SAMÍ CUISINE
Sámi food is based on ingredients harvested from nature, which usually is prepared in a simple manner so as to bring out their wonderful natural flavours.
Typical ingredients of Sámi cuisine include reindeer meat and fish, as well as wild mushrooms and berries and herbs picked where these grow naturally. Chefs that subscribe to a modern Sámi cuisine might prepare the reindeer meat in innovative ways, and combine it with new and exciting condiments, but being always mindful of how they can honour and enhance the original flavour of their primary ingredient.
Here at Inga Sámi Siida, our chef’s focus is reindeer meat. But we will gladly prepare fish or vegetarian dishes for guests who prefer not to eat meat.
Did you know that reindeer meat is just as healthy as fish?
Reindeer meat is rich in vital minerals, key vitamins and healthy Omega-3 oils.
Year round, the reindeer graze outside, eating grass and wild herbs, flowers, lichen and berries, all depending on the season. This diet imbues their meat with a unique flavour and makes it especially healthy!
