Norwegian cuisine

✔ Norwegian cuisine in its traditional form is based largely on the raw materials readily available in Norway and its mountains, wilderness, and coats. It differs in many aspects  from continental cuisine through the stronger focus on game and fish. Many of the traditional dishes are the result of using converted materials, necessary because of the long winters. Modern Norwegian cuisine, although still strongly influenced by its traditional background, has been influences by globalization: pasta, pizza, tacos, and the like are as common as meatballs and cod as staple foods.

✔ Norwegians typically have three to four meals a day, including a cold breakfast, a packed lunch, a hot dinner , and sometimes a late- evening snack.

✔ Breakfast usually consists of bread, cheese , milk, and sometimes porridge.

✔ Lunch often includes open- faced sandwiches, while dinner is the main meal and features carbohydrate- rich foods like potatoes and protein- rich foods like meat or fish.

✔ In the evening , Norwegians may have a small meal similar to breakfast.
