A Menu for Stamina
A Menu for Stamina
The summer solstice—the longest day of the year—is June 21, but in Sweden, Midsommar Eve falls on the Friday closest to the solstice. Remnants of what once was a pagan fertility festival are still expressed with dances around a maypole and some tremendous feasting on the first fresh foods of the season. With this menu, channel your inner Swede and build up some stamina for partying like a pagan. —Amy Wisniewski
