Arctic char

Yesterday, in the company restaurant, they served arctic char. What a magnificent looking fish. Yes, it is on my list to catch. :) I do love the variety of fish available for eating (and catching), here in Finland. The whole lunch was just under 10 euros, including main course, salads, bread, dessert, and drinks. Also, it was tasty. The fish was steamed with new potatoes and some rosemary sauce. Yummy. Sometimes, you can have it baked, so that the skin is crispy. I love that too. :) Anyhow, in Finland, this fish is usually available in better groceries for reasonable price.

So, why is this blog here? :) Because, it is about a marvelous fish, which actually you can catch in Lapland. The Sami people (natives there) do catch a lot during winter through ice. The arctic char's color is even more vibrant in that white surrounding.
