"Rød Grød med Fløde"
(Red Berry Pudding with Cream)

Old country dessert served during the summer season all over Denmark!
 
"Rødgrød med Fløde" - is an over 200 year old national dish and dessert that is prepared and served in the summertime - when the Danish berries are ready to be picked and eaten. "Rødgrød med Fløde" (Red Berry Pudding with Cream) is almost an unpronounceable Danish sentence for foreigners. The words are formed and pronounced down in the throat - and are used by Danes to test people trying to learn Danish. If you succeed - you will receive great admiration and respect from the Danes - who will feel flattered by your effort in learning Danish. © Copenhagen-Portal.dk
