Apple-Butternut Squash Soup
Adapted from More Than Gourmet
This luxurious tasting, mildly spicy soup has not a drop of cream in it. The secret to its richness is Glace de Canard Gold complemented with unsweetened applesauce. It’s incredibly simple to make. If you have any left over bits of cooked duck, add them to the soup, as well.
