Cooking's just the half of it!! This fun filled holiday high above the Arctic Circle is an eclectic mix of the flavours of Lapland both in the culinary and traditional holiday experience.
When refurbishment of your accommodation at the Flying Reindeer Lodge in Luosto was undertaken in 2003, two professional kitchens were installed, one specifically created with the intention of providing an excellent venue for undertaking Lapland cookery courses and holidays. Our hands on cookery courses are taught by local Lapland chefs with excellent grasp of English enabling you to secure the knowledge to prepare Arctic Scandinavian Cuisine with an authentic Lapland flavour in a professional manner.
Four Cookery holidays are offered based on the fresh seasonal produce of the region. One cookery course will concentrate on fish dishes with particular reference to salmon and trout. A traditional Lappish dish that is outstanding is glow fried salmon which will form one of the days' activities. Other Lapland cookery courses will concentrate on the outstanding mushrooms of the forest, the varying uses of venison as a main meat and the uses of forest berries.
Five mornings will be undertaken with demonstration, self preparation and sampling. The afternoons and evenings will be left free for you to select from a range of optional excursions featured within this website or to spend relaxing.
Important information Accommodation is provided on bed and breakfast basis and lunch on five days based on foods prepared in the Flying Reindeer Kitchens. Partners choosing not to participate in the cookery course are charged a lower tariff excluding the tuition element of the tour. A supplement for dinner at a local restaurant is quoted and may be pre-booked if desired. Your lodge may best be described as being a mix of a traditional Scandinavian log wood cabin and a European Style Chalet. This is quality accommodation with all rooms having their own private facilities with state of the art sensor shower and WC. There are saunas for both males and females and our lodge is ideally located being in a semi wooded area some 400 meters from the centre of the village Luosto.
