Friday, 26 August 2016  • "Først tenke på brødet, da bruden." ... or something like that! This is how much bread means to Norwegians ("First think about the bread, then the bride!") I LOVE Norwegian bread! ... Ever since I first tasted it in 1968 on my first trip til gamle Norge. When you take a bite, it says to you: "Now THIS is the stuff of life! Savor it!" Its flavor is full, hearty, a bit sweet and not bitter. It has weight. There is substance to it. I have searched everywhere we've lived, east coast, west coast, midwest, and have not been able to find its equal in the U.S. But now I am once again treating my taste buds to GROVBRØD and many other hearty wheat and rye breads of Norway! |
