This soup was FANTASTIC! I didn't have fresh ginger on hand either so I used dried. I have to say, the balsamic is an excellent touch.

This soup is awesome! I used only half the curry because I'm not a big curry fan. You must do the balsamic drizzle to really take this soup from ordinary to extraordinary however. With the drizzle and the chives it becomes world-class.

Holy cow, this soup is amazing. I took it to a soup potluck and it was cleaned out quick! I didn't have fresh ginger on hand so just omitted it and it was still great.

Loved this soup; I changed the whipping cream to fat-free half and half and it still was yummy!

Made this just as written, and it was delicious. The pears give it a delicate sweet flavor that works so well with the squash. Definitely a keeper!

Don't buy your groceries from memory I purchased Acorn Squash but it turned out good. Everyone at the pot luck loved it. I used 1/2 the curry and I'll try it next time with butternut!

I followed all ingredients & directions except I left out the curry and used the fat free 1/2 & 1/2 and did not put the balsamic vinegar on. It turned out delicious.
