Measure | Ingredient |
---|---|
500 grams | Elderberries without stems (a generous lb) |
\N \N | Sugar to taste |
1 pinch | Salt |
⅛ litre | Milk (1/2 cup plus 1/2 Tbsp) |
50 grams | Butter (3 1/2 Tbsp) |
1 tablespoon | Flour |
From the Allgaeu area.
Pull the elderberries off their stems and briefly cook in a skillet with very little water. Then add either a roux or a smooth mixture of milk with a little bit of flour. Constantly stirring, bring to a good boil. Add a spoonful of honey. If the mush has been made with the milk/flour mixture, then pour hot clarified butter on top.
In some places, pan-toasted bread cubes are scattered on top. The elderberry mush is served directly in the copper skillet.
Serves 4.
