Apple-Cheese Soup

Recipe By : Dean Fearing, Chef at Turtle Creek (1989)
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :1:10
Categories : Soup Chowder

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
*bouquet garni:
1 tablespoon white peppercorns
3 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
(tied together in cheesecloth)
1/4 cup peanut oil
3 ounces ham scraps — and/or 1 ham bone
1 stalk celery — diced
2 cloves garlic — minced
2 onions — diced
8 tart apples — peel, core and
quarter
(Granny Smith)
1 cup white port
6 cups chicken broth
4 slices bacon — for garnish
(apple- or hickory-smoked)
1 small red apple — for garnish
(such Red Delicious)
1 small tart green apple — for garnish
(as Granny Smith)
1 lemon — juiced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter — softened
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 pounds sharp Cheddar cheese — grated
Salt — to taste
Tabasco — to taste

Cold weather soup, diced apples and cheese make it colorful. Easily made
without the ham or bacon. Use vegetable broth instead of the chicken stock.

To make the soup, in a medium-sized saucepan heat the oil over medium-high
heat. Add the ham scraps, if using, the celery, garlic, and onions and saute
for about 4 minutes, or until the onions are translucent but not brown.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the quartered apples. Cover and cook,
stirring frequently, for abour 10 minutes or until the apples soften. Add the
port and simmer for 5 minutes more. Add the chicken stock, bouquet garni, and
ham bone, if using. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, partially covered, for
about 20 minutes, or until the flavors are well blended. Remove the bouquet
garni.

(The soup may be made a day or two in advance, up to this point. Cool and
refrigerate. See detail ‘A’.)

Meanwhile in a small skillet, fry the bacon over medium heat for about 5
minutes, or until browned and crisp. Drain on paper towels. Cut into l inch
dice and set aside.

Leaving the skin on, cut the green and red apples into 1/8-inch dice to use
for garnish. You will need about 2 tablespoons of each color. Put the diced
apples in a small glass or ceramic bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the
lemon juice. Set aside.

In a small bowl, knead the softened butter and flour together until smooth to
make a beurre manie’. Whisk the mixture into the soup to thicken it. Cook for
5 minutes longer, stirring frequently.

Add the grated cheese to the soup, stirring constantly, until it is melted.

Strain the soup through a fine sieve into the top of double boiler set over
gently boiling water to keep the soup hot. (Do not press too hard on the
solids.) season with the remaining lemon juice and salt and Tabasco to taste.
Ladle the soup into warm serving bowls and garnish with the diced apples and
chopped bacon. Serve hot.

Detail ‘A’ continued: Add the Beurre manie and then the cheese and
seasonings, when you reheat the soup for serving. Do not prepare the apple and
bacon garnish until a few hours before serving. This soup can be completed up
to 2 hours before serving, but keep it warm in the top half of a double boiler
set over hot water. Do not simmer over direct heat after the cheese has been
added or the soup will separate.

Gnocchi Di Susine

Recipe By : Molto Mario MB1D10
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : New Text Import

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
Basic gnocchi dough:
3 Pounds russet potatoes
2 Cups all-purpose flour
1 egg, extra large
1 Pinch salt
Filling:
5 plums, smallest possible — quartered
1/2 Cup sugar
Sauce:
4 Tablespoons butter
1/4 Cup fresh bread crumbs
1/2 Teaspoon cinnamon

Boil the whole potatoes until they are soft (about 45 minutes). While still
warm, peel and pass through vegetable mill onto clean pasta board.

Make well in center of potatoes and sprinkle all over with flour, using all
the flour. Place egg and salt in center of well and using a fork, stir into
flour and potatoes, just like making normal pasta. Once egg is mixed in,
bring dough together, kneading gently until a ball is formed. Knead gently
another 4 minutes until ball is dry to touch.

To make Gnocchi di Susine:

Bring 6 quarts water to boil and add 2 tablespoons of salt.

Pinch off walnut-sized balls of gnocchi dough and roll with rolling pin to
form 2-1/2 inch circle of dough. Place one quarter of plum and a 1/2
teaspoon sugar on each and fold dough around plum pieces to form a package
with no tears or rips, relatively smooth and evenly coated. Continue until
all are finished. If making pasta ahead cook and the shock in cold water.

Place gnocchi in water, 10 at a time, and carefully stir to prevent
sticking to sides or bottom of pan. Allow to float and continue cooking for
2 minutes. Meanwhile, melt butter in a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat.
Add bread crumbs and then add cooked gnocchi and toss gently to coat. Serve
on a plate and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Yield: 4 servings
