Norwegian Cheeses and Idaho “Wingin’ It Sauce”

18 Wednesday Jan 2017

Posted by Bob and Robin in BBQ Rubs, BBQ Sauce, Cheese, Chevre, Oma and Popie's Sauces, What's For Dinner?, Wing Sauce

Ekte Gjetost, gjetost, Wing Sauce, wingin' it


No. I don’t think together. But the cheese is awesome – just don’t ask me to pronounce it – and the Wing Sauce is sweet, yet spicy. A wonderful addition to any table. But first, the cheese.

 (L) Gtetost and (R)

(L) Gjetost and (R) Tine Ekte Gjetost

Gjetost is a Norwegian cheese made from the whey of cow and goat milk. “… Gjetost is an artless cheese. It has no crystals, no shards, no holes, no rind, no mold. It is not smudged with ash nor washed with Cognac. Caves do not age it.

In fact, gjetost (pronounced YEH-toast) is more like fudge than cheese. A product of Norway, it is made by boiling the whey left over from traditional cheese production. It is stirred and condensed over heat until reduced to one-quarter its original volume. The sugars in the lactose caramelize, and the cheese becomes thick enough to pour into rectangular molds. The finished gjetost emerges from its supermarket wrap squeaky clean, with an all-body tan and shiny creases on its face. Its semifirm compact texture, which bears a trace of peanut butter’s sullen mouth feel, has a rich salty-sweet caramel finish.
To earn the classification gjetost, this cheese must contain at least 10 percent goat’s milk whey (in Norwegian, gje means goat). The remaining milk may come from cows.
Gjetost made with a combination of goat and cow milk and the odd drop of cream (sold in this country under the brand name Ski Queen) is milder than Ekte gjetost, which is produced from 100 percent goat’s milk whey.” [NY Times]

Ekte Gjetost cheese is primarily all goat milk cheese, or in this case, the whey of the milk. “… Geitost or Gjetost (meaning “goat’s cheese”). Varieties that do not contain any cow’s milk are called Ekte Geitost (“true goat’s cheese”). Technically, the name “true goat’s cheese” is misleading, since goat cheese such as the French chèvre) is relatively uncommon in Norway, and is commonly called Hvit geitost (“white goat’s cheese”) to avoid confusion.” {Wikipedia}

“Gjetost Cheese History
Gjetost Cheese originated in the Gudbrandsdalen valley of Norway over one hundred years ago. Gjetost has always been sweet like butterscotch with a dense, rich texture. Gjetost is formed into rindless squares or cylinders, and is best when sliced wafer thin and enjoyed open-faced on Norwegian flatbread served with fresh fruit. It is no wonder children are drawn the taste of this unique, sweet-like-fudge cheese. Often enjoyed as a breakfast cheese in Norway, Gjetost also makes an excellent snack and is the perfect dessert cheese.

This unique Norwegian brown cheese is also known as Brunost, which is simply Norwegian for Brown Cheese. The Ski Queen variety is a blend of cow and goat’s milk, whereas the Ekte Gjetost Cheese from Norway is made from 100% goat’s milk. Gjetost is packed with energy and is extremely tolerant of temperature fluctuations. Because of these benefits, Gjetost is a preferred snack for Norwegians skiiers, who pack it in their backpacks and snack on it while on the trails. This is where the Ski Queen brand name comes from, and may be one of the secrets to the international success of Norwegian cross-country skiiers.” [Igourmet]

 Oma and Popies Wing Sauce - Wingin It made in Kuna, Idaho

Oma and Popie’s Wing Sauce – Wingin It

made in Kuna, Idaho

“Oma and Popie’s Wing Sauce (and soon to be MORE) is evidence of our love of dive bars and chicken wings. It represents a journey across several states starting with “25 cent wings” on Tuesday nights at the Oasis in Twin Falls, ID to “you call these wings” at Jeremiah Bull Frogs in Topeka, KS to “who you kiddin Mic Ultra isn’t a $1.50 domestic, boy are you luck you have the best wings in two” at the Spillway in Bowling Green, KY with many stops in between.
We found that although their sauces had different names, they pretty much are the same. So we appointed ourselves as wing experts and hit the kitchen to come up with a sauce like no other.
Given the enthusiasm from those in our wing circle, we were convinced we had something special. So we headed to #IdahoHome to start this saucy adventure.
We make every effort to source REAL ingredients as close to home as possible. There are no artificial flavors, no artificial colors, no unpronounceable chemical preservatives, no gluten, and absolutely no high fructose corn syrup.” [FaceBook] For more information try calling (208) 867-4594 or email at OmaandPopiesgmail.com. I had problems connecting with their website.

Their products include Wing Sauces: Wingin’ It – Original Sweet & Spicy, Ja Makin’ Me Crazy – Jerk Spices, Drunk Uncle – Brown Sugar & Bourbon and Hawt Mess – A four Pepper blend of Guajillo, Cayenne, Habanero and Jalapeño!
And for the more adventuresome, Spice Blends: Ja Makin’ Me Crazy Rub, Nashville Hot Chicken, Hot Chili Sauce, Mico-Brew Cheeses, Ja Makin’ Me Crazy Rub, Nashville Hot Chicken, Hot Chili Sauce and Mico-Brew Cheeses.

Have fun and I do like the sauce pictured here. Not too spicy, just a little heat. Habanero and Ghost Peppers are not my thing!

sunchokes


‘Tis the season for that infamous burger. Here are some suggestions that you may like. Have fun with these. Most of the ingredients for the recipes listed below, can be found locally in Boise – Desert Mountain Farms for beef products, Acme Bakeshop for superb burger buns, Purple Sage and True Roots for vegetable products. If in Boise, check out the Boise Farmers Market.
3 Burgers Graphic

From Burgers Outdoor Grilling, here is the carmelized onion recipe.

Red Wine Caramelized Onions

Recipe adapted from Angie Mar, The Beatrice Inn, New York, NY
Makes 1½ cups

Ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 lb (2 medium) yellow onions, thinly sliced
1 c Cabernet Sauvignon, divided
2 tbsp sugar, divided
sea salt and freshly ground black Tellicherry pepper

Directions:
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until translucent and lightly caramelized, 20 minutes. Add half of the wine and half of the sugar, and cook until the wine has reduced and the onions have caramelized even further, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the remaining wine and sugar, and repeat the process until the wine has evaporated and the onions have caramelized even further, 6 to 8 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.

And here is one for Housemade Beet Chup, a sweeter condiment. Roasted beets are blended with apple cider vinegar for a sauce that gives the same sweetness as your typical bottle of ketchup but with a bit more tang. The beetchup – like the name variation? – sings when paired with a burger, cheddar cheese and good crunchy iceburg lettuce on a soft roll from Acme Bake Shop here in Boise. (They can be found on Facebook at Acme Bakeshop or at the Boise Farmers Market, every Saturday 9am – 1pm at 10th and Grove in Boise.)

Beetchup

Recipe adapted from Sandy Dee Hall, Black Tree, New York, NY
Makes 1½ cups

Ingredients:
1 lb (2 medium) beets
1 tbsp olive oil
sea salt and freshly ground black Tellicherry pepper
5 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1½ tbsp sugar

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 500º. Layer 2 large pieces of aluminum foil on a clean work surface and place the beets in the center. Rub with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Crimp the foil to seal and roast in the oven until tender, 1 hour. Let cool, then once cool enough to handle, peel and quarter. Transfer the roasted beets to a blender with the remaining ingredients and purée until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

How about a tangy sunchoke sauce? Turmeric-stained sunchokes add a bright tartness to this creamy sauce, already with a zing from hot sauce. Slather the pickled sunchoke sauce on a white bun that envelopes a patty topped with American cheese, lettuce and tomato.

Pickled Sunchoke Relish

Recipe adapted from John Amato, Little Jack’s Tavern, New York, NY
Makes 1 cup

Ingredients:
½ c apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp sugar
½ tbsp sea salt
½ tsp coriander seeds
¼ tsp celery seeds
¼ tsp yellow mustard seeds
½ tsp ground turmeric
8 oz (4 large) sunchokes, peeled and roughly grated

Directions:
In a small saucepan, combine all the ingredients, except the sunchokes. Bring to a boil, then pour over the grated sunchokes. Let cool completely.

Pickled Sunchoke Burger Sauce

Recipe adapted from John Amato, Little Jack’s Tavern, New York, NY
Makes 1¾ cup

Ingredients:
1 c mayonnaise
⅓ c ketchup
⅓ c drained pickled sunchoke relish
2 tsp hot sauce
1 tsp sea salt
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp lemon juice
1 garlic clove, finely grated

Directiions:
In a medium bowl, stir all the ingredients together.

And if you are really into the Burger World and need to only make your own, here is a recipe from The Tasting Table, Homemade Burger Blend. Have fun!

Beef Burger Patties

Recipe from the Tasting Table Test Kitchen
Yield: Six 6-ounce burgers Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes

focaccia, pork tenderloin


BobAndRobin_Nov2009_1_Pizzalchik_PhotoAn interesting and adventuresome dinner tonight. Here is the recipe: Pork Tenderloin with Rhubarb BBQ Sauce and an interesting side to this BBQ sauce, it also goes with chicken and beef. We had it with pork tenderloin and it was fantastic. The recipe calls for oven roasting the tenderloin for 15 minutes. Ours was big enough that it probably should have gone 25 to 30 minutes. You too, may also have to extend the oven time. Enjoy the photo and you can Left-Click the photo to see it enlarged. The recipe is also a permanent entry to the Recipe File listed above. Cheers.

Robin had been asking – in her soft and gentle way – for chicken wings. And believe it or not, I don’t know where to find any in Boise where one can purchase a “bucket” of them. I know there has to be a place, I just don’t know where. I can see another assignment coming up. Anyway, I decide to make some. And here is the Recipe that I came up with. This recipe is also posted in the Recipe File as listed above. Try it and see what you think. It is really easy to do. The photo here is the end result. Left-Click and view this full screen. And the casserole dish? A Pampered Chef. They are awesome baking dishes and they carry a Lifetime Warrantee. Don’t be in the kitchen without one … or two …. or three. Enjoy!

Birthday Dinner For Marnie

10 Monday Oct 2011

Posted by Bob and Robin in BBQ Sauce, Party Time, Photos, Photos By: Bob Young, Tomatoes, What's For Dinner?

≈ Leave a comment


October 12th is Marnie’s birthday, but because both she and Mac have to work, she decided to have her dinner this past Sunday. One of the few days this week that we could see the sun and were able to sit outside without getting wet from the rain. So Mac made BBQ BabyBack Ribs that were really tender and juicy- Great!

Robin and I put together this platter of slice Fall tomatoes. Dixie Golden Giant – the gold tomatoes; A very large orange beefsteak that produces fruit very well. 1 – 1.5 pound tomatoes are great for slicing or diced in salads or salsa. Aunt Ruby’s German Green – the green tomatoes that are really sweet; A sweet delicious flavor with a hint of spice. 12-16 ounce fruits have a light green skin with a dark green interior when fully ripe. These look great when sliced on a plate with some dark red tomatoes and Black Krim – the deep, almost blood red, red tomato; Another black variety …fruits are a super dark red with greenish tops. Sweet and tasty flavor. All of these are Heirloom tomatoes and they are awesome. Sprinkle a little fresh chopped basil on them with some coarse sea salt and that could be dinner!


Bob made Corn Pie – Marnie’s favorite summer dish from the last of the corn. Here is everything plated. It was a scrumptious dinner. For Dessert Marnie got a Key Lime Pie and a Banana Cream Pie. Add to that a cup of good coffee, and ………. well, you get the idea. Happy Birthday, Marnie!! Thanks to Margaret and Chris for joining us.

BBQ Rum Sauce

Source and Adapted From: Derrick Riches, About.com

This sauce is based on a basic tomato style barbecue sauce and then gets a kick from a little rum. You won’t taste the rum (much) but it works excellently to combine the other flavors and enhance what you put it on. This BBQ sauce is great on BBQ Ribs.

Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:
2 8-ounce cans Roasted Tomato Sauce
1 8-ounce can Green Chilies (medium heat)
½ Onion, chopped
½ c Brown Sugar
⅓ c Dark Rum
2 T Vinegar
2 cloves Garlic, minced
1 T Molasses
1 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T Olive oil
1 T Paprika

Preparation:
Pour olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Saute until opaque. Add other ingredients except the rum. Mix well. Bring to a light boil then remove from heat. Pour in rum and stir until incorporated. When the sauce has cooled purée in a blender or with a hand blender until smooth.

In the recipe, its says that this sauce is great on BBQ Ribs. Well, here is a link from about.com that will give you some recipes for BBQ Ribs and Sauces. Enjoy!
