Iceland Moss Soup
Iceland moss is very versatile. In spite of the name, it isn't
a moss at all. It's used in cosmetics, medicines and nutritional
supplements, and as food. In olden times it was also used
for colouring wool. In modern times, it is also used as a
flavouring for a special food. This soup is nourishing and
tasty.

Danish Christmas Pudding
The name sounds French, and maybe it is, originally. But the
Danish eat this as dessert at Christmas. In some Icelandic
households it is served instead of rice pudding at Christmas.

Rhubarb Porridge
Rhubarb grows in almost every vegetable garden in Iceland,
right alongside the potatoes. In the summer, it is mostly
used for soup and "grautur" (thick soup-something like porridge).
It is preserved mostly as jam, but it also freezes well. There
are many homes where rhubarb soup or porridge is eaten throughout
the winter. It is also good for desserts and chutneys, and
it makes excellent wine.
