PREFACE

Having sent several recipes for Norwegian food to a cousin in Minnesota it struck me that perhaps I should put these on the web page so that others can use them. Since I'm not a chef, I had to retrieve recipes partly in my grandmother's recipe, and partly online. I must admit that I have not tried to make all the dishes myself, but I've eaten most.

I have decided to keep the Norwegian names on the recepies in the page menu. I have done some translation out in the different recips. All the messures are in metric with a converted value for US messurements.

WARNING

Some of the recipes such as "lutefisk" and special "rakfisk" describes how they are made from scratch. I would strongly recommend buying finished "lutefisk" and especially "rakfisk" in hand to create these dishes. The reason is that one can easily damage the fish in the process, and it will become toxic.

LUTEFISK

Lutefisk is an old traditional Christmas dinners in Norway. In the past it was often related to where in the country you came from, but today they have different traditions spread around the country. Not all eating lutefisk on Christmas Eve (main celebration of Christmas takes place on Christmas Eve in Norway), but many eat it in connection with Christmas.

Make lutefisk at home

There is no time-consuming but not difficult to make the traditional lutefisk itself. Here we show you how to do it. Good luck!

1 Soak stockfish
Let dry fish soak for six or seven days in cold water that is changed daily. Very dry fish may require more time, up to 14 days. When dried fish soaked handle it as a fresh product. That means it must be kept cold and the water must be cold all the time, often with ice.

2 Add Lutvann
Create lye after one of the recipes below, add the soaked stockfish into lye and leave it in two days. Remember to keep the water cold. Do not use vessels of aluminum or zinc for the lye treatment. Lye water must cover the stockfish, the swells considerably during the lye treatment.

Lut of caustic soda
Measure 10 l (21.13 US pint) of cold water in the tub as stockfish lutes in.
Measure out 40-50 g (1.4 - 1.75 oz) caustic soda and sprinkle it into the water.
Stir until the soda is dissolved.

Ash lye
Pour 10 l (21.13 US pint) of boiling water over 4 l (8.45 US pint) ash. Use clean ashes of hardwood, preferably birch.
Take coal chunks of surface and allow liquor to stand undisturbed until it is cold.
Pour the clear liquor.
Mix with water until it is suitably strong, that's it when it feels very smooth and slippery between your fingers.

3 Water out
After the lye process fish must be soaked for 2-3 days in cold water, some will leave it for several days.

RAKFISK

Norwegian fish dish made from trout or sometimes char, with a mix salt/suger and fermented for two to three months, or even up to a year, then eaten without cooking.You will perhaps two that Rakfisk smells, but actually it smells good "rakfisk" very little. Although given a recipe here for making "rakfisk" from scratch I would recommend that you buy finished "rakfisk". The reason is that it is extremely easy to destroy the "rakfisk" in the process.

How to make it.

Use fresh, oily fish, preferably trout. Clean and rinse it well.

Mix salt and sugar in a ratio of ca. 50 g (1.75 oz) of salt per liter. 1 teaspoon sugar. Some use this mixture only in the abdomen, while others use it everywhere.

Place a layer of salt in the bottom of a vessel. Sprinkle salt mixture in the abdomen and the head of the fish and put it belly up, close together. There should be no large voids. Sprinkle salt mixture over the fish and add the next layer of fish across the first. To put it in layers, with salt on top. Pressure to finish everything down with a lid with a weight on.

Sheets formed, intended to cover the fish. If the lake level drops, you have to refill more.

Keep in a cool, approximately four degrees.

How long it is, determines how sharp it is in flavor. Most farms stock three varieties: mild, stored and well-matured.

The mild was stored for three to four months, and the well-matured in a year.

WARNING: Please be extremely cleanly and carefully, depraved rakfisk can give poisoning.

Easy dinner

A lutefisk dinners are easy to prepare: Cut Fish sliced. Serve with chopped red onion, sour cream or creme fraiche, almond potatoes, lefse or flatbread with mountain butter.

JULERIBBE (Christmas pork ribs)

Juleribbe is an old traditional Christmas dinners in Norway. In the past it was often related to where in the country you came from, but today they have different traditions spread around the country. Not all eating lutefisk on Christmas Eve (main celebration of Christmas takes place on Christmas Eve in Norway), but many eat it in connection with Christmas.

Ingredients:
* Pork ribs (thick with rind)
* pork sausage patties (see recipt)
* pork sausages
* Sauerkraut (surkål) (see recipe)
* boiled potato
* Lingonberry jam (touched)

Served with lefse.

Cooking the ultimate Norwegian Christmas rib

Many opinions on how to roast Christmas rib. Unfortunately, most people only take spice on and then throw it in the oven. Booooring!

To get more and better taste, both of ribs and sauce, you should spend 5 minutes extra before putting it into the oven.

Cut squares in sworn and salt / peppered rib well yesterday and left it overnight in the refrigerator.

Do not be afraid to have a little good with spices on. Most are for painstaking and careful with this.

I am still using the water bath method, ie with a roasting pan under a grate. But in the roasting pan, it takes more than just water!

In roasting pan, one should add the following ingredients:

* 2-3 large carrots rough cut
* 2-3 celery stalks rough cut
* 4/5 shallot rough cut
* 10 clove garlic rough cut
* 1/2 bottle of Red Wine
* 1 liter stock (beef or pork, use bouillon cubes if you must)

Let ribs onto a wire rack, relatively close to each roasting pan, with sworn down. That it may be there in 45 minutes to 1 hour at 150 degrees C.

After one hour, turn the rib.

Important. For the next hour, take a ladle, pour stock from roasting pan, over sworn ca. every 15 minutes.

This should make sworn become brittle and fine. Also gives it an incredibly good taste as well.

Should you ever need, you can run up the heat to 250 degrees, or turn on the grill for 5 minutes towards the end, but it should not be necessary.

Sauce (most people in Norway only use the bouillon from roasting). Well, the bouillon which is now located in the roasting pan is lovely. The sauce is almost done already. Sift it, keep it in a saucepan with thickening or smooth it afterwards with Maizena thickening. Season with salt and pepper if necessary.

SURKÅL (Homemade Norwegian sauerkraut)

Surkål is a necessary accessory for the Norwegian Christmas food ribs, but is used in parts of Norway for almost all types of roast (especially pork), and also other types of dishes. For example, potatoes, meatball, gravy and surkål which can be tasteful.

Why not impress with his own homemade surkål. It's easy, is only 5 minutes of work, but it needs to simmer for an hour.

What you need for 6-8 large servings:

* 1 cabbages (normal size)
* 2 green / sour apples
* 1-2 bouillon cubes of pork or beef.
* 4 tablespoon 7% white vinegar
* 4 tablespoon sugar
* 3 tsp salt
* 5 tsp cummin (whole, not ground)
* 0.5 liter water (aprox. 1.06 US Pint)

Cut cabbages in 4, cutting off the stem, remove the outer leaves and cut / cut it in fine, a bit thin slices.

Cut the apples into wedges, avoiding the core course.

Keep this in a large saucepan.

Add the vinegar, sugar, salt, cummin. Dissolve bouillon cube in the water and have this in it.

Boil it up, under a lid. Let it simmer for an hour. May well stand for two hours. Stir a little now and then, and should the water evaporate completely, pour on a little so it does not sting in the bottom.

Taste it all with salt, vinegar and sugar to taste. I like my little acidic, so then I placed more vinegar. Others like it sweeter, and need more sugar.

MEDISTERKAKER (Homemade pork sausage patties)

Pork sausage patties a necessary accessory for the Norwegian Christmas food ribs, but is used in parts of Norway as at other times of the year often as a right along with potatoes, gravy and sauerkraut. This is something that can be tasteful.

Creating own pork mince, is no witchcraft. To create your own pork sausage patties will be to top the Christmas dinner! Guaranteed!

In a bowl, take the following steps:

* 500 gr. pork mince. (Have grinder, you can create it yourself)
* 1/2 finely chopped onion
* 2 tsp ground nutmeg
* 1 teaspoon ground ginger
* 2 tsp salt
* 1 tsp freshly ground pepper
* 2 tsp potato flour

This must be mixed well together.

Then fry a small cake to try these before you start frying up all together. Some minced meat is a bit salty, or more fat etc. This allows the flavor varies. Add more seasonings to your own taste.

So forms your patties with wet hands or a spoon. Bake in skillet on medium to high heat until you get a little brown nice crust on the outside. Feel free to use butter, not oil for frying.

Add them in an ovenproof dish and place the in the oven for about 15 minutes at 180-200 degrees Celsius (356 - 392 degree Fahrenheit). To do this, of course, just before they are served for them to be extra good and juicy.

Ready!.

Of course you can freeze these down and warms gently in the oven, or "worst case" in the microwave.

This simple recipe makes shame on all finished pork mince.

LEFSE/LOMPE

There are two Norwegian words I think all of Norwegian heritage in the United States know and it is "lefse" and "lutefisk" .Lefse and cousin lompe is used throughout Norway, but traditionally it was probably the inner part of the country that it was most prevalent.

Lefse and lomper is basically the same recipe. Lomper is less (approximately 20 to 22 cm) and thicker than lefse. To make lefse or lompe must have a griddle see picture below). Lefse made thinner and large, normally so that they cover the entire cooking surface.

To a small portion potato lompe or lefse:

* 200 grams of rye flour (0.44 pounds)
* 200 gram flour (0.44 pounds)
* 1 tsp salt

The potatoes are boiled in their shell, peeled while hot.

It is important that the potatoes are freshly boiled and heat for the dough to be tenacious enough.

The potatoes should be run at least twice in a kitchen grinder or kitchen machine with k-element / grind'n (minimum 10 minutes)

Then add rye flour.

We are now ready to roll out lompe / lefse!

Take small clumps of the sticky dough, roll in flour and roll out with plenty of flour, it is intended that the rest of the flour shall Roll in, you can also mix in more flour before kjevlingen.

Use one lid to protrude round lomper, or roll out a big lefse (should almost cover the griddle).

It's not easy, but the more you work with the dough the easier it goes, like in life, practice makes perfect.

Then bake them in a griddle ...

Griddle be heated to a high temperature, but not so things burning.

Then bake lompe / lefse on each side, push in those with fork so they do not blow up.

Stack them on top of each other so they do not become dry and brittle.

Store in plastic bags.

Note: Lompe / lefse can be frozen.

Vafler (Norwegian waffels)

Regarding Norwegian waffles there maybe a problem to make them in the US. The reason for this is that you will need a special waffle iron to fry them. I have managed one US supplier of the iron for making Norwegian wafles and that is: https://chefschoice.com. In the old days there was iron that was put on the stove. I know that some have used iron for Belgian waffles, but the flavor will not be quite the same.

Ingredients:

4 Servings

* 20 dl flour (8.5 cups)
* 8 teaspoons baking powder
* 4 cup sugar (1.7 cup)
* 20 dl Culture Milk (or milk) (8.5 cups)

Melt the butter in a pan on medium heat.

Mix the flour, cardamom, baking powder and sugar in a bowl. Then mix the buttermilk, plain milk, eggs and the melted butter into the dry.

Let waffle batter swell (rest) for at least 15 to 20 minutes.

Heat the waffle iron and butter it possibly with a little butter before cooking starts. Cool the waffles on a rack if you want them crispy. If you add fresh waffles on top of another in a heap, they become soft.

Server waffles warm, with cold sour cream, brown Norwegian goat cheese jam or fresh berries lingonberry on.

RASPERISK (A kind of potato pancake)

This is a dish that comes from the inner southeast parts of Norway (Hedemark and Oppland). It is time consuming to make, but even I think it's so good that it is well worth it.

Ingredients:

4 Servings

* 1.5 kg potatoes
* 200 g barley flour
* 2 teaspoons salt
* 1 dash butter for frying

How to do it:

Råskrelte potatoes were grated, mixed with barley flour or flour and salt and fried like pancakes, in plenty of well margarine. During frying one could make small holes in the risk, it gave more crispy crust. One had to not use excessive heat, and had to have so much flour that the risk held together. Someone brought some milk into it, other water and some also added eggs when they created risk.

The most common were sugar and drink cold milk, but also syrup and red sauce was used. Some also used fried pork / bacon or sour apple jam. Eat freshly cooked and is a delicacy today.

KRUMKAKE (Norwegian wafer cone)

Krum Cakes are one of the Christmas classics. Yet is Krum Cakes served year round either as an accompaniment to coffee coziness or dessert served with such cloudberry cream or a fresh salat of berries. This recipe provides approximately 35 crunchy good wafer biscuits so Grandma would have made them.

Ingredients:
(Approx. 35 cakes)

* 4 eggs
* 250 g sugar (8.8 oz)
* 250g Dairy Butter, melted (8.8 oz)
* 250g plain flour (8.8 oz)
* ½ teaspoon ground cardamom (optional)

How to do it:

You need a Krumkake iron (search "krumkake" on english wikipedia or go to: https://chefschoice.com) and possibly a curved cake stick.

Beat the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Stir in the butter, flour and cardamom. Let the batter swell for about 1 hour.

Add a large teaspoon stir in the middle of the hot iron. Bake cakes golden yellow at low heat.

Shape into cones around a curved cake stick quickly while the cake is still piping hot. If you want to sculpt cakes to strull (a straight pipe), use a stick and roll the cake around. You can also add the cakes over a cup. You will receive a form that you can fill with cream and often fresh berries, or whatever you want.

Keep curved cakes in tight box.

Be careful, the cakes are fragile. If you drop box will probably have only crumbs.
