In Sweden, the arrival of summer is celebrated with enthusiasm and joy. Midsommar is a festivity full of colors where friends and family gather to enjoy nature, music, dance and, above all, food.
A dining area for two, or twenty
Midsommar is a celebration closely tied to traditional Swedish gastronomy. Families enjoy a great variety of fresh and seasonal ingredients. One of the most typical dishes in the festivity of light is SILL, a herring that is served marinated, with onion or pickled.
The salmon, king of the table
If there is a dish that cannot be missed during Midsommar is salmon. In Sweden, we prepare it in many aways, but we love to cook it smoked, marinated, or directly grilled in fillets. When it’s time to serve it, salmon is seasoned with mustard and dill sauces, and the banquet is completed with rye bread.
