Preparation
Step 1
Soften: Heat oil and butter in a soup pot set over medium heat. Add onion, sage, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring now and then, until onion starts to color, about 15 minutes.
Simmer: Stir in squash and beans. Pour in broth. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook, partially covered, until squash turns tender, about 20 minutes.
Swirl: Scoop out 1 cup soup (squash, beans and all); set aside.* Toss bay leaf. Use an immersion or standard blender to swirl soup smooth.
Serve: Return reserved 1 cup chunky soup to the smooth soup (providing a little texture). Reheat over low. Serve hot.
*For smooth soup blend all together.
