  Do-It-Yourself Soused Peach Soup

Ingredients:
1 1/2 lb Peaches, ripe freestone
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 Lemon, juice only
3 Or 4 gratings nutmeg
4 cup Heavy cream or ice cream, melted
Liqueurs and brandies
Cookies
Instructions:
"An incredible dessert invitation to extend to special summer guests
when fresh fruit is at its best and you're feeling a little
extravagant. Who could resist the temptation to "mix your own" when
it comes to fruit puree, heavy cream, and a choice of liqueurs or
brandies?"

To facilitate peeling, place the peaches (or use nectarines) in
boiling water for 1 minute. Using a small, sharp knife slit the skin
and remove. Then pit and quarter the fruit and place it in a small
saucepan with water to cover, sugar, lemon juice, and nutmeg. Simmer
until tender, depending on the ripeness of the fruit, about 10 to 15
minutes. Cool. Puree or pass through a sieve and chill.

Serve in chilled bowls or very large parfait glasses. Pass the
pitcher of cream or melted ice cream, and cookies, and have on the
table a selection of liqueurs and brandies, depending on your taste
and pocketbook. I suggest any combination of the following:

creme de banana, cherry brandy, Amaretto, curacao, bourbon, anisette,
rum, sherry, coffee liqueur, Tuaca.

Also experiment with the softened ice cream; it need not be vanilla,
but should be delicate. The cookies could be any of your favorites,
but simple rich ones like macaroons or butter cookies such as Snowy
Cardamom Crisps are an unequalled match for this soup.
