  2. Add the garlic, ginger, and spices and cook, stirring frequently, until very fragrant, 60-90 seconds.  Add the wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until alcohol cooks off.
  3. Add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the squash is very tender.

Taste for seasoning, and adjust as needed.  Garnish with Pepitas and light splatter of Aleppo oil if so desired.
