Title: Norway’s Delight: Dishes and Specialities

Author: Elise Sverdrup

Publisher: Johan Grundt Tanum Forlag (Oslo). Part of the “Tanum’s Tokens of Norway” series.

Publication date: 1957 originally – this is the eighth edition, published in 1972.

Bought: Wish I could remember! I think it was second-hand at our local book fair.

Type: National cuisine

Pages: 84

Notes: none

Fabulously-named dishes: Polar Bear’s Eye (beetroot, onion, raw egg yolk…), Dancing Master’s Soup (appears to be sweet), The Vet’s Nightcap (bread spread with dripping, liver paste and cured meat)

Other useful information contained within: Not much, sadly — it includes a couple of addresses for suppliers who provide Norwegian speciality food within the UK, but I suspect they will long since have changed or closed down.

Where can I get a copy?: There are plenty of editions available on Amazon (including a hardback version)
