Mackerel is a type of blue fish, high in nutrients and rich in proteins, fatty acids and minerals that are precious for our health.
Nevertheless, in Norway – as well as in other parts of the world – mackerel is mainly used to produce fish flour and oil, which in turn are used as animal feed. A proper paradox, and an example of local culture and cuisine being turned upside down.
The event is held in collaboration with Iyafa and Lighthouse Foundation.
Speakers :
- Frode Stronen, fisherman and environmentalist. Initiator and coordinator of the Fiskfrafjorden cooperative, that unites the last artisan fishers of the Hardanger Fjord.
- Thor Oivind Jensen, researcher and specialist on consumer behaviour and Slow Food Bergen board member.
