This just in!!!! Hozier does NOT like Badgers!
Happy Birthday Hozier!
Here’s a badger fun fact:
- Badgers will bite and continue to bite until they hear bones break. When they hear bones breaking, they finally let go. To prevent this, Crispbread was invented to be kept in the boots of Nordic hikers so when Badgers went for the ankles, they’d hear the crunch of the crispbread thinking it was a bone cracking, giving them an indicator to let go. Plus! Crispbread would double as trail food. >:) 🦡
Looks like maybe I really am assimilating, based on the quick lunch I just grabbed! 😅 Had to get a little amused.
Complete with another one of these, after a recent little kitchen paraphernalia shopping trip!
Own an “osthyvel” Swedes and cheese You have arrived in Sweden, bought comfy bed, nice curtains an oak table and timeless cutlery. A Swedish
(Neither of our existing ones seems to have made it through the move, and of course Temporary Apartment had some in the kitchen. He kept thinking we must have at least one slicer around, but finally remembered to pick another one up over the weekend.)
It slices, it...slices! That's all the thing does. It shaves off thin slices of stuff. You can use it to peel a cucumber to eat with your cheese too, in a pinch. But, a rather handy tool for a couple of cheese-eating fools, nonetheless.
(Not pictured: a schmear of butter to glue the the cheese on with. Directly cognate with smör, incidentally! 😊 As an American barbarian not at all used to butter as a multipurpose sandwich spread, I started out a tad skeptical about the goodness of that particular combo. But, it can go especially well with a mild creamy-tasting cheese like that. I was down for creamy and soothing today.)
Actually, I am the only pickled herring fan in the house. Fish in general, for that matter. I hadn't tried that type yet, but was seeing it on sale everywhere in advance of Midsummer--and had to remedy that! 😁
The archipelago herring has become a big favorite in Sweden in just a few decades. Get a history review plus a simple, delicious recipe.
Pretty good stuff! 😋 In a sour cream sauce with some chives and basically a little red caviar for color, at least in Abba's version. Mellows out the vinegar taste a good bit.
I actually got full before I cracked open that (no added sugar) blueberry and vanilla kvarg. I'm the only one grabbing at that here, too, since the amount of lactose might bother him and the threshold of what I can handle is enough higher. Handy lowish-carb snack for later.
Quark (called kvarg or kesella in Sweden) is used a lot in Swedish cooking and is widely available in Sweden in two forms. See our recommend
