The christmas party

[frualeydis]

Nylöses christmas party, which was held at bippimalin's new house was a really pleasant occasion. We had good food, sang some and gorged ourselves with home made marzipan. I had made herbelade, except that I used smoked pork, and it was really delicious. I also made applemoyse for the first time. It was really good and I will make it again.

There will be pictures eventually at Nylöse's site, but for now I will only show you one picture.



You can see armillary carving bread and the back of herzeloyde's head. The woman in front is our baroness, Solveig.

The applemoyse sounds really good -- but what is damask water?

So it's name was applemoyse... I thought you said Äppelmojs since that's what it looked like. ;)

did you have any herring?... I had to ask *I'm Danish lol*

Nope, not this time. The typical swedish pickled herring doesn't go back longer than the 18th century I believe. We have a swedish recipie for herring "salad" from the very late 16th century, but nobody made it this time. The "salad" is made from salted herring that has been watered to get the salt out of it, fresh oregano, olive oil and vinegar.
