2. Add 50 ml of water, and cover loosely with plastic wrap.
3. Microwave for 10 minutes at 700 W. When the kabocha squash is tender, leave for about 20 minutes to cool down.

9. Return the contents of the food processor to the pan.
10. Add the remaining kabocha squash, and add the milk a little at a time, stirring constantly and heating.
11. When the soup has reached the consistency you like, season with salt and pepper.
12. Chill well in the refrigerator.
13. Serve topped with cream or parsley.
14. Addition: Some kabocha squash may be a bit dry.
15. If the kabocha squash doesn't blend well with the milk, pass it through a fine meshed sieve first.
16. Return the kabocha squash stuck on the sieve to the pan, and simmer while adding some cream to make it smooth.
