Btw: Thanks for the snow report and have fine while you have it! I envy you as we have had to little of it in Oslo this winter.
A little bit like sheep's maybe, but then again I'm a Norwegian :lol:
It reminds me of when we had fun making marzipan animals when I was young.
I'm new here so at first: hello from Norway. As I love seafood, I thought this was a great post to start responding too: well, I know its not actually seefood, but for sure it looks delicious!
If you like to know a bit about food traditions from Norway, feel free to dig in:

Choir boys maybe? I don't know what they are, but they're pretty flippin' cute.
I love the south and I love oxford - especailly Square Books oh and the meat and 3 at Ajax.
For some reason they all look obscene to me...
This reminds me of my childhood! My parents would cut up hot dogs just like these and I loved it. I thought it was just a Filipino thing :)
I know many Colombians who regularly fry up hotdogs, or chorizos cut in exactly this same pattern. I must say a deep fried sausage with its crispy exterior and ultra juicy inside is a pleasure I too often partake of.
I've seen hot dogs deep fried in woks and cut up in all sorts of decorative manner throughout many countries in Asia.
Love the pictures. I grew up in Russia and hotdogs were often on the menu. To make them more fun, my parents would cut the ends of the hotdogs in quarters (not going all the way to the middle; just making a deep x cut) and then sauteeing them in a pan. Good memories :)
By the way, I saw your article in WA Post about cooking for one. I cook for myself quite a bit and have a bunch of easy ideas on my blog: check it out!
These dogs have been cut much like most Central Europeans cut sausages before they impale them to cook over a campfire. It was dusk the first time I encountered this practice and I thought everyone was roasting frogs!
