Icelandic Leaf Bread Workshop on Viðey Island!
On Sunday 26th November, Margrét Sigfúsdóttir, the Head of Hússtjórnarskólinn – a local school of Icelandic culinary arts and crafts – will be teaching guests at Viðey island the art of making traditional Icelandic leaf bread (laufabrauð).
Everyone's encouraged to hop on the ferry to Viðey and spend a cosy afternoon together for this wonderful seasonal activity. It would be great to see some masters of the craft there too, who can tell us all about their own leaf-bread-making experience. You never know, the smell of that delicious leaf bread cooking might just tempt a few of those Icelandic Christmas Lads over for a visit!
The leaf bread costs 2,000 ISK for 10 pieces.
Viðey House has a limited supply of leaf-bread irons and paring knives, therefore guests are asked to bring their own utensils if possible.
A selection of tasty meals and refreshments are available to purchase at Viðey Restaurant.
