Bygggrautur með fjallagrösum

Barley groats with Icelandic moss


Ingredients for 2 people

180 g coarsely ground barley
20 g Icelandic moss
200 g sour milk
200 g water
1 pinch of coarse sea salt
2 Tbsp butter


Preparation

Cut the dry Icelandic moss into small pieces (be careful, it can sting a lot!)...


...and pour boiling water over it to remove the bitter substances from the moss. Then pour it through a sieve and collect the chopped Icelandic moss.

In a large pot, mix the coarsely ground barley with the sour milk and water. Add the Icelandic moss and a pinch of salt...


...and bring to the boil, stirring constantly, then cook and stir until the barley has become soft.


Remove the pot from the heat and let it simmer for another 10 minutes.

Finally add the butter...


...stir everything thoroughly and then serve traditionally with hard cheese and black pudding (" blóðmör ")!

By the way, things are particularly good for us
tasted with fried black pudding!
