Welcome to the Culinary Kingdom For me, Trøndelag means food. As Trønders food is part of our identity. Common to all in our newly-merged county, is a close relationship with producers and products, from the sea to the mountains. Food which has grown slowly, with lots of light and moderate temperatures. It gives a truly amazing taste, making the region the envy of chefs the world over. Gordon Ramsay was amazed by the seafood and fjellmandelen (mountain almond potatoes) and said “I want to make love to these mashed potatoes”, as he was served them at To Rom og Kjøkken restaurant. Asian super chef, Chef Wan, had a gastronomic epiphany over ingredients from Røros, and culinary entrepreneur Claus Meyer signed up to the development of the Trøndersk Food Manifesto. Trøndelag has some of the best small-scale producers. They win so many prizes that last year’s Det Norske Måltid (Norway’s biggest culinary awards show) was dubbed the ‘Trønder Dominance’, with Trønderlag producers recognised as “extremely skilled over many years”. The breweries have discovered the best recipes and you would have to be a veritable chess champion to identify all the region’s varieties. Good food paired with the right beer is unbeatable. But we have more. We also have large-scale production, generating value creation and many jobs around the region. On Frøya, they produce four million salmon dinners every day during the season, and along the coast we have the world’s best locations for scallops, langoustine, mussels and crab. Our agriculture accounts for 23 percent of everything green in the country. We have world-class chefs. Restaurants that use the best ingredi-

ents and really show off their craft. The majority of visitors say they have eaten and drunk local products. There is big potential in food tourism. We are a culinary kingdom. A foodrich region in the middle of Norway, in the middle of Scandinavia: ‘Matriket Midt’. Large and small scale, meat and seafood, beverages and produce. This positions us as Northern Europe’s premier food region. When we created the Trøndersk Food Manifesto in 2011, it was on the basis of creating a common food identity for the region. Schools, nurseries, tourism companies, municipalities, business and industry - even Rosenborg - put words to something that we all agree on. All said they want to promote Trøndersk food and drink, traditions, sustainable food production and carry it on to the next generations. When so many different local actors talk about food in their own way, it becomes an identity.

The Trøndersk Food and Brewery Festivals have the theme ‘roots’ this year. I challenged myself to identify what my food roots are? My mind unearths fresh fish, root vegetables and sweet berries. Commodities which taste better here, with pure nature and long, bright, cool summer nights. What do you think about when I say roots? What did you eat growing up? What impact does that have on what you eat now and in the future? Consider these roots as you walk among 170 of Norway’s best food and beverage producers from 2nd to 4th August.

MATRIKET MIDT

Your Food Kingdom

In the middle of Norway lies an area which has received something unique from nature. Fertile soils and warm ocean currents, bathed in long, bright summer nights. From mild, damp coastal landscapes to cool, dry wide mountains, this is an area where products grow slowly, developing a distinct taste. Generations have cultivated, gathered, fished and learned the land and sea. Their toil has turned the region into one of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best locations for scallops, langoustine, mussels and crab; much sought after seafood which is sent all over the world. TrĂ¸ndelag is rich in diversity, with free range pigs, chickens, wild

06 What does the food festival mean to you?

I’ve got some great memories from earlier years of visiting the Trøndersk Food Festival as a guest. I heard it’s Northern Europe’s largest food festival, and I think it’s very impressive how one can make something of this scale in Trondheim. As the official chef this year, I’ll be the face of the festival! I’ll be chatting with passionate foodies and preparing delicious fresh produce on stage.

In what way has the food culture in Trøndelag influenced you as a chef?

THIS YEAR'S

Festival Chef

MARTIN TRANA FLAK

SCANDIC NIDELVEN

his year’s festival chef started his culinary career at Olav Duun videregående in Namsos. He has since competed in several prestigious competitions around the world, all the while nurturing an appreciation of the fresh produce from back home in Trøndelag. Martin usually spends his days working in the kitchen behind Norway’s best breakfast eleven years in a row at Scandic Nidelven. During the Trøndersk Food Festival this summer you’ll also find him at the Torv in Trondheim.

I wasn’t really concerned with Trøndersk food culture in the beginning of my career, that’s an interest which has grown over the years. Today I’m all about fresh local produce from Trøndelag. There are spectacular conditions for the growing and breeding of meat products, fish, kelp, seaweed and herbs. The Trøndersk food experience is all about having your food prepared from the moment it is harvested from the field or the ocean. We are privileged to have so many skilled farmers and fishermen that offer high quality locallyproduced food.

This year’s festival theme is “roots”, what does that mean to you?

Roots can be a great deal of things. The delicious root vegetables from Frosta of course, but it also means giving something back. The producers give me wonderful ingredients, and from there on it’s my job to attend to the produce’s potential.

BACK TO

Their Roots Maren Stene broke the chain of Johan-Arnts and Rasmuses when she took over the farm. Maren Aasen had a sweet dream of a fermented drink. Jørgen Fjeldvær shows off Trøndersk sea industry in Hitra. Three stories of Trønders going back to their roots, and innovating.

who: Maren Stene Almlid (38, pictured opposite) business: Meat production with beef, pork and veal, and farm shop at Stene Farm in Frosta family: Married to Per Einar Almlid, three children The last ice age left a seabed of sand and clay in Trøndelag. As land reemerged, Mother Earth revealed a gift for the people of Trøndelag: wide, expansive, cultivable farmland. All that was left was to sew the seeds. “These are believed to be rock carvings of boats,” explains Maren Stene Almlid, on her farm in Frosta. “I think this would have been a nice place for settlers. Short distance to mountains and wildlife, and the soil is very ‘ear-

09 ly’ here. It is said that the Trøndelag spring starts in Frosta.” There is an historical feeling at the farm, whose slopes dip down into the Trondheim fjord. Cows graze the rich, cultural landscape. Farmers have toiled the land here since the 1400’s and the first farmhouse was built in the early 1500’s. Mother-of-three Maren laughs as she explains how her arrival on the farm broke the family line: “The men in the family had the same names, either Johan Arnt or Rasmus. The tradition has been Rasmus - Johan Arnt - Rasmus - Johan Arnt. Then I show up and ruin the whole thing!”

From milk to meat

Farm land takes up 3.9% of Trøndelag, almost one percent more than the national average. The soil of the 76 square mile peninsula of Frosta is particularly fertile and the area is renowned for its vegetable production. The land also yields good grass to rear animals for meat production. Stene Farm focused on milk production until Maren and her husband Per Einar Almlid took over. They decided to focus on meat production with pigs and cows. Today the farm shop refrigerators are filled with beef patties, meatballs for sod (a Norwegian meat soup) and ‘summer’ sausages. The farm also produces a range of cured meats. “I am a perpetual apprentice to Per Einar, who is our sausage maker, but I also enjoy the process,” says Maren. “I have learned a lot, and no two days are the same.”

Ribs in the summer

The traditions of the area literally came-a-knockin’ from day one. On the opening day there was an elderly gentleman waiting at the store for salt pork. The needs of the area shaped Stene Farm’s processes and they make meatballs and meat-patties the old fashioned way. But their business is also influenced by relationships with more ‘trendy’ establishments, including pork neck for Taqueros Taco & Tequila in Trondheim. Maren gets many questions about why their farm is not categorised as organic. She explains that there are

narrow fields on the farm and when the soil is turned, the edges are sprayed so that weeds will not enter. Neither have they seen any reason to buy organic animal feed at a higher price. “I have had to defend myself on this point when we are working at the Farmers Market in Trondheim,” says Maren. “I asked Per Einar ‘tell me, are we doing something wrong?’ The fact is you will be questioned, but we are very careful about what we feed our animals. Our attitude to it is that we use the least possible foreign matter. And in Norway there are strict regulations that must be followed regardless of whether or not you are organic.” The pleasure of producing food is great at Stene Farm, and the next

generation has already caught the bug. Maren’s children help out after school, and it’s all hands on, especially during busy periods like Christmas. “Norwegians are a bit weird in that manner; we need a particular type of food at particular times. But now we see that ribs are becoming popular in the summer. And people are curious about testing different meats themselves, and they are buying bigger cuts,” says Maren. The young farmer is proud of the farm and where she is from, but she is also willing to innovate. “When you’ve grown up and see around a bit, you appreciate all the hard work that goes into a place like this,” says Maren, who used to work on the farm’s campsite as a kid. “I

10 had not imagined that I would come home and run the farm… but I am very glad I did not give up on my inheritance and the farm.”

Norway’s coolest brewery who: Maren Aasen (28, pictured below right) business: Surf Kombucha - makes the fermented drink in premises at Inderøy family: Engaged with Luca Guichard, daughter of Astrid Aasen (Gangstad Gårdsysteri, cheese producer) “This is Norway’s coolest brewery. At least kombucha brewery!” Maren Aasen is smiling in their new premises at the centre of Inderøy. A sweet smell fills the room where the drink is produced. It’s certainly one of Trøndelag’s more exotic products. Kombucha is a sparkling drink made of fermented tea. “A gift for the stomach” as it says on the label. “I found out about kombucha and fermentation on nutrition therapy studies,” reveals Maren Aasen. “But it was on a surf break in California that I tasted it for the first time. I saw how popular it was, and I was totally hooked on the drink.” Surf Kombucha’s journey started with Maren Aasen producing it at home on her kitchen counter in Oslo. Today it is brewed in big vats back in the little village where she grew up. A lot of work has been put into the project, though it’s not more than two years since the first bottle was placed on the market. Maren had other career plans, studying in Oslo, before she met professional surfer Luca Guichard while on holiday in Portugal. So what was it about the taste of kombucha which caused her to change her plans? “I liked it from the very first taste. I don’t particularly like things that are overly sweet, and I don’t want anything with too much sugar in it. For many it can be an ‘un-normal’ taste. We are hitting a surprisingly wide audience, and not only the people that go to the health-shops. Both young and old people buy it and it is an alternative to soda in the supermarkets.”

The meeting at the bus stop

Maren received her first ‘kombucha-starter’ from a person she had never met before, at a bus stop in Oslo. “It’s like with sour-dough: you get the starter from someone that has made it before. In Norway there was almost no-one doing it. But Luca and I found a couple of Facebook pages, one called Fermentering (Fermentation) and another Melkesyregjæring (Milk-fermentation). It was my mother who encouraged us to apply for funds from Innovation Norway to see if there was a business case here,” reveals Maren. Maren’s research shows that the drink originates in Asia and is a couple of thousand years old. The fermentation occurs when the starter-base eats the sugar and tea, turning it acidic. “They used to use fermentation to preserve food. Cured meats are also fermented where one dries and breaks down the food so that it lasts longer. It is kind of the same with food that is dried or smoked. Beer, wine, sourdough bread, sour cabbage and yoghurt are also fermented or leavened products.”

Bringing the surf to Inderøy

“People don’t understand what fermentation is. It sounds old-fashioned and difficult. But it’s actually quite simple. There are lots of people my

age who uses fermentation and it has become trendy and popular again. We have played with the thought of producing kimchi, but right now we’re focused on kombucha.” After the tea has finished brewing, taste and gas is added. Surf Kombucha has three tastes to date: mango, raspberry and tropical ginger. And now there is a new deal with a big seller paving the way for more production and flavours. And so where is the surf in the kombucha? There is not so much surf on Inderøya. Some waves under the bridge at Straumen is the closest you’ll get. Sometimes a student will cruise through the wavy cornfields on a skateboard. For Maren, the location, proximity and familiarity of Inderøy has been key to success. Like Maren’s family’s farm, Gangstad, Surf Kombucha is located on Den Gyldne Omvei (‘The Golden Detour’), which has long been a showcase of cooperation between producers and the tourism-actors. “Location has been crucial, really. I never had a dream of moving back, but since Innovation Norway were so positive we had to give it a go…. They knew all about Gangstad and the area I am from. I have all my key contacts around me, people that are good at cooperation and helping each other out.”

nings to themselves. People from the west and the north of Norway were allowed to come out to Hitra and see what the family were innovating. The brothers wanted this to be an industry to benefit the whole Norwegian coast. The spirit of community is maintained to this day. “We want to spread knowledge,” states Jørgen. Jørgen’s family also participated in the fish farming. During the 80’s and 90’s several small companies were bought up and consolidated. Today there are mainly a few big companies left in the area, amongst them Salmar and Marine Harvest.

The ocean adventure who: Jørgen Fjeldvær (32, pictured above) business: Department manager for aquaculture at the Coastal Museum of South-Trøndelag family: Married with one daughter Trøndelag’s farming was responsible for four billion kroner in 2015, followed closely by aquaculture and fisheries, which netted a wealth creation of three billion kroner. With ever-increasing salmon prices and new trade-agreements looming large, there is lots to be optimistic about along the coast of Trøndelag. Jørgen Fjeldvær is surfing the wave of this boom, lured back to his old stomping ground in Hitra by an exciting new role: Department Manager for aquaculture at the Coastal Museum of South-Trøndelag. Like many others on the coast of Trøndelag, Jørgen grew up surrounded by the nets of the fish farms. “I used to work on a fish farm

during the holidays when I was a student. It was a nice and well paid job. It was the job at the Coastal Museum which called me back to Hitra full-time,” says Jørgen, who originates from a small place called Ansnes. A new exhibition, The Pioneers, opens at the Coastal Museum on Sandstad on 1 July. Here visitors will meet the people that built up the aquaculture industry, and understand a bit of the tradition that runs through Jørgen’s blood. “I was raised around the feet of Sivert and Ove Grøntvedt. They were also from Ansnes, and are said to be the pioneers of the (salmon farming) industry.” The Grøntvedt brothers were herring-farmers that had a great idea. When they fished with a round net they saw the salmon eating the herring. They thought “why can’t we do the same with the salmon? Put it in a net on the sea, feed it and watch it grow.” They actually made it work, but never considered keeping their lear-

Out with ministers and students

A large chunk of Jørgen’s job is to take people out to a showcase fish farm about five minutes from Sandstad. Approximately 2,000 people make the trip every year. Visitors include ministers, ambassadors, students, pupils and foreigners interested in fish farming. “I have a very rewarding job. We see so many different visitors with different levels of knowledge. Everything from environmental organisations to hardcore capitalists. It’s fun to help people get more knowledge about the aquaculture industry,” enthuses Jørgen. He has become accustomed to many different questions, especially about the use of antibiotics and salmon lice. Jørgen says that his job is not to be doing propaganda work for the industry, but to give people information. “Most people have an opinion about fish-farming, but few have deep knowledge of the issues. We are not concerned whether visitors are for or against. The most important is that people learn something. We see that the industry is now forward-thinking, amongst other things when it comes to vaccination of the fish.” The Coastal Museum now hopes to expand its visitor experience. The idea is to allow visitors access to the processing factory, to see how the fish is turned into product. Jørgen was drawn back to the area because of his affinity with old traditions, but now he looks at the future of the industry with positive eyes.

brewed beer - and maybe a glass of kombucha? The locals make their own akvavit and cod liver oil, and there is a coffee roaster run by a world champion brewer. A detour can be a diversion but in the case of the Den Gyldne Omvei it is a road worth taking. Den Gyldne Omvei’s recipe for success is based on two ingredients: local food and community spirit. At this year’s Trøndersk Food Festival they will be celebrating 20 years of cooperation. The 20 partner organisations represent a wide range of experiences, accommodation with exciting stories, eateries and producers. Common to all is that they have thought about the link between local food and tourism. “It’s one of their strengths, and it has made them unique,” says Anne Haga from Visit Innherred, who believes there is a special neighbourliness in the region.

“Den Gyldne Omvei has in many ways become a catalyst, which has paved the way for new local producers, everything from coffee to herb tea. They have shown that it is possible and we are proud of that. One of the reasons why people are willing to take a gamble is that companies enjoy each other’s success. Everyone talks to each other and wishes their associates well.” Den Gyldne Omvei brand is strong by design. A labour of love, long hours and a lot of community involvement, all underpinned by a commitment to quality food. The food has won several prizes over the years, and is considered to be some of the best you’ll find in the country. “Our production companies have always prioritised the quality of the food. That is the most important thing. In addition, they have all cultivated creativity, and developed new takes on traditional foods using local herbs and flavours from

Inderøy,” explains Anne, who also draws attention to the sustainability of their efforts. “Everything is taken care of. No raw materials go to waste. We see that leftovers find new uses and develop recipes for excess which would otherwise be thrown away. I think that people appreciate this, especially the younger generations.” Den Gyldne Omvei is all about telling the story of Inderøy’s food.

DID YOU KNOW?

Bondens Marked is modelled on the international Farmers Market concept.

BONDENS MARKED TRØNDELAG

Green Hands AT WORK The farmers market has reinvigorated grocery shopping in town.

“We can take some credit for that,” smiles Marit Nestande, market leader of Bondens Marked

Trøndelag. Since 2003, the market has created a meeting place between farmers and city dwellers all across Norway. “We are bringing people to the city center. Quality conscious shoppers. Specialty stores notice increased sales when we are there,” states Marit.

Meet the makers

Quality is maintained by certain requirements: visitors to the market must be able to meet manufacturers, i.e. the farmer, face-to-face. Their products should be predominately Norwegian, with traceable raw materials, and the processes must entail craft, traditional practices and they should be classified as small-scale producers. “You can ask the farmer questions

about how the calf has lived its life, or how the grain is grown. The farmer is a specialist. It characterises good market trade,” continues Marit. In Trøndelag the Bondens Marked has laid roots in four market towns: Steinkjer, Levanger, Stjørdal and Melhus, in addition to Trondheim. Squares, streets and commons are now thriving with regular festivals and events throughout the year. At the Trøndersk Food Festival, regular members of Bondens Marked can choose whether they want to stand with the region they belong to, at Oikos Organic Norway or in the Bondens Marked tents (G and J). Anne is sure visitors will be spoilt for choice: “There are many cheese producers, a lot of salmon and other fish products like herring, crustaceans and other sea food. We try to have a broad range, so you will also find meat, game, lefser, vegetables and other products.” www.bondensmarked.no

That’s what it’s like when you’ve had a winter-closed road for centuries. “Until the 1950’s, there was only one road connecting Lierne and the rest of Norway, and it was closed in winter,” says Camilla Bakken from Visit Lierne. That geography has made the people of Lierna experts in selfsufficiency; they had no other option.

These circumstances affect the region’s food traditions. “There were some small roads to Sweden, and we often had to get there to pick up raw materials. It has given Swedish roots to much of our traditional fare. We look forward to showcasing this at the Food Festival,” says Camilla, using the soft bread prepared with meat and fish as an example. All food for the festival will be cooked as authentically as possible. This is what people in Lierne eat daily: a window into life in this remote corner of Trøndelag, where commodities such as sugar were traditionally used sparingly. “There will be lefse, of course, both sweet and savoury,” smiles Camilla. “Last year’s Trøndersk Food Festival inspired us to bring forward even more of our traditions. In the past year we have talked a lot with the elderly generations, those who themselves have soaked, refined and smoked meat and fish.” “So this year there will be more food, more possibilities and even more varieties!”

nufacturers. The special thing about the Fosen region is that we have the full range from sea to mountain.”

Grows in the sea and on land

The municipalities of Indre Fosen, Ørland, Bjugn, Åfjord, Osen and Roan are working on a partnership that will promote Fosen as a food region. This is done now through the project DYRK Fosen. DYRK stands for excellence, professional pride, realism and creativity. The goal is for food from Fosen to become a brand.

Talk up thy neighbour

The Fosen region offers you the best of both worlds. “You can make a delicious and varied meal from what Fosen has to offer!” says Liv Heide, contact person for the Fosen tent at the festival. “We have everything from traditional seafood to seaweed and crayfish, as well as traditional farm products like various meat products, cheese, jellies and spices, beer, ice cream and chocolate. In our tent you will find both organic and conventional ma-

“Among other things, it is about the different actors getting to know their neighbours and their qualities so that they can talk to each other. We have very special seafood products, but also cheeses factories which make something completely different,” explains Liv. Mussels are never far from the table. Fosen is famous for mussels and they are harvested naturally, or grown in cultures in the sea. Liv is passionate about food development on the peninsula: “We are a region close to Trondheim, full to the brim with possibilities.” www.fosen.net

SMAK OG OPPLEV MELHUS

PROUD PALATES People from Melhus are proud when they see the fruits of their land at the food festival. “When we’re stood in the big city, at Norway‘s largest food festival, and we’re getting plaudits and being complimented ... that’s when Melhus stands proud!” says Hans Petter Øien Kvam, coordinator for Smak og opplev Melhus.

The ‘Smak og opplev’ collaboration has been ongoing for two years, with just under ten manufacturers in their ranks. Last year was the first that these producers had participated in the food festival under the banner. Melhus locals, and people connected to the area, flocked to the stand, which was voted second best in show 2017. "We experienced great attention about manufacturers and products, and received good input from customers. The feedback was a huge boost in motivating further development,” said Hans Petter.

A river runs through it

Melhus is located to the south of Trondheim, with favourable growing conditions for a range of products. The cooperative includes, among other things; cured meat producers, a bakery, organic meat farmers, and a supplier of distinctive little jars of basil aioli. Suppliers are bursting with enthusiasm and have a go-getting attitude. “We see no limitations, just opportunities. We are excited to cooperate and to talk about each other‘s products,” Hans Petter explains. Melhus also offers a range of nature experiences and activities. Lakseelva Gaula, the river basin which follows the E6 through the municipality, offers both recreation and is a source of food. Several farms also offer the opportunity to host events, where visitors can taste local produce close to the source. “At the food festival, flavour is everything. Our market is Trondheim and Trøndelag. If we can make these palates proud, then we have succeeded.” facebook.com/smakogopplevmelhus

ØKOLOGISK

Sustainable AND MEANINGFUL A growing interest in organic food. At this year’s food festival you will find a tent dedicated to organic food. Here the exhibitors intend to showcase perhaps the cleanest food central Norway has to offer. “What we are working for is for agriculture and consumption to become more sustainable,” says Rita Backer Natvig from the organisation Oikos. She says that the interest in organic food is growing. “We have seen a huge increase in demand in recent years. The goal must be that we are able to meet this demand with Norwegian food. In order to do so we must also make sure that our organic milk, meat and vegetables are not just mixed with conventional food. Then the consumer would not be able find it!” That is one of the purposes of the ‘Økologist telt’ (organic tent). There is a lot of organic food available generally in the other regional tents, but in this area it is going to be prominent and prioritised. “Of course, it is equally important that the food is of a high quality,” says Rita. “It must be good! You will find real craftsmanship, a myriad of wonderful products, food that makes me proud of central Norway’s food traditions.” The organic producers are looking forward to sharing this sense of pride with visitors to the food festival. “There is so much competence and hard work behind all these products. That's the story we want to tell. A story that links quality food to biodiversity and sustainability.”

MATFATET FROSTA

REAPING THE REWARDS OF

Frosta

Just as it has been for hundreds of years. Frosta has been described as Trondheim’s kitchen garden. A rich and varied soil, and a temperate climate, make this peninsula perfectly suited for vegetable cultivation. It is said that spring comes early in Frosta and the region can compare with parts of Eastern Norway. “The ocean winds and sea air means the ice thaws earlier here than elsewhere in the municipality,” explains Gustav Myraune, chairman of Matfatet Frosta. “The growing season is long and you can harvest salad several

Folk offer vegetarian food without additives. Rågo has boxes stuffed full of local food, delivered to your door. And there is more carrot, swede, cauliflower, cabbage, salads, herbs, onions, beetroots, cucumbers and tomatoes than you can shake a stick at. “The frost in the ground thaws early and the reflection from the sea gives us plenty of free natural light,” says Bjørn Viken from Ytre Viken farm, where crops can be sown or planted as early as March and fields run all the way down to the shoreline. Bjørn runs the farm together with his sister Heidi and their parents Lars and Mette. They grow salads and spices in greenhouses, and summer flowers, some of which are “outside, exposed to the elements. They get a beating from the wind and rain, but eventually they turn out terrific,” explains Bjørn. On the slope above Bjørn’s farm lies Rekkebo Midtre farm, where Grete and Joar Rekkebo grow 90 tons of new potatoes very year. These arrive in store from mid-June onwards. The farm also breeds piglets, makes cured meats and produces chutney. Grete and Joar’s son, Jonas, runs the neighbouring farm, specialising in sugar snap peas.

times in the same field. We also grow produce which is unusual to get so far north. Asparagus, corn, pumpkin and artichoke, for example.”

Trøndersk 'terroir'

The French term ‘terroir’ is often used in conversations about wine, describing the soil and the special character of a place. At Frosta, special attention is given to the soil in order to produce the best flavours in the vegetables. Previously Frosta was synonymous with the humble potato. Today however there are 50-60 different vegetables and herbs growing there, and product development is ongoing: the ‘pearl potato’ for example, a brand new product. Companies like Grønne

In the old days Frosta was the power centre for the whole of central Norway. The region brought in hundreds of hungry workers from all over the region. People from Frosta are therefore experienced hosts. At the Trøndersk Food Festival, people from Frosta will arrive with baskets filled to the brim. They want to show off their vegetables, meats, baked goods, honey, cereal, juices and beers (Klostergården brewery is one of Norways most well-renowned micro-breweries). For several years the producers have teamed up to create the company called Matfatet Frosta. Traditionally producers from Frosta would deliver their merchandise to Trondheim by boat (see right). “Today we use cars and lorries, but when we arrive at the food festival we follow the old traditions of using our boats,” says Gustav Myraune. www.visitfrosta.no

that what the animals eat has an influence on both taste and nutrition of the meat.

TASTE THE MOUNTAIN Oppdal’s unique pastures deliver world-class meat. A cooperative of nine producers will exhibit the best food Oppdal has to offer. “These are amazing products,” promises Ketil Jacobsen from Oppdal - Smak av Fjell (‘taste of the mountain’). And what a taste these mountains provide. There’s something special about the grazing pastures of Norway’s largest sheep municipality. “Magic in the grass” it is said by many. “We have a unique mountain pasture with grass unusually rich in herbs. That sets us up perfectly for the production of meat. There is no doubt that Oppdal’s pastures are on another level and we know that the quality on the pasture influences taste

and nutrition,” says Ketil. Oppdal is more than lamb and Ketil can’t wait to show that off: “We are also known for our traditional handcrafts and we have a great climate for curing meats at Oppdal. At the food festival we will show off everything from dried meat, limousin burgers and sausages, to dandelion pop and sauna-cured lamb leg!” “Many of our producers are especially good at utilising produce that might be easily ignored. But in the right hands both granskudd (pines) and løvsprett (buds) can become heavenly dishes.” If you are passionate about food and you love traditionally methods combined with modern experiences, then the people from Oppdal are your perfect hosts. “Give it a try!” Ketil tells us. “Passion is the key to everything. Our guests will surely know it from the taste.”

ØYRIKET FRØYA OG HITRA

The Love of the Local The way to Frøya and Hitra’s heart is through the stomach.

Off the coast of mainland Trøndelag, in the midst of Trondheim’s island realm, you will find the islands of Hitra and Frøya. A land where the kitchen window opens straight onto untouched wilderness, boats bobbing in the sea and fish farms in the distance. People live close to the source of their food, surrounded by green fields and blue ocean. “The closeness to the ‘larder’ is connected with everything we do,” says Heidi G. Nielsen from Trøndersk Kystkompetance. “We have not only produced food, we have really created it. That is something we are proud of.” “With connection to land and sea, comes a passion for creation and a desire to share the experience. We have been creating for generations and at the food festival we will be sharing the experience.” They will be showcasing delica-

cies from, amongst others, deer and wild-sheep farmers. Cheeses made by long forgotten methods, but with unforgettable tastes. Traditional salmon recipes with ingredients from an industry which has developed leaps and bounds in recent years. The old really does meet the new at Hitra and Frøya. “We really love our islands and we want people to make the journey out here to create these great experiences. To create images in people’s heads through food is the best invitation we can give anyone,” says Heidi.

RØROSMAT

A nationally-renowned brand

Marit says that what differentiates food from Røros is the cooperation that permeates everything they do. “It’s like having good colleagues, where the colleagues just happen to be from different companies but put their heads together to collaborate.” Examples of cooperation which result in new products include Galåvoldens Gård’s cheese which has smoked reindeer meat, and Rørosbakern’s flatbread, which utilises the leftover red-berries from Røros brewery. “It is important that we, as co-producers, can showcase the products and the whole area of Røros as one destination to visit and experience,” explains Marit. “Our communal brand makes products and producers recognisable across the country. It links the quality of the products to the history of the area.”

Copper-mines

WHAT HERITAGE! Rørosmat is a cooperation based on rock-solid foundations.

“Rørosmat has been going since 2003, but our predecessor, ‘Mat fra fjellregionen’, was created in 1998,” says Development Officer Marit Evanger. Today Rørosmat consists of 27 producers, which are spread around the world heritage city of Røros and in the surrounding area. “We have a very widespread portfolio,” boasts Marit. “World class cheeses, beer and mineral water from two different breweries, mountain potatoes, exceptional corn, cured sausages, fresh meat and game, ecological dairy and unforgettable baked goods, to mention just a few.”

People in this region have been innovating for centuries. The copper mine was started in 1644, inspiring workers from all over Europe to descend upon Røros for work. The workers had to be fed and there was not enough food in Røros for the demand. So food had to be collected from other cities and surrounding areas. These products were delivered and sold to Røros, and the tradition of ‘Rørosmartnan’ (a huge annual food market in mid-winter) was born. It is the traditional supply lines to the copper-mine which explain the geographical demarcation of today’s producers. Several are located in Østerdalen in addition to Røros, Holtålen and Tydal. The distances can be large, but the networks in the network are dense. It is tradition combined with unique food-making processes which qualifies products such as tjukkmjølk and skjørost for Matmerk’s protected designation of origin trademark. www.rorosmat.no

Is Beer a Macho Drink? 3. august 11:30 A presentation with beer tasting and a mingling lunch

Is there something in the taste of beer that makes women choose wine instead, or is it culture? For example, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shown in beer commercials full of bikini-clad women, loud pubs with heavy glasses, and coarse language? The truth is the number of women beer drinkers is on the rise as the culture changes and the growing variety of tastes and flavours increase, drawing them to this classic drink.

AUSTMANN TAPROOM

Opening the Austmann Taproom

we started Austmann,” says Anders Cooper, Production Manager and one of the three founders. The dream he is talking about is the Austmann Taproom. In the language of brew-speak taproom means pub. They will finally have a suitable venue where they can both produce and serve, and where guests can gain insight into the production of the golden drink that is gaining in popularity. “Many are curious, but usually breweries are out of bounds. That is not how it will be here,” he says.

Buying local, very local

Austmann Brewery is moving to “tap” into their real potential.

heir current home, Høvringen in Trolla, has become a place they have, in every way, grown out of. Come summer’s end it will sit empty as Austmann moves to Sluppen. The opportunity there will provide increased capacity, a central location and room to expand. During the process of constructions, beer was already making its presence known; the panel behind the bar is made from whiskey barrels that they used for long-term beer storage. “We have dreamed about this since

General Manager Jon-Ivar Holmslet slides a divider up, disappearing into the ceiling, between the pub and the brewery, explaining how the room can be divided to accommodate both a closed and open pub at the same time. “Before, we had to change the premises to accommodate the guests. Now it can happen at the same time, and here people can buy a beer just a few metres away from production. It’s a very local product,” he smiles. “Many have asked for tastings and the opportunity to have Christmas parties and summer parties. We have created an area for a stage and are looking to host concerts, shows, courses and other events. It’s going to

be exciting this year,” says Holmslet. They have also thought about food and have made room for food trucks to come.

More time for nerding and testing

In the new premises, they can brew at three times their current capacity, more easily and without needing more people. It frees time for something else, like nerding in the new lab, which will be one of Norway’s most advanced of its kind. Or, as Cooper likes to think of it as his playpen. His interest in yeast strains and bacteria is real and far from new. “I started brewing beer at the youth school, long before the brewery wave. As a student I brewed 50 liters each week, which I served in exchange for some kroner in hand and honest feedback,” he says. Austmann will be testing recipes in similar fashion at their new location. “I am looking forward to finding exciting plants in Bymarka and to seek out farmers to see if they have something ‘interesting’ I can add to the beer. We have ten tap lines, and I want to test new recipes and get feedback. Some brews you will only be able to get here, it’s a bit of an exclusive thing.”

For crafters and consumers

The production manager believes this will all be ‘to the taste’ of the beer collectors and serious connoisseurs. “But Austmann Taproom is not just an place for beer lovers, connoisseurs and those interested in craft beer. We also believe that others, like students, will visit us,” says Cooper. The fact that NTNU has exam rooms right around the corner doesn’t hurt. “Here, they can come and celebrate. Or drown the sorrows, as it were.” They tease a little, but emphasise that the interest is really big. “There are many who peeked in our door and wonder when we open. The answer is June, now, and in September we hope to have full production in progress.”
