In Valdres we have rich food traditions. Even though "rakfisk" (semi-fermented trout) may be what we are most famous for, there are a number of other regional delicacies that play an important role in the local cuisine: "spekemat" - cured meat of all kind, "kurv" - the local cured sausage which often containes moose or deer, rendeer meat and diary products as butter, "rømme" - a rich sour cream, cheese and ice cream are a few. It is no secret that meat from animals from the extensive mountain grazing grounds in Valdres is extra tasty and of extra good quality. «Rakfisk fra Valdres» and «Kurv frå Valdres» are protected labels of geographical origin.
