I am making the most of the brilliant butternut squash whilst it is in season and putting it in a soup is always a winner in our house. My littlest is always asking for ‘Butt Nut’ squash soup!

I was contacted by the lovely people from Graham’s, The Family Dairy to create some healthy recipes using their delicious organic, unhomogenised whole milk. Since this is the only kind of cows milk that I like to buy for my family, I was very excited to be able to work with them.
Usually after milk has been pasteurised to kill any germs and bacteria it is homogenised which is a process that breaks down the fat molecules so that the the fat in the milk does not separate. Unhomogenised milk still contains those fat molecules which create that creamy layer at the top. Since clean eating is all about minimally processed foods, it seemed to me that unhomogenised milk was closer to milks natural state and that is why I choose this milk for my family.
I wanted to create a creamy, silky, flavoursome soup pairing sweet butternut squash with robust hearty rosemary. Instead of adding cream to the soup, I finished it with Graham’s gorgeous milk. It’s lighter but still as heartwarming on a cool autumnal day.
You can purchase Graham’s organic unhomogenised whole milk from Waitrose.
