How to Cook dishes from Iceland
Iceland is an island in the Atlantic Ocean located between
Europe and
Greenland. The island has many links with Scandinavia,
which began with early settlement by Norwegians in the 9th century.
Some popular Icelandic recipes and dishes include:
- Bjugu - Smoked sausage.
- Fresh fish - The waters around
Iceland are rich with many types of fish, and fresh fish are eaten all
year round. These include
haddock,
halibut,
herring, plaice and
shrimp.
- Hákal - Fermented meat from the basking shark. It has a strong pungent smell and
is a very much an acquired taste.
- Hamborgarhryggur - Salted pork ribs.
- Hangikjöt - Smoked lamb or mutton. It is cut into slices which are eaten on bread,
or eaten with bechamel (white) sauce, green peas, and potatoes.
- Jólagrautur - A traditional dessert eaten at
Christmas. It is made
from rice pudding with raisins, cinnamon and sugar.
- Laufabrauo - A tradition bread, originally from northern Iceland,
but now common throughout the country. It comes in thin round flat cakes which are fried,
and is often eaten during the
Christmas period.
- Skyr - A type of strained fresh cheese that is made from skimmed milk. It is unique to
Iceland. No flavors are traditionally added to skyr, but instead it
is mixed with other foods, such as porridge for breakfast, or with fruit for dessert.
Today, however many commercial manufacturers skyr do flavor their product with berries
or vanilla.
