Celebrating creativity and innovation day with these two great Norwegian inventions 🇳🇴👇👇👇

The cheese slicer and the brown cheese🇳🇴🤩💡

 “Ostehøvel” - cheese slicer - was invented by Thor Bjørklund Norwegian inventor, carpenter and businessman.

While he was working as a carpenter Thor Bjørklund began to experiment with a carpenter’s plane in the hope that he could create something similar for use in the kitchen. The result? He invented the cheese slicer in his workshop. 

In 1925 he patented the model of cheese slicer which is today found in many households in Nordic countries.

The brown cheese - Norway’s brown cheese traditions hark back to the days when the country was poor. 

People wanted to make the most of the resources they had available, even the left-over whey from regular cheese production, which is used in brown cheese. You see, the name “brown cheese” is a common Norwegian name for “whey cheese.” It is made with whey, milk, and cream.

Snowy days in Bergen turns the city into a whole new destination ❄️

The mountains go silent and the streets feel like they’re holding their breath.
It’s the kind of winter day that makes you want to wander without a plan, discover hidden corners, and just take in the moment.

Bergen isn’t known for heavy winters or guaranteed snow — but when it arrives, it feels incredibly magical. These photos aren’t from today, but it has been snowing this week! ❄️

Have you been to Bergen before? 🇳🇴

Filming in Svalbard was one of the most unique and unforgettable experiences of my life. I was so lucky to work with Lucy Tulugarjuk, who showed me how to thrive on the ice, and performs with such charisma. I loved shooting scenes in Inuktitut, experiencing the Arctic, and learning about the incredible work ethic of sled dogs. It’s was an amazing time, and I know you’ll be able to feel that in the movie. @missionimpossible

What does a day close to the North Pole look like?  Check out a video-diary from Svalbard 🇳🇴❄️ 

Video by @g_cooper 

📍 @visitsvalbard

Polar bear 🐻‍❄️ disclaimer: there are about 3.000 polar bears in the grand area around Svalbard archipelago. Some of them move around more frequently than the others. However, there are only 300 polar bears living on the island more or less permanently on the island of Spitsbergen. Soooo, the phrase “there are more polar bears that people” might not be exactly accurate 🤓 

what is important is to respect the local rules and regulations when it comes to polar bears, never chase them, never try to “spot” them and most of all protect the fragile nature that is their home❄️❄️❄️

Pippi in Røros ❄️
Did you know: The winter scenes with Pippi Longstocking were filmed in the same town as “Home for Christmas”. 

So I found the setting of a funny childhood memory just around the corner: 
📍It’s the historic Sleggveien where Pippi sent down the huge snowball to the thieves.

Crazy to think the movie was filmed here way back in 1968. It’s not only an iconic filming location, it still gives some idea of the social history of the mining community. During the summer months some of the houses are open to the public. 

I already followed Pippi‘s trails in summer in Sweden but this place was a missing piece of the jigsaw.

This is the world’s longest Christmas porridge table 🥣❤️ Christmas Porridge à la Norway? See recipe below👇

The table is set every year in Norway, in the charming Christmas town of Mosjøen in the Helgeland region. 

The whole community gathers for the coziest breakfast of the season, set along the old wooden street of Sjøgata. 

The town’s many Christmas elves cook up almost 1,000 kilos of porridge for young and old Christmas guests alike.

Recipe 🥣 Santa’s Porridge – the Norwegian way ✨🥣

You’ll need: 
200 ml short-grain rice
400 ml water
1 litre milk
1 ts salt
Sugar
Cinnamon
Butter

How to make it:
1. Bring the rice and water to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes, until the rice absorbs most of the water.

2. Add the milk and bring to a boil before lowering the heat. Let the porridge simmer on low heat for an hour or until it's thick and creamy. Stir occasionally so it doesn't burn.

3. Season with a little salt.
Serve with a pat of butter and sugar and cinnamon on top!
