This was really tricky for me because apple and pumpkin are as 14 or 15 years old, trainees Rating: 4/5 both such strong contenders. You could argue that pumpkin takes the cake (or in this case, pie) here spent anywhere from four to because apples are eaten year-round and pumpkin really only shows up from September to Decem- ber. Plus, who doesn’t enjoy pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie, pumpkin lattes and all manner of other pumpkin-flavored concoctions that food companies think up? Still, I think I’m going to have to go apple on this one. There is nothing that defines fall for me like a glass of fresh apple cider. I may be biased from living near a cider mill, but that stuff is outstanding. There’s also warm apple pie with ice cream, apple fritters, caramel apples and who could forget about apple crisp? Plus, when you eat pumpkin flavored foods, it feels like dessert. When you eat something with apples in it, you can convince yourself you’re being healthy. (It’s fruit! Fruit has vitamins and stuff, right?)

As a Connecticut boy, I may be a bit biased, but very few places can compete with the scenic fall landscape of the Northeast. While my fellow writers have offered their two cents on the pumpkin versus apple debate, I am here to say that pumpkin is by far the superior of the two fall staples. Before getting into it, I want the record to show that I eat an apple every single day of the year without fail (I realize I take the “apple a day” saying way too literally), so I hold no ill will toward apples of any kind in any form. That being said, pumpkins should take center stage this season because they are the ultimate food. I mean, there are very few fruits or vegetables that you can do so much with. The walls of the pumpkin can be made into pies, breads, muffins and pancakes; the seeds can be roasted and turned into trail mix and pump- kins can be carved into Jack-o-Lanterns to light up the night on October 31. Let’s be honest, would Halloween be Halloween if we all started carving scary faces into apples? PHOTO BY MNS2 Thursday, October 15, 2020 • DailyCampus.com 07 Life

PHOTO BY KITCHN Gluhwein be mine! I don’t know about you guys, but I am freezing. It’s been 40 degrees at night lately. Horrendous! And although alcohol can warm you up — in a mentally comforting, but not physically helpful way — it’s not what people crave around now. In cold weather like this, you need tea or coffee or hot chocolate. You don’t want iced cocktails. But luckily for the world, hot alcohol exists! And one absolutely delightful form of it is mulled wine. Or as they say in Austria, where I first tried it: gluhwein.

Gluhwein is a hot, spiced wine, usually served in a mug. When you first receive a mug of it, you’re immediately hit by the warmth emanating from the cup in a way that seems alien. In general, most alcohol you consume is going to be either cold or grossly room temperature. It’s almost, but not quite, discomfiting to be consuming a hot wine. And yet, it’s somehow pleasant. Next, you’ll probably notice the smell. Gluhwein is made up of spices like cloves, cinnamon and star anise. The combination is hearty and comforting to the senses in the same way fresh-baked gingerbread is around the holidays.

When you finally take your first sip, you may feel like you’re choking on wine steam. It is a very specific and oddly rewarding sensation that I highly recommend. But once you get past that, and take your first mouthful: pure warmth and delight. And while the flavor is incredible from the start, it will only build and flourish as you finish your mug and go for seconds and then thirds. There is something comforting about getting intoxicated on gluhwein versus a regular temperature cocktail that makes you feel strangely nostalgic — regardless of whether you’ve ever drank it before.

Over quarantine, I made Lily Kelting’s “German Gluhwein” recipe from kitchn. The recipe calls for half of a medium orange, three-fourths of a cup of water, one-fourth of a cup of sugar, 20 whole cloves, two cinnamon sticks, two whole star anise, a bottle of dry red wine and an optional addition of rum or amaretto. To make it, you simply zest and juice the orange and combine it with the spices. Then you make a simple syrup and add the mixture from the last step in. After about a minute of simmering, you should have a wonderful-smelling syrup in your pan. And finally, you add in the red wine and simmer on low for anywhere between 20 minutes and a few hours. Just be careful not to let it reach a full simmer, or else the alcohol will cook off. All that’s left to do once it’s done is to strain it into a couple of mugs and enjoy!

If you’re sick of same-old-same-old chilled al- coholic beverages, it’s time to get out of your comfort zone and simmer up some gluhwein. It’s more sea- sonal and you’ll soon find it’s exactly what you need to make it through this freezing cold semester.

by Hollianne Lao LIFEl EDITORie [email protected] at Rich with culture and history, Hispanic and Latinx heritage has rootss all over the country. National Hispanic Heritage Month is celebrated from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15 to recognizeH the contributions and influence of Hispanic Americans to the United States. One of the most visible ways we see Hispanic heritage is through their cuisine, presented through traditional dishes from the many different countries that make up the ethnic group and also fused with local cultures throughout the country. You may be familiar with tacos and salsa, however, there’s much more beyond the typical fare. It’s only right I honor some of their most popular foods here at the tail-end of the designated month. Tacos Tacos are perhaps the most popular Hispanic food throughout the world, and for good reason. Not only does the au- thentic version taste out of this world, their versatility makes them easy to have no matter the time of day or flavor profile you’re craving. Although they are commonly seen in the U.S. with a hard corn shell, they are traditionally composed of a soft flour or corn tortilla topped with a flavorful, marinated meat – such as carne asada, carnitas or al pastor – and topped with chopped onion for some bite, cilantro for freshness and lime to break up the savoriness of the meat. Tacos have become a staple throughout the country in different variations. Paella The Spanish – specifically, Valencian – origins of this dish can be identified by its coastal influence, traditionally featuring a medley of seafood such as mussels, shrimp and squid. The rice is seasoned with the regional spice saffron, which is what gives the dish its vibrant golden hue. Chock-full with possibly other meats and vegetables, paella is a perfect food for a celebration. Elote This Mexican street corn is typically topped with chili powder, lime, butter, sour cream and cheese, making for a much more fun version of your everyday corn on the cob. Empanadas Many Hispanic countries have their own version of these pocket pastries, but they are typically savory fried or baked “turn- overs” with different fillings such as pork or beef mixed with spices and diced vegetables. Mole This deep sauce is featured on other Hispanic dishes such as enchiladas, with many recipes featuring the main ingredients of chiles and chocolate, which provide a smoky and rich balance. Arepas Hailing from Colombia and Venezuela, arepas are a simple and classic food that has regional variations. They can probably be best described as a flat, round patty made from corn or plantains and fried, sometimes with a topping or filling such as cheese, butter or avocado. Ceviche Another popular seafood-based dish, ceviche is commonly eaten in coastal countries such as Peru and Ecuador and is raw chopped fish marinated in fresh lime juice and tossed with chopped onions, salt, chili and other seasonings. Some people eat it with a tortilla, chips or by the spoonful. Other popular Hispanic foods: churros, flan, tres leches cake, enchiladas, chilaquiles, margaritas and much more!

More United States presidents were born in October than any other month, while only five first ladies were born in October.

The Anglo-Saxons’ name for October was Winterfylleth, containing the words for winter and full moon respectively. It was named this because winter was said to begin from the first full moon of the month.

The Saxons had a name for October, too. Theirs was Wyn Monath, which translates to “wine month” because it was the time of the year for making wine.

IN THE U.S.A., OCTOBER NOT ONLY MARKS THE ONSET OF THE FESTIVE SEASON BUT IS ALSO CELE- BRATED AS THE NATIONAL PIZZA MONTH, POPCORN MONTH, PORK MONTH AND SAUSAGE MONTH. Thursday, October 15, 2020 • DailyCampus.com 09 Sports
