Taste the Clouds

Cloudberries are aromatic and rare berries that grow in the moors and mountains in Norway. A relative of the cloudberry can be found in Northern Canada and Alaska, where it is referred to as baked appleberry, which is an indication of its flavor - almost like baked apples. Cloudberries can be found in specialty stores or bought by mail order. If you cannot find frozen or fresh berries, you can use cloudberry preserves. In that case, use less honey. The Norwegian cream cheese Snøfrisk is partly made with goat cheese and has a mild, fresh flavor that is good in sauces, as a spread or in desserts.
