Set aside to cool.
When the squash is completely cool, scoop the flesh from the skin. While

saucepan, over moderately low heat, for 5 minutes or until the onion is
softened, Add the broth and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, covered. Add
the squash pulp to the sauce pan.
Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor, in batches, and puree

moderate heat until it is hot.
Garnish each portion with the heaping teaspoon of low-fat sour cream.
