It's Soup Saturday Swappers time. This is the time of the month where we make and post about a soup and then share it. Each month has a different theme. Wendy of A Day in the Life on the Farm started this group and since it's the third Saturday, it's time for soup.
Camilla is our hostess this month, and she wanted us to do a Fruit Soup.
Hey, I'm a Dane and we make a lot of fruit soups.
I mean. I got this. I'd made some Kammerjunkere for the Improv Cooking Challenge. This month's challenge was Cookies and Cream.
Kammerjunkere are served not only with Koldskål, but also with fruit soups of all kinds.
Since I had a bunch of Kammerjunkere still left...
And since they go so well with fruit soups...
I kinda cheated on this, but that's after I saw the price of fresh raspberries at the store.
I'm sorry, but I'm not into mortgaging my house just yet to buy berries.
I miss the good old days of running down to the field and picking pounds and pounds of raspberries. And eating as many as I wanted, while picking.
And you know, it's OK. It all works.
BTW, you need to try this combo, you do. After taste testing it, I had to keep myself from eating the whole thing. But I restrained myself, barely.
This is going to be my contribution to Tapas Time this month. I'm not hosting so I get to play. giggle.
and since the plate looked kinda bare.
I added the Kammerjunkere and dunked one...

Sid, thanks for joining me! This looks delicious. I can't wait till raspberries are in season to try it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the theme. We preferred our raspberries fresh off the bushes but Mom made a version of this from time to time, and then we'd eat a lot of frozen raspberries as well.
DeleteOh my gosh Sid. I loved these cookies when you served them with the buttermilk soup and it was a perfect segue into this amazing raspberry soup.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy, they were even better with the soup. In fact, I'm taking it with me to Tapas tonight. Can't wait to introduce it.
DeleteSid, this sounds delightful! It's absolutely crazy how much berries cost in the grocery, I agree! But I cannot wait to try this soup. Lovely! P~
ReplyDeleteThanks it was/is good. And I don't think frozen berries made any real difference. Especially, when they were almost half the cost of fresh. And then when I did get some fresh ones, half were bad. Frozen is the way for me to go unless I can pick my own. But the soup, OMG it is good.
DeleteThis looks so delicious! Raspberries are my favorite....I can hardly wait to give this a try.
ReplyDeleteTry it, you'll like it. Seriously, I'm making this again. I served it last night to friends and they ate it all. And I made a double batch.
DeleteI too miss being able to walk outside and pick berries right off of the bush. It's insane what they charge for fresh berries. However, I will have to say that my pricey farmer's market strawberries did taste pretty amazing this week. Lovely recipe this month and so colorful!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a close by Farmer's Market, but I don't. I would totally buy there. sigh
DeleteThanks, this was a popular dish at Tapas this month as well. I didn't get any leftovers...
This looks so delicious. We are fortunate here that raspberries aren't too expensive, so I definitely be trying this!
ReplyDeleteYou're on the right coast to get raspberries for a good price. You do need to try this, and it's a great way to use up that leftover cup of wine. OK, so I had to open a new bottle to make it...
DeleteI love raspberries- this looks so yummy with the cookie! In my area it will take a while for peak season, but they are worth the wait!
ReplyDeleteWhen they do hit their peak, try this. It's worth the wait.
DeleteThanks so much for sharing your awesome post with us at Full Plate Thursday! Hope you are having a great week and come back to see us real soon.
