What's the best way to save rommegrot when its already made?

Question

I just got a rommegrot recipee and i'm not sure how you save it. do you put it in the fridge? how?

Answer 1

Since rommegrot is a cream-based or sour-cream based porridge, popular in Norway, that must be stored properly.

Recipes call for prepared rommegrot to be placed in a container with a lid.  You can the refrigerate it or you can place it in the freezer for long-term storage.

Here is a(nother) receipe for rommegrot:

WESTBY'S SYTTENDE MAI ROMMEGROT

1 quart cream

1 tsp salt

1 cup of flour

1 quarter milk (2% or whole)

Over moderate hear use a heavy kettle to heat the

cream for 15-20 minutes. Use a whip to add the

flour and salt. Continue cooking and beating until

the butter forms. Carefully drain the butter into a

small dish or pitcher. Continue beating as the

cream separates. Heat the milk in a glass pitcher

in the microwave for 5-7 minutes. Add about a

cup of the milk to the cream at a time and whip

until smooth each time. When all the milk is

included continue beeting/whipping for 3-4

minutes (yellowish-cream color). All of this is

done over moderate - never high heat. Then pour

the grot into a dish or storage container and pour

the melted butter over it. Never make more than

a single batch at a time. A double batch fits into a

ice cream pail and freezes fine. Brown sugar and

cinnamon are tasty toppings.
