Hungarian Apple Soup

:  September/October 2007

Your rating: None Average: 3.8 (31 votes)

This savory apple soup for two gets body from Yukon Gold potatoes and a touch of heat from paprika. Float some cocktail shrimp or a mound of lump crabmeat in each bowl to make it a main course.


READER'S COMMENT:
"WOW!!! This was really good. I thought the combo was a bit unusual, but, decided to try it anyway. Used a Gala apple and left the skin on it and the potato. Blended up nicely. Try it, the soup is really good and creamy. "

Preparation

  1. Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add apple, potato, onion and celery; cook, stirring often, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in salt, sage, paprika and pepper; cook for 30 seconds. Pour in broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat, cover, and gently simmer until the potato is tender when pierced with a fork, 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. Transfer the soup to a large blender or food processor, add sour cream and process until smooth. (Use caution when pureeing hot liquids.) Garnish with celery leaves, if desired.
