Glossary R
Rødgrød Med Fløde refers to Denmark's fruit dish ; a fruit stew which is made of fresh berries like redcurrants, raspberries and blackcurrants, which are boiled until soft. The juice is sweetened and thickened, and the dish is then served with cream or milk.
This fruit stew is very similar to Rote Grütze which is a popular dessert in Northern part of Germany, particularly Bremen and Hamburg.

A **rub** in culinary contexts refers to a dry mixture of herbs, spices, salts, sugars, and other seasonings applied to the surface of meat, fish, or vegetables before cooking. Unlike marinades, which are liquid-based, rubs form a flavorful crust that enhances texture and depth of taste through caramelization and the Maillard reaction. Their composition varies widely, ranging from simple salt-and-pepper blends to complex regional formulations.
