Add garlic and ginger and sauté for 1 minute. Add squash and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes or until squash is tender.
Process the squash mixture in a blender or food processor in batches until smooth. Return the squash mixture to the Dutch oven. Stir in the milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
