It can certainly be made on stovetop, too, then you should double the quantities and use a heavy but small pot.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224478760304481724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-88190656703690632452011-12-07T17:17:43.888+01:002011-12-07T17:17:43.888+01:00Anne, I got absolutely mesmerized by this recipe, ...Anne, I got absolutely mesmerized by this recipe, and even pinned it to make sure I don't forget about it.<br /><br />I am a bit worried about the "boiling too long" part, though, since I've never done anything similar to this recipe <br /><br />any tips on how to visually judge when it's ready?<br /><br />(nice to have found your blog, I'm learning a lot!)SallyBRhttp://bewitchingkitchen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-15953985642184655362011-12-07T14:24:56.658+01:002011-12-07T14:24:56.658+01:00sure, I have a lot of traditional swedish recipes ...sure, I have a lot of traditional swedish recipes in the drop-down menu to the right.
