Melt butter in pan, add onions and cook until translucent. Add steamed squash. Let it cook in the pan for 1-2 minutes before you add other liquid.
Add 1 cup cream or two cups of Half & Half. Add ginger, nutmeg and sage. Add chicken broth.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Let simmer for approx. 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Puree in blender. Return to pan. Allow to cook for 5-10 minutes more.
