New Scandinavian Cooking

The Grain Belt of the Country (10x6)

Air date: May 11, 2013

Andreas visits Nes in Eastern Norway, the grain belt of the country. Cereals are a staple food in Scandinavia, and they are used for more than just bread. Andreas makes slow-cooked pig knuckle with malty, beer-flavored peas and spelt. Inland fishing is popular, and Andreas makes a salad of sprouting grains and pan-fried zander fish. He also makes a malt shake, and for the main course, an oven-baked pork roast.
