Beau's notes: * One evening when, good ecumenist that I then was, I visited the Hillel Student Center (the occasion of my visit escapes me), someone had prepared a special Israeli concoction of apples in wine.
-
Exactly how it was made, I did not quite figure out and I never asked, but I liked it and could tell that the person responsible had essentially somehow cooked or otherwise prepared apples in wine, very likely the sticky-sweet wine often used for Jewish ritual purposes.
-
(If any Israeli, on reading this, accuses me of having maligned his or her national cuisine, I apologize deeply.
-
However, I doubt this will be considered defamatory, only calorific.
-
And perhaps, if the Israelis had nothing to do with this, they should wish they had.
-
At least they inspired some shaygetz to come up with what follows.) ~D.C.B.
-
This is good by itself (for one) or served as a topping for vanilla ice
-
cream (two could eat it and be happy, but I could covet the whole thing)
