A question about a recipe: Butternut Squash and Cider Soup: 1993

I'd defer o Amanda, but just to consider - the recipe calls for 3 cups of cubed squash. If you're going to roast a whole squash you want to make sure you have an equivalent amount of squash.

I'd roast a small to medium squash -- and in step 2 where you simmer it for 20 minutes, you won't need to cook it for this long, since the squash is already cooked. More like 5 minutes.
