For Myron Drinkwater who asked about Swedish Sweet Soup in
the Oct. 31st newsletter:
Scandinavian Fruit Soup ("spicy and fragrant")
1 cup dried prunes
1 cup dried apricots
1 cup golden raisins
2 apples, thinly sliced
1 (2-inch) cinnamon stick
½ cup sugar
Dash of salt
1/4 lemon, thinly sliced
1/2 orange, thinly sliced
1/3 cup tapioca (or sago, if available)
1 (10 ounce) package frozen strawberries, thawed
Place prunes, apricots and raisins in saucepan; add water to
cover well. Bring to a boil; turn heat as low as possible.
Cover and simmer 30 minutes. Add apples, cinnamon stick,
sugar, salt, lemon, orange, tapioca and juice drained from
strawberries. Simmer uncovered until apples and tapioca are
cooked. Add strawberries and bring to a boil. Add more sugar
if desired. Serve warm or cold, with plain or whipped cream,
if desired.
10 to 12 servings
Myron I also have a Norwegian Fruit Soup recipe which
includes rice and cream ingredients. If you would like that
one, let me know.
