Troll Cream | Trollkrem

November 29, 2020 By Therese Leave a Comment

A dessert worthy. 

Trollkrem, or troll cream is a dessert made of sugar, egg whites and lingonberry. By whipping it you end up with this fluffy and creamy dessert which is both sweet and deliciously tangy at the same time. A traditional dessert that goes way back. The name is unknown, but might be either from the lingonberries which has been called troll berries back in the day – or because trolls live up in the mountains, where we also can find a bunch of lingonberries.

Today, this dessert is not the most common – and many people, especially the younger ones have probably never tasted it. It’s well worth a try – and a little goes a long way.

Want to try another dish that is very traditional that we eat every year? Even during summer? Check out my recipe for Rømmegrøt (sour cream porridge).

  3. Enjoy straight away.

Nordic Cuisine

The best way to understand the Nordic region’s food culture is more than a trip to Ikea- it’s understanding our traditions, our nature and our people.

Nordic cuisine has never been extravagant, nor has it been fancy- it can best be described with the words of my favorite cafe in Oslo; “By serving a simple slice of waffle with strawberry jam and brown cheese with a cup of coffee on the side”. Nordic cuisine is known to be simple and with few ingredients- ingredients from the areas where we live and the lands surrounding us- like the woods, the sea, the mountains and the fjords. A blend between fresh, seasonal and preserved flavors- often put in jars and stored away in a dark pantry somewhere on a farm- only to be enjoyed and devoured throughout the seasons.

Food is one of the most important things we have in life- and we should all have enough knowledge about food to be able to live a long and happy life. It should not be a burden- nor should it be boring. Food should be something that makes you thrive to be able to live the life you want, it should bring people together in the most wonderful way and last but not least- it should be fun.
