I went to Whole Foods in search of Icelandic lamb meat and skyr. Alas, Icelandic lamb is a seasonal product here in the US, and they only have it in the fall. So I had to settle for overpriced skyr (seriously, Whole Foods, I know you have a monopoly on Icelandic imports, but $2.79 for that is crazy) and Icelandic butter.
Today, I’ll be cooking a meal inspired by my trip. My new friend Jonni (who was kind enough to invite me to his place for an Icelandic BBQ where whale meat and lamb were plentiful) gave me a great recipe for oven-roasted potatoes, which I will pair with swordfish and skyronnaise, à la Icelandic Fish and Chips. I am too sick to venture out to the fish shop to get cod without fatiguing on the way there, so swordfish will have to do.
Keep an eye on Cooking in College for the recipe!
