This is a velvety soup with just a hint of kick. It makes an excellent winter side dish but is a little light to be the center of a meal.

    Cut squash in half and remove seeds. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin. Cut squash into chunks.

    Remove the outer skin from the onion and cut into chunks. Peel garlic. You can leave it whole but I prefer to use a garlic press.
  • 3
    Add squash, onions, garlic, dill, and chicken broth to pressure cooker. Cook on high pressure for 15 minutes.

    Allow the squash mixture to cool slightly. Add it and remaining ingredient into you blender and blend until smooth.
