Ptarmigan / Rjúpa – HUGRÚN
kr. 990,00 – kr. 8.990,00Select optionsPtarmigan – Rjúpa
According to Icelandic folklore, the Virgin Mary once summoned all the birds into her presence and commanded them to walk through a fire. All obeyed with the exception of the Ptarmigan, which is why it is now unique among birds in having feathered feet. To punish this disobedience Mary laid a curse on the ptarmigan, proclaiming that the bird would from now on be constantly persecuted and killed by its brother, the hawk. Ever since, the hawk has persecuted, killed and eaten the ptarmigan, not remembering that they are brother and sister until he reaches her heart. Upon that realization, the air resounds with the hawk´s howls of grief.

Krumkaka (Krumkake) – HUGRÚN
kr. 3.290,00 – kr. 9.350,00Select optionsKrumkaka – Krumkake
The “Krumkaka” is a decorated festivity bread, fried in specially designed krumkaka-irons. The decorations on the irons can be of different patterns that are influenced by national traditions or religion. In the old days, the krumakaka-irons were expensive and not everybody could afford one. Those who didn’t could use the services of so-called “baking women” who travelled from one farm to another fried the krumkakas using their own irons. Despite newer cooking traditions in Norwegian homes, the krumkaka has endured and for many a necessity for the Christmas table.
