Norwegian dinner, anyone?

[roxanne]

I was just looking up recipes for Norwegian cooking.  I also looked up Viking, but that seemed a little undoable to me.  Found some great recipes for current Norwegian, including Swedish meatballs that are, I guess, popular in Norway.  (Of course, called something else.)  Other recipes were for baked lemon salmon and seafood bisque with shrimp.  Will try to put some on here:

Sounds like an adventure! I'm in for the next party. I'll start looking up Norwegian foods to find a dish. We'll just Concentrate on already revealed crushes, I was really glad that I didn't reveal my crush. But what fun with poetry and people from all over getting together to talk and get to know everyone!

Yaay! Maybe this time I'll actually make something. x3

Sorry I missed the last party.Count me in with this one,even if it's just a quick drop in.

I see a recipe for cardamom buns that looks very good, lots of potato pancake recipes too. I generally ruin any fish that I try to cook so I'll keep clear of the fish recipes.

Send a link if you can for the buns; sounds great.  Also if you see any good lefke (sp?) recipes.

Do you have a provisional date for our party yet?

Another site had a picture that looked yummy, hot fresh bread always looks great. This site has a bunch of potato pancake and meatball recipes too.

Here's a whole dinner - chicken fricassee, boiled potatoes, carrots, peas & cauliflower.  Add the buns & some lingonberries for dessert.  They had a recipe on that site for a lingonberry(sp?) cake that looked great.  I don't know if we can get them or the preserves, but I know Dr. Oz says they are fantastic for you.

That whole site - from J Noland's link has wonderful recipes.  I really thought they ate primarily fish.

I was looking at that chicken fricassee too! I never actually knew what a fricassee was. I wonder if there's a good substitute for lingonberries. I've heard the word but not sure if I know what they are.

Heres a book by one of our prominent chefs http://www.nb.no/utlevering/contentview.jsf?&urn=URN:NBN:no-nb_...

Lingonberry, cowberry, mountain cranberry: Tyttebær [tyttebaer]. Small red berry found at altitude, sour and fruity taste, should be mixed with some sugar and whole pieces of cinnamon.
