Kielonmarjakeitto

Kielonmarjakeitto is a traditional Finnish berry soup made with lingonberries and served cold.

Ingredients - Serves 6

In a large pot, combine the lingonberries, water, and sugar.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the potato starch with a little water to make a slurry.
Slowly pour the slurry into the soup while stirring continuously.
Continue to cook for another 5 minutes, or until the soup has thickened.
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cinnamon.
Allow the soup to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Serve the kielonmarjakeitto cold, topped with a dollop of whipped cream and garnished with fresh mint leaves.
