curry paste and swirled with coconut milk. Recipe yields about 6 cups (48 ounces) soup.
INGREDIENTS
● 2 tablespoons coconut oil or olive oil
● 2 pound butternut or kabocha squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into small ½-inch pieces
(about 3 cups)
● 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
● 4 garlic cloves, pressed or chopped
● 2 to 3 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
● 2 teaspoons ground coriander
● 1 teaspoon ground cumin
● ¼ teaspoon sea salt
● ⅛ teaspoon red pepper flakes (up to ¼ teaspoon for spicier soup)
● 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
● 4 cups (32 ounces) vegetable broth
● ½ cup full fat coconut milk for drizzling on top
● ½ cup large, unsweetened coconut flakes
● Handful fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
INSTRUCTIONS- Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Once the oil is
shimmering, add squash, onion, garlic, curry paste, coriander, cumin, salt and red pepper
flakes to skillet. Stir to combine. - Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add broth.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until squash is soft, about 15 to
20 minutes. - While the soup is cooking, toast the coconut flakes in a medium skillet over medium-low
heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant and golden on the edges. Keep an eye on them so
they don’t burn. Transfer coconut flakes to a bowl to cool. - Once the squash mixture is done cooking, taste and add a little more Thai red curry paste
if it’s not quite flavorful enough for you. Remove the soup from heat and let it cool
slightly. Working in batches, transfer the contents pan to a blender (do not fill your
blender past the maximum fill line!). Securely fasten the lid and use a kitchen towel to
protect your hand from steam escaping from the top of the blender as you purée the
mixture until smooth. Transfer puréed soup to a serving bowl and repeat with remaining
batches. - Stir the lime juice into the blended soup. Taste and season with additional salt if
necessary. Ladle soup into individual bowls. Use a spoon to drizzle coconut milk over each
bowl, then lightly swirl the spoon through the topmost layer for a pretty design. Top the
soup with toasted coconut flakes and a sprinkle of chopped fresh cilantro.

Email Grocery List

Step 1
For the cake: heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line with parchment paper. In a large saucepan, combine Guinness and butter. Place over medium-low heat until butter melts, then remove from heat. Add cocoa and superfine sugar, and whisk to blend.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine sour cream, eggs and vanilla; mix well. Add to Guinness mixture. Add flour and baking soda, and whisk again until smooth. Pour into buttered pan, and bake until risen and firm, 45 minutes to one hour. Place pan on a wire rack and cool completely in pan.

Step 4
Remove cake from pan and place on a platter or cake stand. Ice top of cake only, so that it resembles a frothy pint of Guinness.Edit: The last 3 times we made this, we used the vanilla toffee stout pictured below. Even better than regular Guinness.
