Wild cherries, plums, or assorted berries are good choices for this treat. You may wish to mix several wild fruits.

Simmer equal parts crushed fruit and water for a half hour. Strain to remove seeds if necessary. Add a pinch of salt and a little sugar (to taste). Thicken with flour - 1 tablespoon flour to a quart of liquid.

Garnish with whole fruit, a sprig of min, or a violet leaf.
