Such an awful name for such a wonderful food. It really does sound
like something that you should use in your bathroom to lay tile, but the
smell and taste is next to Heaven. There are of course MANY recipes for
this and mine is completely different than my Moms. I *believe* this
one came from my Grandma Minnie. I will also warn a newbie to
Scandinavian Foods, this is a love it or hate it food. My Mom, my sister
and I LOVE it. My Dad stands firm on my comment about the bathroom
tiles.
I made this last night for Christmas in Mayville tonight and it turned
out great once again
It was a great little bedtime treat!
Re: Romegrot
Oh I know! Some recipes are milk and flour and that's it! But trust me, mine is good! My family and DH's family request it every year. But once you get a taste of a bad one, it's hard to want to try a good one!
I'm in the anti-lutefisk category too! My Dad hates it so much that when Mom used to make it when we were kids, he would take all of us out to pizza.

God, I hate rommegrot. I know my family's recipe is supposed to be great (apparently it was brought over on the boat with an older relative) but I can't stand the stuff. It tastes like hot paste with butter, nutmeg & cinnamon.
I hate lutefisk, too, but oddly, I have very strong opinions how it needs to be eaten if one is going to eat it.
I love lefse, but I will only eat it with butter & brown sugar. Has to be brown.
