Viking Feast

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago
Any idea what Vikings eat? Lots of meat for sure and in general, judging by my own experience, lots of everything really.

We had this traditional King’s Feast for two at Harald’s in Helsinki, Finland.

The feast featured three giant platters, hot and cold starters, then a selection of mixed grill and last but not least many hot and cold desserts.

The starters celebrate locally sourced food including wild boar, red deer, steak tartare, marinated salmon and cod, perch mousse and Baltic herring of course.

You better go easy on the starters so you don’t miss out on the elk sausage, slow cooked reindeer shoulder, BBQ pork ribs and chicken breast. The sauces were so delicious, with the wisdom sauce being my favourite together with a tomato based rhubarb jam.

The dessert shield treated us to classic local puddings including potato meringue and lingonberry posset. The burnt butter and pine nut ice cream was certainly unique, like a MasterChef invention test sort of creation which tasted like a surprisingly refreshing smoked cheese. Being so full we even invented a new pudding: a miniature version of a pancake which is actually just crispy pancake end bits that taste the best.

Feliz tarde amiga, espero te encuentres bien. 🙏

Todas las entradas se ven deliciosas. Te diste un gran banquete. Ciertamente los vikingos comen mucha carne jeje.

El postre y el helado de mantequilla quemada con piñones debe ser algo maravilloso. Que bonita experiencia vikinga.

Me encantó mucho tu fotografía con el casco vikingo. Gracias por compartir tan agradable y excelente contenido.👍

Saludos y bendiciones 🙌

They loved to consume BEER and Amanita muscaria (deadly fly agaric), as far as I know! (And maybe thats why there is not a single alive viking survived till our days)
