Rommegrot???, Member Schwartzbauer

Sorry but I am and grew up with my Norwegian Grandmother making this-and my mother does it now. They would be HORRIFIED that this is being made in the microwave!! Should be baked in the oven in a water bath for 30-40 min at 325 Degrees. Tradition you know.....Peace
