A starter recipe from “Recipes the Modern Pabst-ett Way”
published by Pabst Corporation in 1931

Pabst-ett Deviled Eggs / Pabst-ett Fylte Egg

Pabst-ett was a cheese prodused by Pabst brewery during Prohibition. Many breweries turned to alternative pruducts back then.  After Prohibition ended in 1933, Pabst sold the cheese business off to Kraft who continued to produce Pabst-ett cheese until at least the late 1940’s. If you want to try your hand at this recipe, use any cheese to your taste you think might go well with the rest of the recipe ingredients.

Bakewell Tart / Bakewell Terte

An afternoon tea classic  found on chatelaine.com
Bakewell Tart / Bakewell Terte

Tradition has it that the layering in Bakewell tart (in this case, a sweet, buttery filling over huckleberry jam) was a mistake that caught on. Served with whipped cream and fresh berries, this classic British confection is a proper dessert, or perfect for high tea. This dish is part of the pub fare on the menu at many pubs.

Baked Potato Variations / Bakt Potet Variasjoner

An appatizer/lunch recipe found in “Cappelens Kokebok”
published in  1995

Baked Potato Variations / Bakt Potet Variasjoner

Baking is a great way to cook potatoes. They can be eaten as regular boiled potatoes, but can also be served as an appetizer or main course together with suitable accessories. You should choose quite large potatoes, but it is also possible to bake smaller ones. Mealy varieties are best suited. Note that it is not a good idea to wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil. They get a much better taste and texture without.

Sherry Waffles / Sherryvafler

A filled cookie recipe found in “Det Nye Kjøkkenbiblioteket”
(The New Kitchen Library) published in 1971

Sherry Waffles / Sherryvafler

From the recipe text: It can not be repeated too often that you are fairly well covered for surprises in the form of suddenly arriving guests if you in the cookie jar have finished baked cookies that just need a quick whipped cream or the like to make you able to serve something really nice – such as some sherry waffles.

As you can see from the text above, Scandinavian housewive’s greatest fear back in the late sixties and early seventies was to be caught red handed by unannounced guests without some tempting goodies to serve with the coffee. Life was hard back then I can tell you, I was there – Ted 😉

Peshawari Naan / Naan fra Peshawar

A recipe for filled naan found on goodtoknow.co.uk
Peshwari naan_goodtoknow_post

This Peshawari naan recipe is simple and makes a great Indian cuisine side dish. They only take 8 min. to cook and complete any classic Indian dish. These delicious breads are traditionally stuffed with a fruit and nut mixture then baked quickly in a tandoor oven – an Indian clay oven that reaches very high temperatures.

They will cook just as well in a hot domestic oven but make sure they are placed on a preheated baking sheet so they start to puff up immediately (slow cooking will make them tough and leathery). They are best eaten warm from the oven brushed with melted butter or ghee and with a sprinkling of fresh chopped coriander if liked.

The First Lady’s Medallions / Bispinnens Medaljonger

An old-fashioned recipe from “Norsk Ukeblads Store Bakebok” (Norsk Ukeblad’s Large Book on Baking) published by Ernst G Mortensen’s Forlag in 1984bispinnens medaljonger_post
The First Lady’s medallions are glazed pastry with butter cream filling. They can be finished well before serving.

As the coffee powder in the filling give the cakes an “adult” taste, it is perhaps not a good idea to bake these for a child’s birthday party – Ted  😉
