Omg that looks so great! Even at 8 am. A restaurant in the mountains in Durango Colorado use to serve up complimentary jalapeño cheese rolls and they were the best thing ever. I love bread. Definitely a weakness of mine.

In Sweden we’ve got a dish called Swedish cheesecake. Svensk ostkaka. Mostly seen as a dessert, served with whipped cream and jam. But my mother always served it for simple summer suppers in our house.
It’s made of rennet, wheat flour, eggs, almonds, bitter almond and cream.
As you can hear, not something that I can eat. It used to be my favorite food as a kid. My 9 y/o also loves it. The rest of the family doesn’t. So today when it was only me and the kids we decided that it’ll be a good supper. The 11 y/o got pancakes.
And y’all know my standing point by now. If I like it, there must be a way to make it gluten and dairy free so I can enjoy it. Today I found the perfect recipe to make it. It took hours but the texture and the flavor is so close to the real deal you can get. So today I’m presenting Gluten-free dairy free Swedish cheesecake. The small paper below the foil containers shows how it originally looks.
Taadaa:

Even with my feverish cooking before surgery I realized I had to supplement with some store bought but freshly made soups. Mixed with leftovers. Today’s culinary exploration is this soup with left handed chopped leftover green beans, pearl onions and red potatoes. At least I can still stir right handed!

It looks delicious. And I wish you a quick recovery. Until then it’s always a good practice to do thing’s with “wrong” hand. Personally I do equally with both. Even writing, my 9 y/o is the same, when he gets tired of writing with one hand he just switch to the other one.

Thanks, I tend to agree with you. But I’m not at all ambidextrous. Let’s just say I’m really glad I have a bidet LOL sorry TMI

Wish I could convalesce at your place. I’d kill for a grilled cheese but I don’t dare go in my kitchen until Eric can clean it after work today. Sigh.

I got a shit ton of that Gouda too.
I ordered a pound by mistake (insta cart) and I’m the only one who eats it 
and it’s already been in the fridge almost a week.

I’ve frozen basic, like emmetaler type cheese. The texture suffers some, it’ll be a bit crumbly but taste should be fine if you don’t keep in your freezer until next year…
Edited to add: if you’d have me over, this wouldn’t be a problem. I eat a lot of cheese, gouda is delicious!!!

We aren’t big on freezing food. When we do it usually goes in there to die. We’re bad. And it just doesn’t taste as good. Except spaghetti or lasagna. That works.
And as you can see we eat out too much. This post pandemic is more typical of the wife and my eating habits. It’s what we like to do. I just wish Flag had better restaurants. Might have to move to Scottsdale. 
Wish I could have y’all over

Spaghetti and lasagna are perhaps only things I don’t freeze at all! 
I get what you’re saying tho. We all have our own ways with food. Eating out is very expensive here, so I stick to home cooking most of the time
Wasting good cheese is blasphemy! Could you incorporate that to bread baking? Mac n cheese? Pizza? The world is your cheese my friend.
