Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  2. 2 Place beef bones on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven until bones are browned and charred in spots, about 40 minutes, turning once halfway through.
  4. 4 Transfer bones to an 8-quart multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Add carrots, onion, garlic, apple cider vinegar, and bay leaves; pour in enough water to cover. Select Sauté function and bring to a boil, uncovered, for about 20 minutes.
  5. 5 Skim the top of liquid to remove any foamy bits and impurities; discard. Add peppercorns, coriander seeds, and cloves. Cancel Sauté function.
  6. 6 Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions and seal the steam release handle; set the timer for 2 hours. Allow 30 minutes for pressure to build.
  7. 7 Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 30 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method, 1 to 2 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  8. 8 Place a large fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth over a large pot or 8-cup liquid measure. Remove and discard bones from broth, then pour into the prepared strainer. Press on solids until all liquid has drained. Discard solids; skim off any fat from surface, if needed, and stir salt into broth.
  9. 9 Divide among glasses and serve hot or let cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes, then store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Instructions

  1. 1 Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
  2. 2 Add butternut squash, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until squash start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
  3. 3 Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
  4. 4 Add cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
  5. 5 Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until squash is tender, about 10 minutes.
  6. 6 Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
  7. 7 Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.
