THE
NOSE BURNER ¤
While the warmth and heat of summer and spring are distant memories and present
hopes here in Norway, one pleasant and quick way to warm up is with a Trondheim
Nose Burner. While this may sound like a wrestling hold, it's really the name
of a soup. A very simple to make meat soup. I had grown up with this soup
and we had always just called it by the generic name of 'meat soup'. I was
later informed by friends that it has a by far more distinguished and colorful
name.
In any case it's easy to make. The heat in the name comes of course from the
temperature and the generous addition of pepper for seasoning.
