the rabbit stew sam and frodo had, it must have been superb considering they hadn't eaten very well at all since Lothlorien. :)

:beer: of course! lol

I think it would be really nice to have been at the banquet in rivendell. I bet the elves are really good chefs after all the time they've had to practice! :)

Oh, and i will endeavour to find out what it tastes like to have "Ash on my tomatoes!" roflmao

I would love to try some nice red meat off the bone-dwarf style, lembas, any other kind of elvish food, and Hobbit cakes and pies. I also wonder if Hobbit tea is any good.

yeah they arent ones tolkien made up but hey some are really good
Cuiel Rilwen
February 20th,2003, 08:35 AM
The lembas sounds really good...tho I'm a bit puzzled by the authors mentioning krum-kake-iron...cuz I thought that was a purely norwegian gadget, and it seems like its not! :elfeek: Is this common to find in kitchens all over the world? I can clearly see how the bread would come out utterly beautiful from it! :thumbs:
Bonos-Girl
February 20th,2003, 03:23 PM
i've never heard of one...but quite a lot of the stuff there i havemn't heard of and most of them are in english!
Cuiel Rilwen
February 20th,2003, 07:56 PM
I found my great- grandmothers krumkake- jern in the back of my closet! BG, I suppose oz/ounces are the same in England as in America. One cup is, according to my dictionary, supposed to be 8 oz in America, and 10 oz in England. Anybody know what nationality the cups in question are?:p
Bonos-Girl
February 21st,2003, 06:14 PM
cups are american! that i do know...i never understood why american oz are different to british oz....weird!
Glarawen
February 21st,2003, 10:34 PM
THey just try to make everything confusing!!!
Cuiel Rilwen
February 21st,2003, 10:50 PM
Cups and oz were a complete mystery to me when I first tried to follow an american recipy, we don't use that at all! Decilitres and litres, grams and kilos only! Well we have teaspoons...!
Glarawen
February 21st,2003, 10:54 PM
maybe u should try emaling them to get the varations

I would like to try lembas or anything Elvish. :rolleyes:
Cuiel Rilwen

Well. I tried the lembas, with the krumkake- iron and all, and when it comes to appearance, they came out very beautiful! For you guys who don't know this gadget, its used to make a special norwegian cookie, (maybe they make this in Sweden as well for all I know!), which when done baking is shaped to a cornet. The iron itself has a beautiful pattern of swirls and spirals, I guess you could say almost elvishlike! The lembas tasted quite good, the consistency was biscuitlike, the taste is semisweet, but fresh because of the orange peel. By the way, I couldn't find the orangeflower- water, so I used a little orangejuice instead. It was allright, saving my hurrahs for something else, though. The looks were better than the taste!
