The Nordic Cookbook

The Nordic Cookbook offers an unprecedented look at the rich culinary offerings of the Nordic region with 700 recipes collected by the acclaimed Swedish chef Magnus Nilsson. While traveling extensively throughout the Nordic countries – Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, Magnus collected recipes and photographed the finished dishes, as well as the landscape and its people. This beautiful volume, richly illustrated with Magnus Nilsson’s personal photography, unravels the mysteries of Nordic ingredients and introduces Nordic culinary history and cooking techniques. With Magnus as a guide, everyone can cook their favorite Nordic dishes and explore new ones, introducing you to the familiar (smoked salmon, meatballs and lingonberry jam) and less familiar (rose-hip soup, pork roasted with prunes, and juniper and honey beer) aspects of Nordic cuisine. The Nordic Cookbook joins Phaidon’s Mexico the Cookbook, India, Thailand, and others as the definitive cookbook on home cooking from the Nordic countries, including Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
