Summer is celebrated, worshipped even, across Scandinavia.
Long dark months book-end intense summers with around the clock daylight. This created a cuisine bursting with fresh fruit and vegetables for a few light filled months before curing, salting and pickling fruit, vegetables and fish to last through the many cold months. Baked goods based on rhubarb and strawberries remain favourites in mid summer.
A cool climate favoured certain lactic bacteria and gave rise to a wide range of soured dairy products which have not only remained firm favourites but are enjoying a revival as gut health awareness rises.
