Bahan-bahan
- 1 lb sweet red cherries (fresh or frozen, pitted)
- 8 cups filtered water
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 4 Tbsp Potato Starch in 1/4 cup cold water
Langkah-langkah
-
Fill a medium pot with 8 cups of water. Add 1 pound of pitted cherries and bring to a boil.
-
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 12 minutes, partially covered (don't cover it completely or the contents may spill over. Stir in 3/4 cup of sugar and 1 Tbsp lemon juice and continue simmering another 3 minutes.
-
Finally dissolve 4 Tbsp of potato starch in 1/4 cup of water and slowly add it to the pot while stirring the soup. Remove from heat and let kissel cool slightly. You can strain out the cherries if you prefer, but I love the texture and flavor they add to the soup. To serve, ladle the very warm soup into bowls or mugs. P.S. It reheats really well. My husband likes his kissel cold. Either way, it's such a treat!
