Time 1h

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup dried apricot
3/4 cup dried prune
6 cups cold water
1 cinnamon stick
2 lemon slices, 1/4-inch thick
3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons raisins
1 tablespoon dried currant
1 tart apple (peeled, cored, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices)

Steps:

  • In a large 3-quart (or bigger) stainless steel or enamel saucepan, combine the apricots and prunes with the cold water and let soak for 30 minutes.
  • Next, add the cinnamon stick, lemon slices, tapioca and sugar to the pot, and bring to a boil; once boiling, reduce the heat and cover the pan; let simmer for 10 minutes (stir occasionally with a wooden spoon since the fruits can stick to the bottom of the saucepan).
  • After the 10 minutes are up, remove the cover and stir in the raisins, currants and apple slices; simmer for 5 more minutes (the apples should then be soft and tender; if not, simmer a wee bit longer).
  • Pour the soup mixture into a large serving bowl and let cool to room temperature.
  • When soup has cooled, fish out the cinnamon stick, cover the bowl, and chill in the refrigerator.
  • This dessert is served cold, in either dessert dishes or soup bowls; makes for a very light dessert.

My grandma always served this traditional Swedish dessert to guests. Any dried fruit can be used. I use apples, cranberries, prunes, dates, raisins, apricots, whatever I have. From the "Swedish Food" cookbook, which suggests serving this with Swedish rusks.
