But spring is right around the corner (at least that's what I tell myself) and my breeches are feeling snug!<br /><br />And I am very glad for feedback on the traditional way of making it! I think it is so fun to see how other people do things, try it out, get feedback etc. I will change things up for my own preferences sometimes, but then next time I'll try it slightly different. Good thinking comparing to the anchovy box, I'll have to go back and compare.RuckusButthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760056031442317243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-4843852352242645352010-01-12T13:07:23.546-05:002010-01-12T13:07:23.546-05:00You know, healthy has nothing to do with tradition...You know, healthy has nothing to do with traditional food, lol!<br /><br />You can do it anyway you want of course, RB. <br />I just thought I'd give you some feedback with regard to the traditional way of doing it...and it is a bit difficult to see sizes on photos. I just compared to the box of anchovies.HorseOfCoursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15907659164579327290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-10007301575634229322010-01-11T19:47:06.383-05:002010-01-11T19:47:06.383-05:00You're right, a higher fat content would have ...You're right, a higher fat content would have helped balance things out. I was trying to make it slightly healthier. That is why you should make during the holidays, not after! Good thing I had sour cream! <br /><br />I thought I'd get a comment about the onion, lol. I sliced them instead of chopped so the size and shape mirror that of the potatoes. I admit the last layer looks like they are sliced very big, I was being lazy. The layer below they were more finely sliced. <br /><br />I never peel my potatoes anymore, I love having the peel for taste and nutrients. I thought they looked like the same size as yours (?)RuckusButthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760056031442317243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-41834993773739362832010-01-11T16:00:03.666-05:002010-01-11T16:00:03.666-05:00Hey, you tried it!

How fun!<br /><br />Good you thought about the anchovies, and how nice that IKEA is situated around the world too!! <br /><br />I believe the salty flavour has to do with the fat content of the cream. You need the 35% to balance the anchovies taste.<br />Another factor is the size of the potatoes and onions. Peel the potatoes and cut them thinner next time. Chop the onions in smaller pieces too, so you can distrubute it evenly over the whole surface.<br /><br />But you def need beer!<br />(Pssst. And a small aquavite too!)HorseOfCoursehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15907659164579327290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-51939636477475514462010-01-10T22:05:52.650-05:002010-01-10T22:05:52.650-05:00Lol, I'd do it in a heartbeat!

And I'd do all the farm work you could throw at me, until it was time to prepare dinner that is!RuckusButthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760056031442317243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2146995948798827920.post-28939531697259485512010-01-10T20:59:34.132-05:002010-01-10T20:59:34.132-05:00I was drooling over the stuffed squash and now thi...I was drooling over the stuffed squash and now this. Would you like to move to Tennessee? I wouldn't ask you to do any farm work, just cook, in exchange for living with some handsome retired horses!Melissa-ParadigmFarmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14274830693649851658noreply@blogger.com
