In my family, nothing says the holidays quite like krumkake. It’s a crispy, Norwegian cookie that’s rolled into a tube, and filled with cream or Danish pudding (not pictured).
\n
\nI actually own a krumkake iron, but I didn’t fire it up for the holidays because it was packed away in a storage unit beneath a pile of ex-girlfriend stuff. Here it is, along with the conical mold used for shaping the hot cookies while they’re still bendable.
\n
\nNote the fine Scandinavian rosemaling waffle design.
\n<\/p>\n

Another signature family food, harking back to the days on the farm in South Dakota, the oven-fried pancake. It’s also called oven pancake fluff.
\n
\n
\nIt’s called "oven-fried" because you bake it in a pan that already has a full stick of melted margarine. Then, to eat it, you slather it with more margarine. Or jam, but why skimp on a good thing?
\n<\/p>\n

I swear, the Fiesta grocery has greatly improved the amount of variety in my life. Here’s a series of impulse purchases:<\/p>\n

Head cheese:
\n<\/p>\n

Hawthorne apples, which have about five pits per fruit and taste kinda like pears:
\n<\/p>\n

From the "elotes" stand outside the Fiesta:
\n
\nMy front teeth aren’t quite solid enough to eat the corn off the cob, but it’s still pretty delicious in a cup, each kernel cooked to a plump al dente. Served with cayenne powder and mayo.<\/p>\n

There’s a new taco stand in my neighborhood. I don’t like the salsa as much as I did with the previous taco stand, but the barbacoa is delicious, tender, and fatty.
\n<\/p>\n

I finally passed by Jalapeno Joe’s on Airport at a time when they were open and I was hungry. The two-taco chicharron plate was under $5.
\n
\nI imagine that the sloughed face-skin of Nazis staring into the Ark of the Covenant would be every bit as tender and juicy as these delicately stewed pig-skins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
