Sot Suppe (Norwegian Sweet Soup) for Christmas by LeAnn R.Ralph

My mother was the daughter of Norwegian immigrants who homesteaded our small Wisconsin dairy farm in the late 1800s. When my mother was a child, sweet soup was a traditional part of Christmas Eve, served cold with julekake, lefse, Christmas bread, or open-faced sandwiches. Sweet Soup is made with dried fruit and tapioca.

Sot Suppe

• 6 cups water

• 1/3 cup sugar

• 1 tablespoon quick-cooking tapioca

• 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (depending upon how well you like the taste of cinnamon; you can also use a cinnamon stick)

• 2 cups dried fruit (use any kind you like: apples, apricots, peaches or a mixture of dried fruit)
