Historical Garden

Season 7 Episode 706 | 26m 46s

Some of Scandinavia’s grandest farms can be found around Norway’s largest lake, Mjøsa. Andreas visits one of them, Hovelsrud, where he combines innovation, tradition and world class vegetables. He uses fresh herbs to make an egg-free mayonnaise; combines baked rutabaga and local vendace roe; makes scones with yellow and red beets; and creates a potato crusted beef fillet with garden herbs.
