Hello Tim,
.. toilet paper and what else? ;-)
Sigh!
What's with this weird US toilet paper obsession? Whenever there is a
cricies of any kind, they all storm to the nearby supermarket and fights
like their lives depended on it, emptying the shelves as fast as
possible.
It simply makes no sense to me. But then again, I have a bidThet at home
and
uses about one roll of toilet paper per year -- usually used up by
foreign
visitors who prefer spreading their shit around between their buttocks
with a handful of paper rather than washing it away with the bidThet.
If you go on a cracker diet you have no need for paper OR a bidet. You can just use a whisk broom!
Tim. You are talking about a guy who loves eating fermented rotten
fish. Herring, in particular. Especially on Tunnbrod (rye crackers).
Swedes call it surströmming.
Here's a recipe -
1 can of surströmming
1 packet of Tunbröd
potatoes
1-2 red onions
1 bunch of cloves
1 bunch of dill
sour cream
aquavit (to wash it down)
Instructions:
1. open can (be careful, the rotten fish are still fermenting
and may explode when exposed to air.
2. gut and fillet the surströmming. yes, you get the whole thing
in the can. guts and all.
3. boil the potatoes and add the dill to water and salt.
4. prep the toppings. dice red onions and chives. slice potatoes
into slices.
5. assemble the fish. butter up your toast/bread/Tunbröd and
top with sour cream.
can wash it down with aquavit (optional), a favorite drink.
Surströmming is so explosive, and smelly, that it has been banned
on most commercial airline flights. Which makes it a bit difficult
to find outside of Sweden. But it is available, and can be ordered
online, and delivered to your doorstep anywhere in the USA.
It is best to store this stuff in the refrigerator, as the can
kind of bulges as the rotten herring continue to ferment in the
can. At some point, the can will explode if left out on an open
shelf, and it would be a real mess to clean up. I mean, you might
not ever be able to get rid of the smell.
Crawfish season is almost here in Louisiana. Best time of the year.
If not for that pandemic, which has wiped out all the parades for
this coming Mardi Gras. But it won't wipe out our crawfish season.
No way. We love those orange critters. Pinch da tails and suck da
heads. Yum-Yum.
