Melt butter with oil in large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions, parsley, and sage; saute until onions are softened, about 5 minutes.

Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until squash is very soft, about 25 minutes. Cool slightly.

Working in batches, puree soup in blender, allowing some texture to remain. Return soup to pot. Thin with stock, if desired. Season with pepper and more salt, if desired. DO AHEAD:
