Andhrímnir

Encyclopedia : A : AN : AND : Andhrímnir

Andhrímnir was the chef for the Æsir and einherjar in Norse mythology. Every day, he killed Sæhrímnir, the cosmic boar, and cooked it in Eldhrímnir, his cauldron with magical powers. That night, the boar was restored to life to be eaten again the next day. He makes the Æsir's mead from the milk of Heiðrún, a goat.
