Sago Soup with Milk

4 servings

Ingredients

• 4 tbsp sago (true or potato sago)
• water (a little)
• cinnamon (piece)
• lemon zest (a little)
• 1 l milk
• sugar and salt (to taste)

Instructions

1. Start the true sago with a little boiling water, and let it slowly swell by the fire with cinnamon and lemon zest.
2. Bring the milk to a boil, add the sago, season with sugar and salt, and bring to a boil once.
3. If using potato sago, instead bring milk with a little water, cinnamon, and lemon zest to a boil, then pour in the dry sago as soon as the milk boils.

Modernized from a treasured 19th-century German cookbook.
