What is vínarterta?
A Culinary time capsule since 1875, Vínarterta has been connecting and nourishing the bodies, hearts and minds of people of Icelandic descent in a multilayered way for generations.
How do you cut a vínarterta?
Ideally, it should be quite thick. Spread about one half of an inch thick layer of the buttercream icing on the top layer of the Vínarterta. Chill in order to firm up the icing before cutting. Once the buttercream is firm, use a knife (warmed with hot tap water and dried) to cut cleanly into small portions.
Do you iced your Vinarterta?
Others insist a proper vinarterta is never iced- ever. In my experience, if someone has an opinion about vinarterta, you can bet they feel very strongly it. So, it appears the only thing all my Icelandic friends and their families can agree on, is that they will never agree on what consistences The Original Vinarterta.
