Eggcheese from Flekkefjord

Eggeost/Eggcheese, well, the ingredients are fairly harmless, but I'll have to quote Mr. Stephen Fry on this; " I wouldn't suck on it"
Difficulty level; Easy. Time estimated; 15 min

Ingredients:
  • 1 liter of whole milk
  • 400 milliliter of soured milk, kefir or yoghurt
  • 2 tbs of sugar
  • 2 eggs
Topping made simply by mixing a tablespoons of sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon. Double if necessary.

Bring the milk to a boil. Whip up yoghurt, eggs and 2 tbs of sugar, and mix this batter into the simmering milk while stirring. Let the substance simmer slowly until it curdles on the top, and the whey underneath is transparent. Let the whole thing cool down.

Put the curd in a strainer, and let it rest until fairly dry. (It is now Eggeost). Put the eggeost in a nice bowl and top it with cinnamon and sugar.

Serve the Eggeost on waffles or lefser (se dravle recipe)

(The separated whey might well be frozen for later use in breadmaking.)
