598.1FRUIT SOUPSGEMVAX::ADAMSTue May 24 1988 14:1931
    This is the FRUIT SOUP recipe from the "Moosewood Cookbook" by Mollie
    Katzen.  She calls it a "sample recipe, quite basic"; in other words
    adapt freely.
    
    Combine in blender:
    	3 c. fruit juice (unsweetened--orange, apple, pineapple,
    			  grape--your choice)
    	a banana
    	chopped, peeled apple
    	1/2 tsp. dry mint
    	juice from 1 lemon
    	a chopped, peeled peach
    	pieces of fresh cantaloupe
    	a couple T. honey (to taste)
    	1 c. yogurt, sourcream, or buttermilk
    	your choice of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, sweet wine, whatever
   
    Thicken with more bananas or yogurt if you like it thick.
    Thin with more fruit juice if you like it thin.
    Needs to chill before serving.
    
    Top each serving with yogurt or sour cream and fresh mint.
                     
    Serves 4-6
    
    
    P.S.  There are another ten recipes for cold soups in there--I highly
    recommend the book.

    Carol, these are not like "Daffodil's" (which is now an Italian
    Rest.) but they are all I had.  They sound delicious.

    2 tbs fresh lemon or lime juice
    dash of cinnamon
    dash of nutmeg
    1 1/2 pint fresh berries (ie rasberry, blueberry, strawberry)
          
    Wisk together everything but the berries.  Chill thoroughly.  Divide
    berries into individual bowls (cut in half large strawberries) ladling
    soup over them.                       
                                          
                                          
                            Strawberry Autumn Soup
                                          
    2 pint fresh Californian strawberries

    1 c honey                             
    1 cup heavy cream, whipped            
    	                                  
    Remove hulls from strawberries.  Liquefy 1 cup of strawberries with
    1/4 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in blender.  Pour into large
    saucepan.  Continue until all strawberries are used.  Stir in salt, 
    1 cup sour cream, claret and lemon.  Heat slowly stirring constantly.
                                          
    Fold 1/2 cup sour cream into whipped cream gently.  Spoon over bowls
    of soup.                              
                                          
    If you try any of these tell us how they came out.

598.4Looking for Cherry Soup RecipeANGLIN::LAUERSDORFWed Dec 14 1994 22:2312
    I'm looking for an old German recipe for Cherry soup.  This is a recipe
    that my grandmother made for me when I was a child.  The soup was made
    with tart cherries and could be served either cold or hot.  It also had
    dumplings in it.
    
    I've been checking recipe books for the last 15 years with no success.
    
    Does anyone have a recipe for this?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Glen
