ELEMENTS OF
Nordic Diet: Using Local and Organic
Food to Promote a Healthy Lifestyle. "
These books offer an argument for
the health and taste benefits of a diet
based on the produce, berries, fish and
wild game with which the climates of
Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Finland
and Sweden (not to mention many
areas of North America) are blessed.
When a diet is based almost exclusively
upon local food sources, the
foraging, fishing and hunting skills that
came naturally to our grandparents'
generation are paramount. Hahnemann
encourages us to dust off our gathering
baskets and search for native berries
and wild greens: " I have seen ground
elder in Central Park, so it grows in
North America. Stinging nettles can
also be used for many things. "
Wild game-boar, reindeer, and
moose-plays a key role in the new Nordic
diet. There is still a strong hunting
culture in Scandinavia, and Hahnemann
notes that game is also available at some
meat markets or on the Internet.
Another component is the use of
cold-loving grains like rye, oats, barley
and spelt. Perhaps the most intriguing
sections of Hahnemann's books are the
chapters she devotes to baking with
these traditional Scandinavian grains.
" Food has to be joy, " Hahnemann
says. " Good quality bread made with
both spelt, rye and other grains is a
joy. When I was growing up, I was
told you had to eat your rye bread before
you could have the white bread. "
Despite an emphasis upon the
creative use of fresh, seasonal ingredients,
the new Nordic cuisine hasn't
entirely replaced traditional Scandinavian
smoking, pickling and preservation
techniques. Hahnemann points out
that these methods are still important
to bring out the flavor and prolong
the season of omega-rich seafood like
salmon, mackerel and herring.
As a blend of the old and the new,
of traditional food preparation methods
and of modern culinary innovation,
the new Nordic diet has captured
the imagination of many of us
who wonder why we pay good money
for flash-frozen tilapia when lake
trout and salmon are jumping a few
miles away. And the culinary principles
that Redzepi, Meyer and their coterie
spearheaded are capturing world
titles as well: Scandinavians swept the
