Two weeks ago, we featured the first part of our winter nordic feast. This week, the Scandinavian nosh ideas continue, with a sea-inspired menu... Apart
from skiing, Norway is best known for its many fjords -- narrow inlets
of water that cut into the rugged coastline. Some fjords and their
valleys can be miles long and are surrounded by steep, inaccessible
cliff faces. Before the advent of cars and trains, taking a boat from
fjord to fjord was the easiest and safest way to keep contact with
neighboring communities. Unsurprisingly, Norwegians grew to depend
on seagoing transportation and the exploitation of coastal resources.
Nearly every meal in a Norwegian household, from ancient to modern
times, features one or two seafood dishes. Take to the high seas with
this full-on ocean themed menu of Nordic classics! thar she blows!: this way for the recipes
