Rote Gruetze - Red Berry Fruit Compote - German Dessert | German Recipes by All Tastes German

Rote Grütze is a typical speciality in northern Germany. From East Friesland to Bremen and Hamburg and up to Mecklenburg-Vorpommern – the dessert is tradition everywhere.

In a Schleswig-Holstein dictionary from the 17th century the first recipe for Rote Grütze can be found – “Roode Grütt”. At this time the cereal porridge was cooked in black currant juice and served with cream or milk.

Two centuries later, many different recipes were created, that contribute to the multitude of recipes that exist today.

However, the origin is not quite clear, because the Scandinavians also claim the Rote Grütze for themselves.
