Honeycrisp Apple And Parsnip Soup Recipes

Steps:

• In a soup pot or Dutch oven, sauté onions in butter over medium heat until translucent, and then add wine. Allow the mixture to reduce until most of the liquid has evaporated, and then add parsnip, apple, potato and sage to the mixture.
• Cover and cook for about 10 minutes, or until vegetables have softened and have taken on a slight color. Add the stock and reduce heat to medium-low. Bring the stock up to temperature. Slowly add the half-and-half to the warm mixture. Do not allow soup to boil after adding the half-and-half as it could curdle.
• Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture smooth. Add enough stock or water to achieve the consistency you desire up to another full cup. Garnish with sliced green onion.

Steps:

• To make the broth: heat the olive oil very slowly in a large pot. Add the onion, carrots, celery and leeks and sauté until the onions are transparent.
• Add 10 cups of water along with the bay leaves, thyme and tomatoes. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat, half covered, for 45 minutes. During the last few minutes of cooking, add the parsley and chervil, and season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Put everything through a sieve and set the broth aside.
• For the soup: put the parsnips and the lemon juice in a large bowl. Cover with water and let sit until you are ready to make the soup. Drain and dry the parsnips.
• Heat the olive oil and the butter in a heavy soup pot. Add the shallots, parsnips and apples and sauté for about 10 minutes, or until the onions are clear but not golden. Add the cider and cook uncovered for 5 minutes. Then add the broth, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer slowly for 40 minutes. Add salt, white pepper and nutmeg.
• Purée the soup in a blender or food processor, and, if you want more acidity, add the cider vinegar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Spread parsnips and apples out onto prepared baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over the top and sprinkle with kosher salt. Toss to coat.
• Roast in preheated oven until parsnips and apples are tender and caramelized around the edges, about 30 minutes.
• Stir apple-parsnip mixture, chicken broth, and potato together in a large pot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Puree apple mixture with an immersion blender until soup is smooth. Stir cream into soup and season with cayenne pepper and salt; cook until heated through, 2 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Melt the butter, add the parsnips, apples, onions and sugar.
• Sauté till soft.
• Add the curry powder, spices and garlic and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring well.
• Pour in the stock slowly, stirring until well mixed.
• Cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes, until the parsnips are tender.
• Taste for seasoning.
• Blend with a hand blender and add as much cream to thin to the consistency you like and reheat, do not boil.
• Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add apples, parsnips, onion and coriander and sauté until slightly softened, about 12 minutes. Add 4 cups broth and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until apples and parsnips are tender, about 40 minutes.
• Puree soup in blender in batches. Return puree to saucepan. Thin with more broth if desired. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm over medium heat before continuing.) Season soup with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls. Sprinkle with parsley; garnish with apple slices if desired and serve.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Cook, covered, until parsnips are tender, 3 hours. If desired, top with additional minced rosemary and cracked pepper.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large Dutch oven or stock pot over medium-high heat. Add apples, parsnips, onion, and coriander and saute lightly until slightly softened, about 12 minutes.
• Add the 3 cups stock and 1 cup milk and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until apples and parsnips are tender--about 40 minutes.
• Remove soup from heat and puree in the pot with an immersible blender, or, puree soup in a blender in small batches. Return soup to pot.
• Return soup pot to medium-low heat. Add brown sugar, salt, and pepper, stir well to dissolve sugar, and reheat to eating temperature. Serve with cheese crumbles on top. Bleu cheese, roquefort, gorgonzola and fontina cheeses all taste delicious paired with this soup. Crack a bit more black pepper on each bowlful before eating.
• NOTE: This soup keeps well. You can make it a day ahead and store in a covered crockpot crock in the refrigerator. Reheat later in the crockpot for serving.

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add apples and cook until golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer 2/3 of apples to small bowl; set aside for garnish. Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to apples in pot. Add onions and carrot; sauté until onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add parsnips, broth, and water. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly. Puree soup in 3 batches in blender until smooth. Return soup to pot. Stir in half and half and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover soup and apples separately and refrigerate. Bring soup to simmer before using.)
• Rewarm reserved apples in small skillet over medium heat. Divide soup among 10 to 12 bowls. Top with apples.
