Beer-Braised Pork Belly

The closer together you make the crosshatch cuts through the skin, the easier this will be to eat.

Herring in Mustard Sour Cream on Rye Bread

Purists will tell you this just gets better with time, so prepare it in advance of your party.

Potato Gratin with Goat Cheese

Bucheron is an aged goat cheese—sharp but gooey and oozy around the edge. If using fresh goat cheese, it will soften not melt.

Almond-Barley Porridge with Fruit

Live in a magical place where cloudberries abound? Use them instead of the cherries, as they do in Norway.

Cabbage and Apple Salad

This seasonal kale salad is just the thing to serve alongside hearty braised meats and roasts this fall.

Cured Arctic Char

This method works well with other fish. Substitute salmon or fresh trout for the char if you like.

Lefse

Like a potato-y flatbread and great topped with cured fish.
