Recipe of the day

Loosely translated from the Householdbook by J.S.Lindal 1947
A book no home should be without. And no Lady of the house can call herself a true Lady of the house until she has studied it from cover to cover.
Religiously.

Leg Cheese
Sheep legs are to be singed over a fire, all hairs should dissappear, you need an iron in the fire for hairremoval between the toes . Legs to be soaked in saltwater, scraped and then rinsed many times in clean water. Then they are boiled in slightly salted water, until the bones fall off. Then taken out and all bones removed. Meat should be squeezed, while squeezing add slowly the broth. To the cheese you should add spices, salt, pepper, cloves, according to taste. The cheese should be kneaded until it has reached a consistency, then put in a moist cloth and pressed overnight, then cut and pickled.

Yumm..........
