Instructions

  1. Wash the lilacberries, pluck them and cook them with a little lemon peel and the cinnamon stick in a liter of water for 10 minutes. Strain the lilac berries through a sieve and bring to the boil again with the sugar (125 g). Mix the red wine and starch together and thicken the soup. Remove the core from the apples, peel them if necessary and cut them into thin slices that are added to the soup.
  2. For the dumplings, bring the milk, butter and a pinch of salt to the boil. Pour in the semolina all at once and cook (burn off) into a thick dumpling. Skip the egg, vanilla sugar and sugar.
  3. Cut off the dumplings with a teaspoon and let them steep in slightly boiling salted water (the dumplings are done when they float on the surface). Arrange the semolina dumplings in the soup and serve.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
