Shrimp.


Shrimp is one of the food specialties in Norway. They are so satisfying because of their saltiness. Shrimp aren't naturally salty but the shrimp mongers boil the shrimp in the salt water from the fjords. You can eat them from the bag, put them on a sandwich or in a soup. And most of the time you have to peal them yourself, first by taking the head off, then the tail, then the rest of the outer skin and legs.



 The two pictures above are actually crabbing boats. I don't remember ever eating crab but I wanted to show what these boats look like and how they are just tied to the docks and ports by the towns where people can buy directly from the boat.
