Dear Heidi,
How do you make Mehlsuppe? I hear you’re supposed to eat it for Morgestraich.

Dear Rose,
I don’t ever make Mehlsuppe — I can’t stand Mehlsuppe! But I can tell you how to make it, and it’s very popular for our Fasnacht festival. You can buy packets in all the grocery shops, like Coop and Migros; then just add water and when it boils, let it cook for about seven minutes. Add onions and cheese, like Gruyère or Appenzeller.
Or if you want make it from scratch, I found some links for you:
