Soups (Dessert)

Ok, so...who says that soup is only a main course and that every soup in the world must be salted and served with meat or vegetables? Dude, you got a lot to learn and frankly, you are missing out on a lot of good and healthy stuff. 

Free your mind - there's a new preacher in your church/synagogue/mosque/temple and he brought you an exciting sermon worth a hallelujah, or whatever else you exclaim at such point, in your local establishment: 

You got 8 choices of dessert soup for  now, but I'll keep 'em coming at you like a pack of blood hounds after an escaped convict. Try them as an appetizer or as a dessert soup, hot or cold as you please, served with a generous glob of creme fraiche. They're all $ 15 each, come in a 600 ml jug and feed three people.

KOLDSKAAL [cull-scole]

Pronounced [cull-scole], this is a very traditional Danish thing...for those who like tradition, but once again, I like to rock the boat a bit, expand your horizons, so I give you the choice of either traditional or the mango version.

I grew up on this stuff, in Dinkyville, Denmark, and have always loved it a lot. Served with 'jammer-klunker' (lost in translation), a biscotti-like, crunchy cardamom dunker, there's not much better on a nice summer day or as a cold dessert after a good meal.

RHUBARB

I spent my childhood munching on sour rhubarb stalks and chunks of heavy-as-a-brick 100% dark rye logs of bread. They were treats, back then, and as far as the rhubarbs go, there is not much better in life that the steaming hot rhubarb soup I was being served when I had 'been a good boy'. That's probably why I never had the chance to get tired of it.

This stringy, delicious soup with a beautiful natural colour is guaranteed pure and is sweetened ever so lightly with cane sugar. If you have never had rhubarbs before, or you like strawberry-rhubarb pie, you really...really...want to try this one. 

CRANBERRY

My cranberry appetizer and dessert soup is a fabulous way to get the taste buds going and your glands salivating, or to finish off the meal for that matter. It has just that little bit of sweetness but it's certainly not going overboard, and at the other end of the scale, a touch of tartness will linger on your palette, but it's perfectly balanced out and most people will actually admit that, cranberry fan or foe, it's a wonderful little creation.

BLACK CURRANT

Express yourself with this black currant dessert soup or make smaller servings for hors d'euvres and appetizers, just to fire up your guests.
Make a little extra impression by putting your creme fraiche (or natural yogurt, if you don't have creme fraiche) in a squeeze bottle and then trace images. Use your imagination, just like when you make drawings in your cappucino foam.

Mego mango van Dango is to our dessert soups what the Viking god Baldur was to the Vikings: The trickster. At least this picture reminds me of such (I have a good imagination), with its' little firework of creme fraiche. Tricksters and fireworks aside, this one is probably my favourite dessert soup and if out of both creme fraiche and it's replacement; natural yogurt, try adding a little mashed banana or a few blueberries.

RAISIN

Raisins are very versatile fruits and they give a great and popular flavour to this soup. As is the case with any and all of our fruit soups, if complemented with a glass of really nice Sherry or Port, it would be a beautiful little trip to...whatever you chose to label your personal 'Nirvana'.

PRUNES

Prunes! Not just for old farts like me, like this Viking, but for everyone who like magnificent flavour. True, the will help you with your 'bodily functions', too, but more importantly, they just taste really, really good.

APRICOT

Real Vikings like amber. Amber is also known as viking gold, the gold of the old Norse. My amber Apricot soup is soft as velvet, silky smooth and gentle on your taste buds. Try it, and you may just find that them Vikings were brutally good.









If you really want to treat yourself, our dessert soups would go exceptionally well with a glass of really nice Sherry or Port.
