Today's Special

Also in Östersund I found somebody willing to eat my food :-) So I created a menu for gonna-be-vegetarian Patrik, my couchsurfing host, and me.

Today I inverted the usual sequence of courses a little bit: we started with a rich plate of starters and ended with a light main course.


husmanskost deluxe: bread with "röd getost" cheese, ginger-garlic butter, capers, curry-mustard-paste and roasted garlic - served on the piggy chopping board we bought in the loppis today






main course: roasted curry-rosemary vegetables and rice








Talking about Swedish food: they have a quite nice tradition here: going to meet some friends for a "fika" - a quick coffee and some sweets or any other small food. Yesterday we started somewhere after midnight (remember, it's never dark here), had a short car ride (5o kilometers is nothing in Sweden) and went to a friend's summer cottage to have some beers, tea and home-made cookies. I really enjoyed it :-) I think I should import this tradition into Switzerland...
