I also flipped it and cooked both sides and that might have been the reason why they were so dry.<br /><br />Like most viking foodstuffs it's hard to figure out much about it other than it was consumed... but one of the more plausible recipes, for sure. <br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />-JohnJohn K.http://mikillvidrland.orgnoreply@blogger.com
