Minnesota Food

Learn about Minnesota food and Minnesota recipes that include locally produced Minnesota grown products. Enjoy our unique cuisine at home and in our best Minnesota restaurants.

Minnesota Food Minnesotans love to eat! We enjoy a wide variety of Minnesota food and drink items that are produced all across our state.

Family farmers, chefs, food artisans, farmers' market vendors and other food-related businesses bring the highest quality, seasonal, locally grown Minnesota food products to our tables and restaurants.

If you love to "eat out" here are reviews of restaurants all across Minnesota.

Some of our favorite "eats" come from our varied heritage. We love the foods that can be grown right here in Minnesota. Our Native American population has taught us how to hunt and gather many tasty foods. Recipes that have a distinct "Minnesota flavor" are the stuff of legend--food legend anyhow.

Minnesota was settled by immigrants from many countries. The Scandinavians among us have added their own unique Minnesota food list with lefse, and lutefisk, hot dish and wonderful pastries. The Swedes, Finns, Germans, Irish and Italians have contributed their national recipes as well.

For our holiday table we love Mrs Olson's Lefse that is made in Gonvick, Minnesota!

Many of our favorite recipes are based on native foods including wild rice recipes, wild game and fish recipes and recipes that use wild berries. And just for fun we share recipes based on some of our foods that have actually become Minnesota state symbols on our Minnesota State Symbol Recipes page.

Minnesota Wineries: In addition to an abundance of food, Minnesota also produces wonderful wines crafted from grapes and even wild fruits that grow here. Many visitors to Minnesota are surprised to learn that they can visit Minnesota vineyards and experience wine-tastings, tours and other winery events. Wineries of Minnesota and Wisconsin can be your guide to visiting our wineries.

Our family loves to spend time visiting Minnesota orchards, pumpkin patches and "pick-your-own" farms. There are festivals and events that take place all around the state in celebration of Minnesota grown foods. Minnesota fall festivals often feature Minnesota grown apples, pumpkins and other tasty treats.

Where to Find Minnesota Grown Minnesota Food

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture is a wonderful source for where to buy Minnesota grown products. Learn about farmers markets, locally produced meat, vegetables, honey and even wool.

Our food diversity extends to our dining out opportunities. Minnesota has many ethnic restaurants, food festivals and shops celebrating, and offering, the taste of our diverse food culture. Restaurants in Minnesota cater to the diversity of our population and the desire we have to explore a variety of cuisine. Ethnic eateries offer the flavors of the world that include: African, Chinese, Caribbean, French, German, Greek, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mexican Russian, Spanish, Thai and Vietnamese.

If you want to "eat out," there are restaurants all over Minnesota that serve up both the expected and the unexpected. (We'll let you in on where they are.)

Newly published is a wonderful book titled The Minnesota Table: Recipes for Savoring Local Food throughout the Year.

We Celebrate Minnesota Food With Festivals!

Here are just a few of the tasty festivals you will find here.
