Origin

The same mushroom, seen differently

Matsutake has grown for generations in the old pine forests around Klövsjö.

In Japan, it has long carried cultural and gastronomic significance. In Jämtland, it has grown in the same forests for generations, without becoming part of our culinary tradition.

Matsutake Premiären began with a question: what if we treated this ingredient with the attention it had always deserved?

Matsutake

The species

The matsutake growing around Klövsjö is Tricholoma matsutake — the same species found in Japan.

Method

First the forest
Then the menu

The meal takes shape from what autumn gives us.

Matsutake sets the direction.

A meal through Jämtland

The farm.

The forest.

The lake.

The mountain.

The mire.
