Righto, will pick that up when I go grocery shopping. Rosti if I can find it.
Oh is that all it is? I melt cheese that way all the time. It just sounds like cottage cheese to me when I hear it referred to as "curds".
The first time Alison and I made rösti, we failed so hard. Give it a go with hash browns though, I'd be most interested in how it works out.
Like I said, can't speak for Quebec, but that's how it's done down here. No idea how authentic it is, though pictures seem to indicate we aren't fucking it up hideously.
