Norwegian Christmas Dinner?
Anyone knows where I can get a Norwegian Christmas plate on the island? Only seen Danish and Swedish ones.
Also, Norwegian Aquevit? Anyone?

The diffrence between Danish and Norwegian Cristmas dinner is very little.
They use the same ingrediens as us.
De bruker også steik av and, gås eller svin — flæskesteg — med visse tradisjonelle tilleggsretter, som sjysaus, kvite og bruna poteter, raudkål, syltetøy (av til dømes rips eller tyttebær), medisterpølse.
Og litle julaften et ein gjerne risgraut som ein drikk mørkt hvidtøl eller saft til.
As i said earlyer the "Runde Tårn" have good food
And he also have Danish snaps(Ålborger) aquavit
It is in the same street as Buffalo

NO !
Christmas pork ribs with Crismas sausage and porkcakes are the most used
1 - 1.6 kg pork ribs
Saw through the bone so the ribs can be pulled apart for serving. Score the rind. Rub with salt and pepper 1 or 2 days before roasting. Pour 2 dl water into the roasting dish, and cover the ribs with foil. Roast in the middle of the oven at 230°C for 30 - 40 minutes. Remove the foil and lower to 200°. Roast spare ribs for a further 1 1/2 hours and midribs for a further 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Leave for 20 minutes before carving.
Serve with pork sausage patties, Christmas sausages, the juice, apples, prunes, red cabbage, red whortleberries and any other family favourites.
And Crismas beer with aquavite
And Dessert Creamed rice :
2 dl. porridge rice
5 dl milk
2 1/2 - 3 dl cream
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
jam
Make rice porridge according to the recipe on the package, or use left-overs. Whip the cream with the sugar and vanilla sugar. Mix the cream and rice porridge. Serve with red fruit sauce or jam

You seems to be a good cook Petter, but I fear you are just too late... Crustasian was looking for a new Chef since his last one left.
But since he returned on his steps, I fear Crusty has no vacancy for you anymore! Poor you!

With the amount of recipies appearing on the board recently, I think there should be a thread with them in.............. Then there could be a seperate comp like once a year in Patong, which I could judge.
Yeah, ok. I think I should be spending more time looking for a new job too.

I tried "Runde Tårn" last year, not bad, but was hoping for a more traditional Norwegian plate this year. Like real "ribbe" (pork ribs). But I guess I'm out of luck.
Also not too crazy about the Danish aquavit.
Optimum would be lutefisk ( Lutefisk) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, but that seems to be out of the question too.

Extra stars in my book, for sure. I like the darker ones (Linie) far better than the lighter “Taffel” ones (Aalborg).
Some trivia about Linie Aquavit:
Quote:
In 1805, Jorgen B. Lysholm’s premium aquavit first crossed the equator on a Norwegian ship en route to the East Indies. Five casks went unsold and made the return journey to Norway. It was discovered that the flavour of this well-travelled batch had been smoothed and enhanced by the ocean voyage, and Linie Aquavit was born.
To this day, every bottle of Linie carries details of its months at sea, and the name of the ship it sailed upon.
|
Quote:
|
While many experts claim that this tradition is little more than a gimmick, some argue that the moving seas and frequent temperature changes cause the spirit to extract more flavour from the casks. Norwegian akvavit distillers Arcus has carried out a scientific test where they tried to emulate the rocking of the casks aboard the "Linie" ships while the casks were subjected to the weather elements as they would aboard the same ship. The finished product was according to Arcus far from the taste that a proper "Linie" akvavit should have, thus the tradition of shipping the akvavit casks past the "Linie" and back continues.

Linie was introduced to me by a friend, captain of the "Sorlandet" and later the "Christian Radich".
Still see the vessels from Wilhelmsen line pass my office with a few containers marked Linie aquavit on deck. Casks inside the containers. Pitty they never fall off the ship.
In the early '80s, IMO (International Maritime Organisation) wanted to change some rules for carrying dangrous goods oversea. The changing of recipients in which you could transport alcohol over sea would make it impossible to ship (and make) Linie. So the Norwegian government objected and got an excemption (or adjustment) to the rules that made it possible to continue this excellent tradition. Skoll.

Skoll (skål) indeed.
Just tells me (yet again) that the Norwegian govt. has got its priorities straight.
Imagine if one of the vessels carrying these “dangerous goods” should ever capsize. Another Exxon Valdes for sure. Or better yet, BOTH: Oily, drunken birds…

If thats what I think it is Forty does that when he caters.. Belly pork with the fat scored in diamonds then the fat either roasted or maybe even burned somehow to make it a crunchy crackling type thing on top..
Tastes so good its gotta be bad for you..

Looks like it has closed down and Rico's has taken over almost the entire right side of the street.
Talked to someone down there (Rico?) who claimed it was called Soi Rico now...

Seems you know what you talking about....just had a shot of LINIE AQUAVIT
(ice cold) That bottle have passed the EQUATOR (LINIE) with the ro\ro carrier
m\s TAIKO (wilhelmsen line) on the way from SINGAPORE and down to AUSTRALIA. It has to be freighted in a sherry oak casked....However self have
carried those containers on\below deck across the equator with norwegian
HOEGH LINE (later sold to german egon oldendorff )...This linie aquavit carriage has gone on since the steamships time back and forth across the
equator the vibration of the ship should make this stuff special which ofcourse
is bullshit ......

Close, but it's not LINIE (i.e. it has not passed the equator on a ship).
Another good useage of it would be to mix it into Fjellbekk (Mountain Stream), even though I prefrer it straight:
