Sorry, Landwaster, but Damelon's turkey testicle festival still wins in my book.

I originally wrote this in another tread (Which foods do you hate) but edited it out because I haven't actually tried it yet. This tread is more appropriate...
There is a dish I haven't tried yet and it is lambs head. The lamb head is probably ok (grilled like christmas ham) but it is sometimes served with the eye. You are supposed to swallow it with scnapps
. What if you - just by accident - chews on it? And what does it feel like to swallow an eye? Eww.
Lambs head
½ lamb head per person
salt, pepper
rosemary
breadcrums
Skin the heads throughoutly, cut them into halves, wash and scrub (take out the brain). Leave in cold water over night. Boil in salty water til tender. Skin the tounge. Sprinkle the spices and the breadcrums over the halves. Roast crunchy in oven at 225 degrees Celcius, aprox. 20 minutes. Serv with mashed turnips and sallad.

Sweden is full of horrible food it seems...
I think Lambs scull is a traditional dish in Gotland, the largest island in the baltic sea (if you ever go to Sweden you must go there! Week 32 every year is the medevial week, lots of fun stuff there! And the island itself is fantastic). In the south of sweden they eat blood soup and in the north they are said to have salt in the coffe instead of sugar... There is a swedish typ of haggis called pölsa (it is as scary as it sounds). And then there is the rotten herrings - what a stench!
But on the other hand, I do not think I am the right person to point out strange foods since I think most food is strange in one way or another...

One of my friends at work is Polish American and one of their family recipes from the old country is also for blood soup, make with duck blood. She always said that soup at her uncle's farm is what turned her into a vegetarian...

Oh no! Pölsa isn't scary, it's tasty.
No I'm not kidding, I really like it. With potatoes and beetroots. Yum!
About salt in the coffe; I know that some people in Norrbotten (up in the north) put butter in the coffe. It is supposed to be good for sick people.
Hmm I don't know...

What would you choose if you had to, coffe with butter or pölsa, the swedish haggis?

Yuuuk
: coffe with pölsa - could it be worse?
Only people from the north can eat pölsa I think. But then again, I am not the right person to argue. I´d sooner eat pölsa than boiled potatoes anyway...
