Norwegian Food

Pete is from Norway, and wanted us to know what foods are the best to have from his homeland. Here is a list of some of the yummiest (and hardest to pronounce!) foods from Norway.

  • Raspeball This is a heavy, but good, dinner that we eat once every other month. It is made of potatoes that are mashed and shaped as balls with meat inside it. Raspeball is served with bacon, sugar, syrup if you want that (I recommend the sugar when you are going to eat it because sirup and Raspeball is blah).
  • Fårikål This is a meal that is made of cabbage, lamb, salt and pepper which are all boiled together in a big cooking pot. This is a meal that we eat twice a year, but you can buy it at some restaurants, or at a truck stop whenever you want Fårikål.
  • Kjøttkaker This is one of my favorite meals, and we have it every other Sunday. Kjøttkaker is served with potatoes, gravy and lingonberry jam, and you can have other vegetables if you don’t like potato.
  • Lutefisk is a strange meal. They dry fish, and then soak the fish in lye… then steep it. Serve it with bacon, potato and mustard. We eat this before Christmas, but other times during the year because it so good.
  • Smalahove This is a meal we don’t eat anymore here. I have never eaten this, and I’m never going to eat it… even though it is very popular in Norway. The reason that I’m not going to eat it is that the meat is the sheeps head. When you eat this, you have to start with the ear and the eye and work your way down around the jaw.
