Alsace:

(ahl zas) Just across the Rhine River from Germany, this region in northeastern France produces wines that are unique in many ways. They are made with grapes native to Germany; their bottles are graceful and long-necked; they are relatively inexpensive; and their labels carry the names of the grape as well as the place-name. Alsace Riesling is far drier than its German counterpart, although it has a fruity aroma. IT can be enjoyed young, but a good Riesling will age and improve for ten or more years. Alsace Pinot Blanc is a light-bodied wine that can be extremely dry or medium-dry. Tokay Pinot Gris is made from the Pinot Gris grape, known more famously in Italy as Pinot Grigio. In Alsace these wines are rich, spicy, and full-bodied and a good match with spicy meat dishes as well as sweet and sour flavors. In Alsace, the Gewurztraminer grape makes wines that are spicy, intense, low in acidity and high in alcohol.

Apple-Squash Soup

Rated

Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil
1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
4 cups good vegetable broth (or more)
2 cups filtered apple cider or apple juice
2 cups diced acorn or butternut squash, peeled and seeded
1 large potato, peeled and diced (Yukon Gold is nice)
1 firm, tart apple, peeled, cored, and diced
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
Ginger, to taste
Salt, to taste
1/2 cup light cream (optional)
Chopped walnuts
Minced fresh parsley
Dollop of sour or whipped cream
Grated nutmeg

Preparation

In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil and add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté onion and garlic until golden, then add the vegetable broth, apple cider or apple juice, diced squash, potato, and apple. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, until squash, potato, and apple are tender, about 30 minutes.

Add nutmeg, ginger and salt to taste.

Puree in batches in blender, return to pot and gently reheat. You may add 1/2 cup of either light cream or more broth at this stage, thinning soup to the desired consistency. Serve warm, with any or all of the toppings on each serving, if desired.
