Strawberries in the Nordic Kitchen (Online) with Janette Dragvold

Join cooking instructor Janette Dragvold and experience the strawberry season Nordic style with several quick and easy recipes. We will explore the history and folklore of strawberries in the Nordic countries as we prepare traditional and modern dishes.  This Vesterheim cooking class is designed as a small-group cook-along, and we invite exchange between the instructor and students in order to build community around food traditions. In this same spirit of sharing, we invite the whole family to experience this collaborative cooking and learning process. Only one registration is needed per household. Janette Dragvold is an artist, musician, writer, and baker from Southeastern Minnesota. Having grown up in and still living in a rural area that is thick with Norwegian heritage, she loves being surrounded by nature, rosemaling, and fresh-baked Scandinavian goodies. She enjoys everything Nordic and tries to learn as much as she can about traditional folk art, folklore, music, and baked goods. Some of her fondest memories are baking lefse, flatbrød, krumkake, sandbakelse, and kransekake with her mother and grandmother.
