Scandinavian Year, The: Food and Thoughts from Sweden, Denmark and Norway (HB)

A stunning collection of over 140 pan-Scandinavian recipes, set across the year from January to December with beautiful lifestyle images and cultural essays relating to food traditions and seasonal celebrations. An accessible and engaging exploration of Scandinavian food featuring delicious recipes to try at home, developed by Brontë Aurell, owner of the popular Scandikitchen Cafe in London’s bustling West End. Scandinavian food is simple. Natives call it ‘husmandskost’ (farmer’s fare). It’s natural and honest. When you work with the very best produce, there’s no need to overcomplicate it. Its appeal lies in the fact that it is healthy, wholesome, flavoursome, simple to make and beautiful to look at. Discover the best recipes Scandinavia has to offer and learn more about how the unique Nordic culture influences everyday life throughout the year. This beautifully photographed book takes the reader on a journey from January to December, sharing seasonal recipes plus exploring cultural events and traditions and offering entertaining (and often educational!) insights into the people, places, weather and language.
