Etimoloxía (Inglés)

Herdado de Middle High German: grütze

Herdado de Old High German: gruzzi

In summary

From Middle High German grütze, from Old High German gruzzi (“coarse grains”), of the same root as Proto-Germanic *greutą = English grit, German Grieß.
The term is applied to “ground” fruit because older desserts such as rote Grütze originally included cereal grains, and preserved the name despite substituting starch for the cereal grains; more recent dishes (e.g. gelbe Grütze) are named by analogy to the older dishes. For the “shrewdness“ sense a contamination by Early New High German Kritz cannot be excluded, that apart from being an instance noun to complement today’s kritzeln also meant “wit”.
