Sherried Pumpkin Apple Soup

8 servings

This makes a surprisingly light first course, with colors and flavors that complement the meal to follow. It also makes good use of extra pumpkin puree. The soup, adapted from a recipe of unknown origin, may be served chilled or at room temperature.

It can be made 2 days ahead.

2 tablespoons ( 1/4 stick) unsalted butter

2 teaspoons minced garlic

3/4 cup low-sodium chicken stock or turkey stock

1/4 cup sherry

1/4 cup apple cider

1 cup canned pumpkin

1 cup light cream (may substitute low-fat milk)

1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and shredded
