Religion probably played a role too. That line is almost the Protestantism-Catholicism divide. Protestants had to live a sober life and this probably extended to their cuisine. Like the Dutch and British traveled across the world and waged wars for spices and the spices barely entered their gastronomy. All they did was sell the spices to Southern Europe

They are more to the south though. They are somewhere around the same latitude as the Mediterranean. Even though they have snowy winters the winter season is shorter thus their growing season last much longer. Hence why they can grow a larger variety of vegetables.

Fermentation? I’m sure that’s not all of it but I think that’s how they got a lot of things to keep.
Speaking as a Swede, it’s true. Rotten fish is not a flavour, it’s a crime against gastronomy. Also flour is not a spice.
