Ingredients

1 large delicata squash or butternut squash cut in half lengthwise, seeded and cut into ½ inch slices

3 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin

salt and freshly ground pepper

2 leeks cut in half lengthwise, rinsed well and thinly sliced

2 large cloves garlic minced

1 ½ cups einkorn berries

½ cup dry white wine

3-4 cups chicken or vegetable broth warmed

¼ cup heavy cream

¼-½ cup parmigiano reggiano grated

parsley chopped

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. 

  2. Toss the squash on a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Roast until tender and lightly browned, about 20-25 minutes.

  3. At the same time, heat the remaining olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.

  4. Add the leeks and garlic and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.

  5. Add the einkorn and cook until grains start to crackle, about 2-3 minutes.

  6. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half.

  7. Add 3 cups of the broth and simmer, stirring occasionally, until einkorn is tender about 25-30 minutes. Add more stock if needed.

  8. Stir in the cream, squash and Parmigiano Reggiano and season with salt and pepper. Cook 3-4 minutes longer to incorporate the squash, sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
