Around the globe in 2013
GREETINGS from India’s ‘Land of Spices’, Hungary’s ‘Land of 100 soups’ and Finland’s ‘Land of Lakes’; America suggested ‘eating the colours of the rainbow’, Israel touted its culinary openness, while Greece advised that one ‘cook with love’; a Swiss meal embodied the spirit of its homeland, while the secrets of Indonesian slow-cooking and Korean Kimchi were revealed. These were all part of The Slovak Spectator and TV Sme’s explorations into culinary cultures of the world through the Cooking with Ambassadors programme in 2013.
Norwegian cuisine: Treat from the kingdom of salmon
SALMON lay their eggs in fresh water, where they develop only to later migrate to the open ocean, where they become sexually mature and then return to their natal streams to spawn, where most of them die. The Norwegian Ambassador to Slovakia, Inga Magistad, finds the natural life-cycle of salmon fascinating, and even though today one of Norway’s primary exports is being bread in large salmon farms, she says that traditional salmon fishing is still very popular with many Slovaks who go fishing in salmon rivers along Norway’s coasts in the autumn.
