½ cup onion, roughly cut

1 tbsp ginger

¼ tsp ground sage

Select [Sauté] to pre-heat the pressure cooker. When the word “Hot” appears on the display, add the onions and sauté until they are soft.

Add ginger, nutmeg, sage, cinnamon, turmeric, salt, and pepper and mix thoroughly. Push onions aside and mix in squash cubes. Add the stock and scrape any crusted spices from the bottom of the pot into the liquid mixture.

Close and lock the lid of the Instant Pot. Select [Pressure Cook] or [Manual] and then use the [+] or [-] buttons to set 10 minutes of pressure cooking time.

When time is up, open the lid using Quick Release. With an immersion blender, purée the contents of the pressure cooker. Divide soup among four containers and refrigerate or freeze.
