Sweet and sour cherry soup
Print recipeIngredients
- 500g sour cherries (or cherries, apricots, plums, gooseberries)
- 100g sugar
- 2l water
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 6 cloves
- 1 stick vanilla (or 1 tbs vanilla sugar)
- 1-2 egg yolks
- 1-2 tablespoon icing sugar
- 1-2 tablespoon cream
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Take out the pits from the sour cherries and spread sugar over them. Let them rest over night or at least for a few good hours - the fruits will leave a delicious syrup that you can enjoy with mineral water and ice cubes - the perfect homemade summer juice! | |
| Step 2 | |
| Put the fruits in cold water, and add the cinnamon, cloves, vanilla and salt. Bring to boil and cook them for about 8-10 minutes. Let it cool down aside. | |
| Step 3 | |
| In a cup mix the egg yolks with the icing sugar until it becomes a nice yellow paste. Pour the cream and stir until homogenous. | |
| Step 4 | |
| Once the soup is cold, add the cream-egg mixture and stir. It is now ready to serve. | |
