Sinbohntjesopp

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
East Frisian Bohntjesopp

With Sinbohntjesopp (also Sienbohnsupp , Bohntjesopp or Kinnertön ) is in East Friesland a typical regional liquor referred to. Outside the region, the specialty of East Frisian cuisine is also known as the Frisian bean soup . In addition, the Sinbohntjesopp (Low German literally translated raisin soup ) is also known as Branntwien mit Rosienen ( Low German 'brandy with raisins' or 'raisins in brandy') or as raisin brandy .

The components of Sinbohntjesopp are raisins , sugar syrup from Kluntje and Ostfreeske Brannwien (a flavored brandy similar to brandy ). These ingredients are put in a sealable, traditionally earthen vessel for several weeks . As with many regional recipes, there is no uniform method of preparation in this case, but the result is always raisins that have soaked themselves in a sugar-brandy solution and are consumed together with it. The Sinbohntjesopp is traditionally drunk from miniature tea cups , the Brannwienskopjes (Low German for brandy glasses ); the raisins are eaten with the enclosed teaspoon.

According to East Frisian custom , the Sinbohntjesopp is set on the occasion of the impending birth of a child. Friends and neighbors toast the birth of the child with this Kinnertön (Low German for children's toe ). The expression "Kinnertön" is derived from the Low German term for "children's toe", as the pickled raisins look like little children's toes.
