03.12.2018 Lecture: Historical meal-culture with Ulrica Söderlind

Ulrica Söderlind, meal historian at Restauranghögskolan Umeå, gives us a fascinating journey of the discovery and use of raw materials, dishes and drinks throughout Swedish history. Is it possible to recreate the taste of history and of the previous centuries, and is it even necessary?

Ulrica talks about the Swedish tavern environment during the years 1600-1700 and discusses the human conditions to tastes throughout history.

In her substantial meal research, Ulrica works interdisciplinary with written sources and archaeological objects.
