I had left "stuck" as untranslated. Of course its piece, I missed 
that. Thanks for the help.

It was u umlaut, I knew the root was stirred, but wasn't sure the 
exact translation. Scramble is probably as good as anything.

I don't have the original, but am aware how easy it is to confuse S and F.
Its something you do with a pie crust, so set seemed more reasonable than torn.
That recipe had more "typos" than most, I wonder if the original page 
was illegible?

Like I said, the translations are still a little rough.  When I get a 
little farther, I'd love other eyes to go over it.

Did you see the soups I posted here:

but not tonight)
