Rømmegrøt

Rømmegrøt is a warm Norwegian porridge recipe, similar to a rich milk pudding, that's delightful with a drizzle of melted butter and a good sprinkling of cinnamon-sugar over the top. Enjoy it as a hot breakfast, side dish, or dessert!

Instructions

  1. Set a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Using a kitchen thermometer, heat milk to 195°F. Stir almost continuously, scraping the bottom of the pan, so the milk does not burn.
  2. While milk is heating, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. While milk is heating, gently melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Turn off heat and hold until milk has reached 195°F.
  4. Once milk temperature has reached 195°F, stir flour mixture into melted butter to form a thick paste. Add this to the heated milk, stirring constantly, until milk starts to boil. Then turn heat down to low and let cook for 5 minutes more, stirring often. The mixture should be smoothed-out and thickened, like a thick pudding. Remove saucepan from heat.
  5. Spoon rømmegrøt into individual bowls. Drizzle warm melted butter over the top and then add a hefty sprinkle of cinnamon-sugar. Enjoy right away!

Notes

  • Adapted slightly from the recipe that Vivian Wensel shared with me in the Sons of Norway kitchen in Fargo, ND. My MIL says this recipe is very similar to the rømmegrøt she has enjoyed all her life.
