Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.
[Jim Rohn]

 

Watermelon --it's a good fruit. You eat, you drink, you wash your face.
[ Enrico Caruso]

Fruits are acceptable gifts, because they are the flower of commodities, and admit of fantastic values being attached to them. If a man should send to me to come a hundred miles to visit him, and should set before me a basket of fine summer-fruit, I should think there was some proportion between the labor and the reward.
[ Ralph Waldo Emerson]

Chilled Cranberry Soup

 

Ingredients

12 oz fresh cranberries (1 bag)
3 cup water
1 1/4 cup sugar, approximately
2 cinnamion sticks
2 allspice berries
2 whole cloves
4 black peppercorns
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/4 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup dry red wine, or to taste



 

Preparation

Pick the cranberries over for stems and rinse in cold water. Combine
the 3 cups of water, the sugar and the spices in a large saucepan and
bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and add the cranberries. Gently
simmer the soup for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cranberies are
soft and the liquid is well flavored. If necessary, add additional
sugar to taste.

Mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to make a paste.
Whisk this mixture into the soup and boil for 1 minute. The soup
should thicken slightly. Let the soup cool to room temperature, then
refrigerate until chilled. The recipe can be prepared up to 48 hours
ahead up to this stage.

Just before serving, stir in the heavy cream and wine. The spices can
be left in or removed before serving. Serve the cold cranberry soup
in chilled glass bowls. If you like, you can garnish each bowl with a
dollop of sour cream.

Makes 5 servings.
