What is the main diet of Icelanders?

Iceland is not a big gourmet country in the traditional sense, but it has its own distinctive cooking style because of its lack of natural materials and being surrounded by the sea.

As an island country, Iceland is rich in natural fishery resources, not to mention the natural pollution-free waters here, which makes the seafood here extremely delicious.

Iceland is also rich in mutton. Perhaps it is because the sheep here are naturally stocked in summer, so the meat is particularly tender and delicious, and the mutton taste is also very weak. Moreover, mutton soup and lamb chops are popular foods that must be tasted because the cooking techniques of mutton are very suitable for China people's appetite.

Lobster soup is one of the most famous local flavors in Iceland. Although this dish is not unique in Iceland, its taste is unique among many lobster soups.

As long as you look at the bright orange soup, your appetite will be aroused immediately; And it's rich in layers, and it's a bit like Thai hot and sour soup, which will make your appetite bigger. There are usually four or five pieces of lobster meat in the soup, and the instant taste is absolutely unforgettable. Lobster soup usually adds bread to cream, and bread dipped in thick soup is probably the most authentic way to eat it.
