Rødbærsuppe

Rødbærsuppe is a traditional Danish soup made primarily from red berries. The specific berries used can vary, but common choices include raspberries, strawberries, and sometimes blackcurrants or lingonberries. The berries are typically cooked down with water and sugar to create a sweet and slightly tart base. Often, a thickening agent such as cornstarch or potato starch is added to achieve the desired consistency. Rødbærsuppe is usually served chilled, making it a popular choice during warmer months.

It is often accompanied by a dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. In some variations, a splash of lemon juice is added to brighten the flavors. The preparation is relatively straightforward, involving simmering the berries until soft, then straining them to remove seeds if desired, before thickening and sweetening. Rødbærsuppe is enjoyed as a light dessert or a refreshing treat, showcasing the natural sweetness and vibrant color of the red berries. Its simplicity and delicious taste have cemented its place in Danish culinary tradition.
