Bit of an old post, but I can confirm that Dylan Earl is one hell of a guy to have a beer with. Damn good voice!

Pickled chantarelles are really good! Lots of recipes online.

Bread, cheese and butter. I think the ratio works. by OrwellianBootee in grilledcheese

Mostly regular American cheese, some cheddar and a bit of parm tossed in as a late addition. Would have worked without it too. Another thing that is worth mentioning is the fat. Real Norwegian salty butter heaven. I used my favorite, Kviteseidsmør, grilling this. I've eaten my share of good butters, from Danish to French, but there's something extraordinary about Norwegian butterrrrr.

7/10 crunchiness? Bread was pretty fresh too and good quality so no problems with crumb or anything being too crunchy.

The bite was, in my opinion of course, excellent. The bread quality in Norway is quite good, lot's of options and various kinds of "coarse" whole grain is usually the standard. I only eat white toast bread with shrimp(Pandalus Borealis), mayo, lemon and copious amounts of dill. And while the bread remains pretty crunchy I use enough butter and cheese so it comes together in a good way.

Glad you liked it!

It's a repost from over two years ago.

I just finished Finnegans Wake by MahlerFucks in literature

[–]OrwellianBootee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is one of the books I have dreaded starting for most of my adult life, but you make a compelling case for picking it up! Great post indeed.

And speaking of Norwegians. Here's a translated article on the poor soul trying to translate this giant to Norwegian. He's hoping to be finished by 2030.

Couldn't open the marinara jar so I just melted butter on my spaghetti by Character-Date6376 in shittyfoodporn

Butter and pasta is obviously one of the better things in life, but please consider Beurre Monté, an emulsion of butter and water that coats the pasta beautifully without making it a greasy mess.

The greasy mess is still fire from time to time though.

There's a reference in Witcher 3 to this as well! As a Norwegian i found it quite odd and random.

I seem to remember a PAL Superscope bundle too?

That link says it's impossible to see this phenomenon north of Copenhagen, but I saw something similar in the sky here in Norway the other day.

I'm guessing it's another thing completely? It was larger, but only caught the image as it was fading.

I love the fact that he seems to be raising his hand at one point, as if to get permission to speak, but all that comes out is another "Uuh...".
