A Modern Icelandic Menu

Norse Mythology is the topic of this year's Class Play, so I am researching reception foods! Rather than go with historical sources re. the Vikings, I have decided on a modern Icelandic menu. Iceland is the place where the Norse myths were finally written down, namely in the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda. It is also the setting for December's lunchtime read aloud story, Life on Surtsey: Iceland's Upstart Island by Loree Griffin Burns.


In the past we've made Icelandic Thunder Bread (Rúgbrauð) by steaming it in the crockpot (as opposed to a geothermal spring, which I do not happen to have nearby).

Let's see what else there is to try:


And I really enjoyed this article on Seasonal Food in the Old Days!

Just a reminder that I have a Ruzuku course for this main lesson block:
