RODGROD MED FLODE (RED BERRY DESSERT WITH CREAM)
This recipe came from my Grandmother Johansen, she was a wonderful old-school cook. I learned basically to cook from her on my summer vacations there as a little girl. I still remember how she prepared this summer dish with such care and pride. 'Velbekomme' as we say in Denmark.

RODGROD MED FLOD
This recipe is from an old "Cooking for Today Magazine", published by Good Housekeeping in 1973. The recipe features in a section of Scandinavian recipes. I have no idea what Rodgrod Med Flod means, but at a guess its to do with the red berries in used in the recipe. Personally I'm not to sure about the potato flour ingredient: I'm sure it's fine, but..... Would another kind of flour do instead? I expect you've worked out by now that I've not made this; I'm posting it for Zaar World Tour 2005. I'm afraid the 'Time to Make' is guesswork.

Tips:
- To ensure the smoothest texture, use a fine-mesh sieve to strain the lingonberry sauce before serving.
- If you don't have lingonberries, you can substitute another type of red berry, such as cranberries or raspberries.
- For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk in the sauce.
- If you're short on time, you can use store-bought whipped cream instead of making your own.
- Garnish the dessert with fresh berries or mint leaves for a pop of color.
