It was in Berlin we tasted this double soup for the first time. We had spent a long morning in the museums and then climbing the top of the Berlinerdom. We were cold and hungry and when this soup came to our table in the small café where we finally sat down for a late lunch, it tasted like a kiss from heaven.
On our last day in Berlin we took our friends to the same café. The setting was all the same, the soup was all the same, though, still yummy, the heavenly kiss was not there anymore. Well, heavenly kiss or not heavenly kiss, I loved the soup and decied I would try to make it at home.
Which I finally did yesterday, on Valentine´s Day.
The red soup is made by beetroot, red onion, salt and pepper, the white one of califlower, leek, garlic, salt, pepper and vegeta.
In two different pots I boiled the vegetables and water for 15-20 minutes, then blended the vegetables and the water with a handblender. Make sure you don´t use too much water. The soups are meant to be thick and creamy.
Taste and add more pepper if necessary.
Tada.........the soup is finished and the Valentine kiss ready to digest ;-)

I have written several food and travel tales lately here. I think it is time to move them over to Caffe Avec.......and hopefully there will be more there in the future.
