| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Core and quarter the apples, but do not peel. Combine with the cinnamon stick, lemon rind, and ½ cup water.
|
2. Cook in a covered casserole in the microwave oven, stirring occasionally, until very tender (about 15 minutes).
|
3. Put through a food mill or sieve. Add the remaining water. Blend the cornstarch with the ½ cup water. Add to apple mixture.
|
4. Cook, covered, in the microwave oven, stirring occasionally, until thickened and ready to boil (about 17 minutes).
|
5. Stir in the sugar and wine. The soup should be the consistency of heavy cream.
|
6. Put the zwieback crumbs in the bottom of the soup bowl and ladle in the soup. Serve hot, topped with the whipped cream.

|
TIP:
|
|
Apple soup is usually a bit tart, but more sugar can be added to suit your taste. This is a good way to use up slightly over-aged apples.
