Beer Battered Rye Crisp

September 6, 2017 By Therese 2 Comments

Beer Battered Rye Crisps


These Beer Battered Rye Crisp are my second post on my Nordic Supper event which you can read more about here.

Flatbreads from the Nordic region are so diverse where some are flakey and thin- while others are thicker and crunchy. Some made purely of- and some with all the delicate seeds you can imagine. They also vary in shape where Finland often put a sizeable hole in the midle, for stringing on long poles near the stove to dry and to keep for months (and in the old days to keep the rats from eating their breads).

The taste of these crisps will vary slightly depending on the type of beer and bread you are using- so use this amazing time to experiment with the ingredients and the topping.

These Rye Crisp are originates from Ålesund in Norway and are one of a kind. The taste of beer and sourdough in these crisps pairs beautifully with cheese, cured meat or fish.

This is a perfectly good way to use stale bread that you got lying around- Freeze the bits until you have enough to make these beer battered rye crisps!

Nordic Cuisine

The best way to understand the Nordic region’s food culture is more than a trip to Ikea- it’s understanding our traditions, our nature and our people.

Nordic cuisine has never been extravagant, nor has it been fancy- it can best be described with the words of my favorite cafe in Oslo; “By serving a simple slice of waffle with strawberry jam and brown cheese with a cup of coffee on the side”. Nordic cuisine is known to be simple and with few ingredients- ingredients from the areas where we live and the lands surrounding us- like the woods, the sea, the mountains and the fjords. A blend between fresh, seasonal and preserved flavors- often put in jars and stored away in a dark pantry somewhere on a farm- only to be enjoyed and devoured throughout the seasons.

Food is one of the most important things we have in life- and we should all have enough knowledge about food to be able to live a long and happy life. It should not be a burden- nor should it be boring. Food should be something that makes you thrive to be able to live the life you want, it should bring people together in the most wonderful way and last but not least- it should be fun.
