THE FOOD OF EIDFJORD, NORWAY

Thursday, September 11, 2014
Fish Soup is the all-around comfort food of cold Norway, eaten with rustic, hard and chewy wheat-nut rolls and "brown" cheese from mountain goats. Fish bone stock becomes milky; adding root vegetables, onions and herbs clears and draws out its flavor, binding the salmon and cod's vitality like forest presence to glacial seas. 


Norway is a beautiful Nature. The interior of this land is ocean, and because of the fjords lush rocks rise above the country. The food of Norway is an evocation of what is caught here, is gathered, and is herded. There is light-sense in the fish, acorn and pine in the bread, and thunderstorms over the barn.
