What a nice coincidence: I just had delicious Elderberry Apple Soup last weekend in Glückstadt. Its a tiny town not far from Hamburg at the river Elbe in Northern Germany. I went there for a weekend with my husband without the kids and it was lovely. We chose it on a whim, having no idea what we would see or do and ended up eating both evenings in a very lovely restaurant (Der kleine Heinrich) serving classic Northern German food. It was sooo good!. The soup was our dessert on the first evening and it was perfection. Only: My mother used to put Sago into the soup, which we kids called frog eggs. I missed those :-) Maybe I can use this recipe to try it out myself AND put the Froscheier in :-)
That soup brings back so many memories--my host mother is from Flensburg, and she used to make her own Fliederbeersaft and make many things from it--jellies and such--but I had forgotten about this soup until you posted it on Insta. I need to check out Kochtail next time I'm in Berlin!
As a German not really eating lots of classic German food ( Bratkartoffeln and Franzbrötchen being the beloved exception ) I learn a lot about German food and cooking from your letters,😁
I would simply lose my mind in such an amazing shop! Can’t wait for the book!

Wie schön!
Great interview! I don’t think I’d ever heard of a sweet soup.
