-===== Preparation =====
-  - Preheat the oven to 350°F.

-  - Place one shallot in each of the squash halves.
-  - Brush the surface of all the vegetables with the melted butter, and season liberally with salt and black pepper.
-  - Roast until the squash is beginning to caramelise and collapse (approx. 1 hour).
-  - Remove from oven and set aside. When cool enough to handle, peel the squash, and reserve the flesh, carrots, and shallots.
-  - While the squash is cooling, melt the remaining butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
-  - When the butter begins to foam, add the chopped leeks and stir.
-  - Reduce heat to low and cover, cooking for 10–15 minutes until the leeks have softened and are beginning to caramelize.
-  - Deglaze the pan with 1/2 cup of the chicken stock.
-  - Reduce the heat and add the squash, carrots, shallots, and remaining chicken stock, stirring to combine.
-  - Puree the soup with an immersion blender.
-  - Stir in the cream, cayenne, white pepper, and herbs, and simmer for 15–20 minutes.
-  - Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
