Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute apple cider (alcohol free) for apple juice.

    Too sweet while at the same time kind of lacking in flavor. A rare miss for me with Ina. My favorite squash and apple soup from Lukas Volger has almost the same ingredients but has so much more flavor (and better texture).

    2/3 recipe still made a lot. Penzey's mild curry powder worked well here. I pureed it in the food processor. The amount of liquid seemed insufficient, but was actually enough. However, the apple juice made the soup way too sweet. Next time I'd use at most 1/2 the apple juice and add water or broth for the rest of the liquid. This would have been great if it hadn't been so sweet.
