Andreas travels to the port town of Skien in Eastern Norway, the hometown of Norway’s most important playwright, Henrik Ibsen. To honor this, Andreas uses recipes from the 19th century to make herring salad and a dessert made with buttermilk. For the main course, he goes hunting and prepares a tasty dish of wild duck cooked over an open fire and served with seasonal vegetables.
