4 Fishy Dishes to Try in Norway

We all have to say a big ‘thank you’ to the cold temperatures of Norway, as they allow fish to grow slowly and therefore develop a tasty, deep flavor. A superstar traditional dish of the Norwegian diet is the holy Røkt Laks — translated in English as smoked salmon – and it’s usually accompanied by a piquant mustard sauce.

Needless to mention it tastes heavenly, right? We’ll both agree with that as soon as you take your first bite.
