Thanks! Saved. I’ll let you know when I’ve tried it out.
First step is finding a cherry pitter.
No...no salt, no cinnamon stick, and it is NOT a "dessert" disguised as a soup"...it's a cold soup, for the summer time; just like Hungarian string bean soup!
Where did you get that recipe from?
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
saveur.com
Then there is : "DIRTY NOODLES"!
Broad egg noodles smothered in lekvar ( prune jam ), chopped walnuts, and a tiny bit of cinnamon sugar.
But I would KILL for a Makospatko ( poppy seed horn ), like my great grandmother used to make.
Though the simple ( well, not really "simple" ) Palacsinta Torta.
Dobos Torte
Zulily has cherry pitters on sale all the time.
William Sonoma carries them too, but charges more for them.
Hope the above info helps...any questions, just FRmail me. :-)
For more cherry recipes, there's also an Hungarian cherry cake, I have a recipe for.
Poppy seed horn.
Palacsinta Torte.
Sadly, almost ALL Hungarian recipes, found on line, are NOT authentic, nor any good.
Sure, there are regional differences for all of these recipes; however, though mine have been adjusted somewhat, over the centuries and for where they have been cooked ( Hungary V. America ), mine are not only authentic, but also from a few different regions.
There's also poppy seed strudel, totras, and other kinds of cookies, that use poppy seeds.
Must be from the same people who publish this Hungarian Phrase Book
The topping is WRONG! It’s supposed to be flat, there isn’t enough icing between the cake layers, and no chocolate shaving; otherwise it is drool worthy! :-)
And it's not just delicious, but, for me, very easy to make. YUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM !
Love John Cleese and MONTY PYTHON!
Ah Hungarian Cherry Soup!
I remember you talking about this soup before—and it sounded wonderful!!
As I have THREE cherry trees, I can hardly wait to try your recipe this spring :)

In Hungary, my family owned fruit orchards, so there are lots of family stories about them, as well as many recipes that contain fruit; cherry soup evidently was a summer staple for generations, both there and in the USA.
So envious that you have recipes from 8+ previous generations —what a legacy and tribute to your ancestors!!
Thank you for sharing one of those recipes with us here on Free Republic :)

Oh I don't mind sharing recipes. I like to know about other people's recipes too, so it's a give & take that's nice.
My only problem re sharing recipes, is that a lot of what I make, is from being around the people who made these dished and for many, there aren't any written down measurements/measurements that are just guesstimates, because the family tradition is : 1/2 an egg shell full of water, a pinch of that, so and so to taste etc., so you have to grow up knowing what things are supposed to look and taste like, in order to duplicate a lot of the dishes!
