Tips for a more luxurious sweet potato soup

Sautéing your onions in pure butter until they are golden is a good way to create depth of flavour. And before you serve your soup, you can boost its glam factor by topping it with a swirl of sour cream and a sprinkling of toasted pumpkin or sunflower seeds.
