Hallo Norweger. Ich bin gerade zum ersten Mal in eurem tollen Land und alles ist neu. Bitte, was ist das? Habe die Wörter durch mehrere Übersetzungs-Apps laufen lassen, aber sie haben alle Kauderwelsch zurückgegeben. Ist das ein Käse? Aber ich glaube, es ist Zucker drin, oder? Es sieht interessant aus, also bin ich neugierig.

It’s cheese based on milk from a grandmother.
It’s not cheese, it’s caramelized milk of goat and cow.
Bestemor!!! Noooooo!!!!
It is brown cheese. Brown cheese is googleable.
It is extra sweet, caramely and with Christmasy spices. India “just like your grandma would have made/liked it”. I think the name is weird, but love the cheese.
It’s brown cheese. A norwegian classic. My favorite is fløtemysost. The one you have there is called bestemorost, directly translated to “grandma cheese”. I think it’s the sweetest kind of brown cheese, because grandma’s are so sweet.
The literal translation is Grandmother Cheese, which is as gibberishy in Norwegian. It’s apparently sweeter than the traditional brown cheese.
Well, we are hardcore on recycling here. Got to do something with all the leftover Grandmas. You are in a country where we got a picture of a kid on our classic canned liver pate.
If you see “ost”, it has something to do with cheese
When making (actual) cheese, the liquid and the sugars (lactose) is removed. Most cultures have thrown it out or fed it to livestock. But we didn’t have many resources in olden times. Fish, barley, and grassy hills and forrests. Cows and sheep was a way to utilise the grassy hills. But with shitloads of free fuel, the woods, we could keep the fire going and the pot boiling for days. So using the whey was labour intensive, and took alot of wood to boil a lot down to a little. But the caramelized lactose was a resource since we could afford using the amounts of firewood. Brown cheese isn’t really cheese at all. But quite tasty when you get used to it
Just got back from Norway last week and didn’t see this, now I feel like I missed out!
Bestem or ost
