Changes from the original

The text is damaged by character recognition: «i hårdkokt eggeplomme» is read as 1 egg yolk and «i teskje smør» as 1 tsp butter. The tomatoes are neither peeled nor cooked in the original; this is left to the cook.

Note on Modernised

Teksten er skadet av tegngjenkjenning: «i hårdkokt eggeplomme» er lest som 1 eggeplomme og «i teskje smør» som 1 ts smør. Tomatene er ikke skrelt eller kokt i originalen; det er overlatt til kokken.
