Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

So far she has learned that she very much enjoys salted caramel anything, a good soup dumpling is worth a scalded tongue, and there is no room in life for non-fat cheese and crappy chocolate. Also, a barrel of cheese balls never ends well. \r\n\r\nStephanie has been known to choose her company based on how much they can pack it down. Ability to endure cramped quarters, sketchy back alleys, and uncharted paths to seek out that special dish is also a plus in her book. If you fit the criteria, drop a note.

"bio": "Stephanie is a writer and cookbook author recovering from her former tech-startup life. On the side she's also a media consultant, specializing in all forms of digital goodness: audio, video, print, design, and social media.\r\n\r\nAfter leaving the tech world nearly a decade ago, \u003ca title=\"The Culinary Life Comfort Food Blog\" href=\"http://www.theculinarylife.com/\">Stephanie\u003c/a> made a career jump to her lifetime love, writing. She currently writes for the Huffington Post, KQED's Bay Area Bites, NPR, and other select media outlets. Her first cookbook,\u003ca title=\"Melt Macaroni and Cheese Website\" href=\"http://www.meltmacaroni.com/\">Melt: The Art of Macaroni and Cheese\u003c/a>, is due out in fall 2013 on Little, Brown with coauthor Garrett McCord.\r\n\r\nBeing a recovering techy leaves an indelible mark, and everything Stephanie does is infused with her deep fascination with digital technology. She has been blogging since 1999, before blog engines even existed and a great readership consisted of a handful of friends who occasionally thought to check out your site. In 2005 she started her first food blog, which she repurposed in 2007 to become \u003ca title=\"The Culinary Life Newsletter\" href=\"http://www.theculinarylife.com/the-culinary-life-newsletter/\">The Culinary Life\u003c/a>.\r\n\r\nStephanie can be called many things: food writer, essayist, professional recipe developer, cookbook author, social media consultant, videographer, documentary maker, website developer, archivist of life. Despite all of these titles, she most commonly responds to \u003cem>Steph\u003c/em>.",

Waiting for the next round of potato pancakes to come out of the frying pan, they drift over to the big pot of magenta soup at the back of the stove, scoop out a bowlful, dollop on the sour cream, and before I know it, they're at my elbow, demanding to know \"what is in this soup??\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They don't really believe me when I tell them it's nothing but dowdy root vegetables like turnips and parsnips, dill, a little cider vinegar and a whole bunch of beets and cabbage.

Because I usually make my borscht vegetarian, I add a big can of diced tomatoes (Muir Glen's fire-roasted tomatoes are particularly nice) to give body and a bit of acidity to all that root-vegetable sweetness. Water to make up however much liquid is needed, and then, the crucial splash of red-wine or apple-cider vinegar for tartness. A gentle simmer for 45 minutes or so, an adjustment of salt or vinegar, a hefty stir-in of chopped fresh dill, and the borscht is ready. Like every winter soup, it improves with age, and can be made a day or two ahead of time. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My Polish landlord has promised to have me over for borscht sometime this winter.

I haven't yet tried this kind, since it sounds like it needs a freezing-cold, months-long Eastern European winter to properly accompany it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In my Jewish experience, there are two kinds of borscht: the cold kind, made only with beets, that you mix with sour cream to a lurid hot-pinkness and drink from a glass, and the belly-filling winter kind, chock full of cabbage, beets, and root vegetables, served with a dollop of sour cream on top, challah or rye bread on the side. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I generally make mine vegetarian, since I'm usually making borscht for a crowd, but many cooks make theirs with meat, chunks of fatty, tough but flavorful beef cooked on the bone to give body to the broth.

It was August of 1990, and I was fresh out of college and ready to start a life here. I'd never been further west than Minneapolis, never seen fresh lemons dangling over the sidewalk or palm trees flanking a city block. I sat down a stool at\u003ca href=\"http://www.yelp.com/biz/its-tops-coffee-shop-san-francisco\"> It's Tops Coffee Shop\u003c/a> and looked up at the board of daily specials. Avocado omelet! Avocado & Jack cheese burger! BLT with avocado! \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Avocados, at a diner! \u003c/em>I marveled. Where I came from, diners counted parsley as a vegetable. Fruit was cherry Jell-O, piled in cubes and topped with a squirt of cream from a can. \u003cem>The golden West,\u003c/em> I thought. \u003cem>I'm really here!\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As you might expect, there are plenty of avocado recipes (22, in fact, including Coconut-Avocado Ice Cream and Sake-Soy Guacomole) in \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0376027940/kqedorg-20\">The Sunset Cookbook\u003c/a>, a five-pound, 800-page compilation of the best of \u003ca href=\"http://www.sunset.com\">Sunset\u003c/a>. Margo True, the magazine's food editor since 2006, stopped by \u003ca href=\"http://www.omnivorebooks.com\">Omnivore Books\u003c/a> last week to talk about the history of Sunset and the creation of the book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turns out my 21-year-old self was hardly the first to be stunned by the glories of California living. Lured by the promise of everything from gold and orange groves to movie stardom and high-tech promise, newcomers have been flooding westward for decades on end--and since 1898, Sunset magazine has been there to tell them how to live. According to True, it began as a promotional pamphlet for Southern Pacific's luxurious Sunset Limited rail line, which curved like a smile from New Orleans through Texas and Arizona and up to Los Angeles and San Francisco. (Under the same name, the route remains as part of Amtrak's Western service.) \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As one of the largest landowners in the West, Southern Pacific wanted to promote not just Western travel but Western living, hoping to entice restless Midwesterners and Easterners into buying property and putting down new roots. That first issue, a 16-page pamphlet touting the glories of Yosemite and the charms of Los Angeles, is still on file in Sunset's archives. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The magazine later developed into a more serious, stand-alone publication, focusing on economics, politics, and fiction and featuring the writing of Sinclair Lewis, Dashiell Hammett, Jack London, even Herbert Hoover. Bought by an Iowan insurance salesman just before the Depression, it dropped the highbrow essays in favor of gardening, food, travel, and home tips, a format that continues today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The magazine really found its niche during WWII's victory-gardening movement. The federal government had plenty of gardening advice to share with homeowners, but little of it applied to the unique climates and landscapes west of the Continental Divide. So brothers Bill and Mel Lane, sons of the magazine's original owner, started their own Western test garden on a one-acre plot near U.C. Berkeley, sharing their findings with the magazine's growing readership. (Their experiences would lead to the development of Sunset's \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0376039167/kqedorg-20\">Western Garden Book\u003c/a>, now the must-have reference for anyone with a garden from Seattle to Tuscon.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the early fifties, the brothers had a mission to turn the Sunset offices into a laboratory for Western living, a place where everything from party recipes to garden design could be tested and experienced. To that end, they moved the business from downtown San Francisco to a seven-acre spread in Menlo Park, where it remains today. Architect Clifford May, dubbed \"the father of the ranch house,\" built a sprawling, single-level structure that looked more like an inn than an office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>True, who had been working as an editor at \u003ca href=\"http://www.saveur.com\">Saveur\u003c/a> magazine in New York City, still remembers how stunned she was upon arrival for her first interview. Where the Saveur offices were located on a particularly gritty urban block, Sunset's building had floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors that slid open onto courtyards filled with benches and tables and shaded with pergolas twined with flowering vines. Cool terra-cotta tiles flowed seamlessly from indoors to out. A series of test gardens were arranged to mimic the distinct natural landscapes of the West; the desert cacti of the Southwest, the redwoods of the Central California coast, the cloud forests of the Pacific Northwest. (When she related all this to a colleague back in New York, her friend replied dryly, \"Sure makes you miss the methadone clinic on the first floor, doesn't it?\")\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the late 60s and early 70s, when the glamor of the sun-and-surf California lifestyle was at its peak, Sunset \"was like Vogue,\" said True. \"Each issue was 300, 350 pages. It was huge!\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And food, of course, was a big part of both Western living and the magazine itself. Cooking and entertaining meant different flavors, done with a different sort of flair than elsewhere in the country. There was the emphasis on year-round, casual outdoor dining, the everyday influence of Mexican and Asian cuisines. Artichokes, abalone, avocados, dates and citrus fresh from the tree, chile peppers, Alaskan salmon, Dungeness crab--all kinds of things counted as exotic elsewhere in the country were common here. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Sunset garnered a lot of firsts, promoting woks and Chinese cooking in the early 50s, guacamole in the 60s, farmers' markets in the 70s, even publishing the first American recipe for pesto in 1946. The magazine built an outdoor adobe oven (and published a wildly popular how-to), set up beehives and chicken coops, even pit-roasted an entire pig on the company volleyball court (much to the distress of the local fire department). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In planning the cookbook, True and her staff knew they had to create a big, general-interest book that would nonetheless be uniquely Western. The introduction features \"24 Iconic Western Dishes\" that are \"inextricably embedded in Western cooking and eating,\" from date shakes and mai tais to cioppino, pho, crab Louis, barbecued oysters, plank-roasted salmon, tamales, fish tacos, Caesar salad, and California-style pizza. There are instructions for shucking oysters and making dim sum, sushi, and Vietnamese spring rolls at home; guides to craft beers and Asian greens; and short histories of the places and people behind the kitchen staples we take for granted, from the artichoke growers of Castroville and the oyster farmers of Tomales Bay to the pepper growers of New Mexico and the discoverers of the navel orange, Meyer lemon, Hass avocado, and more. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Naturally, there's an extensive section on the wines of California, Oregon, and Washington (with brief mentions of the wine-growing regions of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, and British Columbia), along with detailed recipe-pairing suggestions. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Bay Area readers, it's particularly fun to see our local heroes called out. \u003ca href=\"http://www.delfinasf.com\">Delfina\u003c/a>'s Carbonara Pizza and \u003ca href=\"http://www.pizzetta211.com\">Pizzetta 211\u003c/a>'s Margherita Pizza both make an appearance, as do Elizabeth Falkner's Chocolate Chiffon Cupcakes, \u003ca href=\"http://www.baywolf.com\">Bay Wolf\u003c/a>'s Pinot-braised Duck with Spicy Greens, Bradley Ogden's Soft Overnight Herb Rolls, and the Steamed Halibut on Soft Tofu with Black Bean Sauce from \u003ca href=\"http://www.heavensdog.com\">Heaven's Dog\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just like the original Sunset Limited pamphlet, \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0376027940/kqedorg-20\">The Sunset Cookbook\u003c/a> is an irresistible come-on for the joys of living out here in the land of salads, grilling, and avocado fries (really--see page 275).

Built in 1852, the establishment was originally called the \"Granite Store\", and served as a general store and post office. In 1937, it was renamed \"The Iron Door Saloon\" after the hefty iron doors which had been manufactured in England, brought over by ship, and hauled in on mules across the Tuolumne River. The doors were sold to the saloon as a fire protection device, with the idea that if the town was burning, you could just shut the doors and wait it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0024.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0024.jpg\" alt=\"Cowboy at the Iron Door Saloon\" title=\"Cowboy at the Iron Door Saloon\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18805\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The Iron Door Saloon, where cowboys still reign\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, pass through those very same iron doors, and enter a little slice of California Gold Country history.

I spent a good 10 minutes wondering how they got up there, and then finally asked someone. Apparently, all you need is a quarter, a thumbtack, and a dollar, and you too can become a part of The Iron Door folklore. A few times a year, the staff takes down the dollars and donates the money to community organizations. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second thing you'll notice is the smoky scent of \u003cstrong>cumin\u003c/strong>. The house specialty is \u003cstrong>Cumin-Spiked Sweet Potato Fries\u003c/strong>. Smoky, sweet, hot and crispy, these fries are served in a heaping serving that will satisfy any lover of sweet potato fries.

We checked into the \u003ca href=\"http://www.hotelcharlotte.com/\">Hotel Charlotte\u003c/a>, a quaint bed-and-breakfast (that may or may not be haunted…just sayin'…the jacuzzi tub in the room turned on \u003cem>three\u003c/em> times \u003cem>by itself\u003c/em> in the middle of the night).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/iron-door-montage.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/iron-door-montage.jpg\" alt=\"Iron Door Saloon\" title=\"Iron Door Saloon\" width=\"500\" height=\"432\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18801\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Iron Door Saloon\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bubble bath-loving ghosts aside, one thing the Charlotte had going for it was its proximity to some tasty \u003cstrong>Sweet Potato Fries\u003c/strong> right across the street at the \u003ca href=\"http://www.iron-door-saloon.com/\">Iron Door Saloon\u003c/a>, California's oldest saloon. Built in 1852, the establishment was originally called the \"Granite Store\", and served as a general store and post office. In 1937, it was renamed \"The Iron Door Saloon\" after the hefty iron doors which had been manufactured in England, brought over by ship, and hauled in on mules across the Tuolumne River. The doors were sold to the saloon as a fire protection device, with the idea that if the town was burning, you could just shut the doors and wait it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0024.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0024.jpg\" alt=\"Cowboy at the Iron Door Saloon\" title=\"Cowboy at the Iron Door Saloon\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18805\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The Iron Door Saloon, where cowboys still reign\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, pass through those very same iron doors, and enter a little slice of California Gold Country history. Inside, you'll find a handsome, old-fashioned bar, historic pictures of Yosemite, antique gold mining and farming tools of the Wild West, some stray bullet holes, and a cowboy or two. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first thing you'll notice, though, is the ceiling, positively covered in crumpled dollar bills dangling down. I spent a good 10 minutes wondering how they got up there, and then finally asked someone. Apparently, all you need is a quarter, a thumbtack, and a dollar, and you too can become a part of The Iron Door folklore. A few times a year, the staff takes down the dollars and donates the money to community organizations. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second thing you'll notice is the smoky scent of \u003cstrong>cumin\u003c/strong>. The house specialty is \u003cstrong>Cumin-Spiked Sweet Potato Fries\u003c/strong>. Smoky, sweet, hot and crispy, these fries are served in a heaping serving that will satisfy any lover of sweet potato fries. They were perfect with my order of saucy BBQ chicken wings (I hear the BBQ ribs are also to-die-for, but they're only available in the summer time).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0117.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2010/11/yosemite-0117.jpg\" alt=\"Top of Yosemite Falls\" title=\"Top of Yosemite Falls\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18808\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>The reward\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We headed out early the next morning and made it to Yosemite.

We also turned off to check out \u003cstrong>The Barn\u003c/strong> -- frolicked in their pumpkin patch for a spell and went home with a handsome \u003cstrong>Caramel Apple Pie\u003c/strong>. \u003cem>Note:\u003c/em> for all you apple-pie bakers this Thanksgiving, a generous drizzle of salted caramel is just the thing to bring that pie to a whole 'nother level.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After returning from our little getaway, I was inspired to recreate those addictive \u003cstrong>Sweet Potato Fries\u003c/strong> we had at the \u003cstrong>Iron Door\u003c/strong>.

These are not easy-munching foods. Quinces, cement-hard and astringently tannic in their raw state, need a long slow simmer in a nicely sugared bath to reveal their true mellow deliciousness. Chestnuts are rock-like and double-wrapped, with a glossy shell outside and a clingy, monkey-furred layer inside. You cannot eat them as is; they must be boiled or roasted to release the shell and soften the nut into delectable, sweet crumbly pastiness. And once cooked, you've got to work fast; getting the nut clear is only possible while it's still warm. You will shred the tops of your thumbs and end up with bits of chestnut meat caked under your nails. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, by all means, spend the extra dough and buy them already peeled and jarred or vacuum packed at your favorite gourmet store. Me? Well, I'll be roasting and peeling, because can't resist the seasonal beauty of the nuts in their raw and shiny state, found at this time of year at both farmers' markets and in the supermarket. Also, because it just doesn't feel like the holidays without a sacrifice made to the demanding chestnut gods. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while Thanksgiving at my house demands chestnuts in the stuffing, I do sometimes regret burying all that work in a panful of bready mush.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, housesitting in a gorgeous Victorian complete with formal dining room, I decided to throw an elegant sit-down dinner for 12 for New Year's Eve, a party with complete with champagne and crab hors d'oeuvres in the living room to start, and popovers and chestnut soup as the first course. The inspiration was the Viennese-inspired, velvety-rich chestnut soup served at New York City's Cafe Sabarsky. \u003ca href=\"http://www.wallse.com\">Kurt Gutenbrunner\u003c/a>, the chef at Sabarsky (as well as at its sister restaurants, the elegant Wallse and the bier-und-wurst Blau Gans), takes his soup to an elaborate extreme, making a woodsy mushroom-stock base, dropping in a surprise depth charge of brandy-soaked prunes, and topping the whole with a frothy cloud of steamed milk seasoned with nutmeg and dried porcinis smashed to powder. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But you know, with a multi-course meal, something (or your sanity) has got to give, and so I created a stripped-down version, minus the prunes and porcini, that still managed to capture the essence of a late autumn tramp through the woods. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make it several days ahead of time and heat up at the last minute (always useful when entertaining). It's intriguing without being weird, and elegant without being overly rich or madly expensive to make. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In weight and presentation, it's similar to a lobster bisque, but without the whole squirming-crustacean-dying-at-your-hands issue, which, frankly, is just too much to deal with when you're running out at the last minute for more butter, trying to find the guest towels and wondering whether you need to iron the napkins.\u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Chestnut Soup\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serves:\u003c/strong> 6, as a first course\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n25-30 fresh whole chestnuts, or 1 cup peeled chestnuts\u003cbr>\n3 tbsp butter, divided\u003cbr>\n2 shallots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n2 carrots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n1 parsnip, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\nSalt and pepper, to taste\u003cbr>\n1 tbsp maple syrup\u003cbr>\n1 branch thyme, a bay leaf, and 4 or 5 sprigs of parsley, tied together\u003cbr>\n4 or 5 sprigs of parsley, minced\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup dry sherry or Madeira\u003cbr>\n3 cups chicken broth\u003cbr>\n½ cup heavy cream or half-and-half\u003cbr>\n3 tbsp crème fraiche\u003cbr>\nFreshly grated nutmeg\u003cbr>\n4 or 5 crimini mushroom caps, sliced, or 6 whole black trumpet mushrooms, halved lengthwise\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1. To prepare whole chestnuts, cut a shallow \"x\" in the rounded side of each chestnut with a sharp knife. Roast at 325F until the meat is tender and the skin dries out and curls back. Peel chestnuts while still warm, otherwise skin will stick to the nut. Discard any discolored or wormy nuts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a saucepan. Saute shallots, carrot, and parsnip, stirring, until tender but not browned, approximately 5 minutes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3, Add chestnuts. Sprinkle in a few pinches of salt and maple syrup, and cook, stirring, until chestnuts are golden-spotted and lightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sherry, and cook, stirring, over low heat for another 2 to 3 minutes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Add herbs and chicken broth, and simmer gently for 20-25 minutes, partially covered. Remove herb bundle. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Let cool for a few minutes, add cream, then puree in a blender. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or sherry as needed. For extra smoothness, crank through the fine disc of a food mill or pass through a fine-mesh strainer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Melt remaining tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat. Add mushrooms and cook until lightly browned on one side. Using a spatula, turn mushrooms over and brown remaining side. Remove from heat and set aside. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Return soup to the pan and warm gently. To serve, top with a spoonful of crème fraiche and a few slices of mushroom. Grate a little fresh nutmeg over crème fraiche. \u003c/p>\n\n",

The inspiration was the Viennese-inspired, velvety-rich chestnut soup served at New York City's Cafe Sabarsky. \u003ca href=\"http://www.wallse.com\">Kurt Gutenbrunner\u003c/a>, the chef at Sabarsky (as well as at its sister restaurants, the elegant Wallse and the bier-und-wurst Blau Gans), takes his soup to an elaborate extreme, making a woodsy mushroom-stock base, dropping in a surprise depth charge of brandy-soaked prunes, and topping the whole with a frothy cloud of steamed milk seasoned with nutmeg and dried porcinis smashed to powder. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But you know, with a multi-course meal, something (or your sanity) has got to give, and so I created a stripped-down version, minus the prunes and porcini, that still managed to capture the essence of a late autumn tramp through the woods. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can make it several days ahead of time and heat up at the last minute (always useful when entertaining). It's intriguing without being weird, and elegant without being overly rich or madly expensive to make. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In weight and presentation, it's similar to a lobster bisque, but without the whole squirming-crustacean-dying-at-your-hands issue, which, frankly, is just too much to deal with when you're running out at the last minute for more butter, trying to find the guest towels and wondering whether you need to iron the napkins.\u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Chestnut Soup\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Serves:\u003c/strong> 6, as a first course\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n25-30 fresh whole chestnuts, or 1 cup peeled chestnuts\u003cbr>\n3 tbsp butter, divided\u003cbr>\n2 shallots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n2 carrots, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\n1 parsnip, peeled and diced\u003cbr>\nSalt and pepper, to taste\u003cbr>\n1 tbsp maple syrup\u003cbr>\n1 branch thyme, a bay leaf, and 4 or 5 sprigs of parsley, tied together\u003cbr>\n4 or 5 sprigs of parsley, minced\u003cbr>\n1/2 cup dry sherry or Madeira\u003cbr>\n3 cups chicken broth\u003cbr>\n½ cup heavy cream or half-and-half\u003cbr>\n3 tbsp crème fraiche\u003cbr>\nFreshly grated nutmeg\u003cbr>\n4 or 5 crimini mushroom caps, sliced, or 6 whole black trumpet mushrooms, halved lengthwise\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n1. To prepare whole chestnuts, cut a shallow \"x\" in the rounded side of each chestnut with a sharp knife. Roast at 325F until the meat is tender and the skin dries out and curls back. Peel chestnuts while still warm, otherwise skin will stick to the nut. Discard any discolored or wormy nuts. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a saucepan. Saute shallots, carrot, and parsnip, stirring, until tender but not browned, approximately 5 minutes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3, Add chestnuts. Sprinkle in a few pinches of salt and maple syrup, and cook, stirring, until chestnuts are golden-spotted and lightly caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sherry, and cook, stirring, over low heat for another 2 to 3 minutes. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Add herbs and chicken broth, and simmer gently for 20-25 minutes, partially covered. Remove herb bundle. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Let cool for a few minutes, add cream, then puree in a blender. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or sherry as needed. For extra smoothness, crank through the fine disc of a food mill or pass through a fine-mesh strainer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Melt remaining tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat. Add mushrooms and cook until lightly browned on one side. Using a spatula, turn mushrooms over and brown remaining side. Remove from heat and set aside. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Return soup to the pan and warm gently. To serve, top with a spoonful of crème fraiche and a few slices of mushroom. Grate a little fresh nutmeg over crème fraiche. \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
