Pickled red onions - so easy and so delicious! My tip is to prepare pickled red onions and always have it ready in the refrigerator. It takes five minutes to prepare and you can keep it in the refrigerator for two to three weeks without problem. You'll probably love having a jar of pickled red [...]
This is an easy and quick, healthy lunch or dinner. The Italien dry-cured ham adds something extra to the dish, but you can of course skip that if you don't have it at home or if you don't like it. Quinoa has no long tradition in Scandinavia but has become a popular side dish (e.g. [...]
In every classical café in Scandinavia you will always find Thumbprint cookies. We might not eat them so often any longer, but when you do, you remember how good they are. This cookie comes originally from Sweden. They are named Hallongrottor in Swedish, meaning “raspberry cave”! It's a buttery cookie with a shallow well in the middle [...]
There are so many different recipes for a veggie burger. I really like this recipe because it has a very crispy outside and an inside that make you feel full (in a good way). Try it! I'm sure even the kids would like it. Ingredients (4 pers): 1 (average size) zucchini 3/4 cup whole almonds [...]
The Swedish "Knäckebröd" (translated break bread) has a long history and we find the first traces of this crisp bread in Sweden around 500 AD. Originally, they were made round with a hole in the middle so that the breads could be stored for a long time, as they were threaded on long sticks hanging from [...]
After starting to bake my own hamburger rolls, I think it's difficult to buy ready rolls (if you're not in a really big hurry). I have tried different recipes but these brioche rolls are my favorite. Brioche rolls are perfect for burgers. They have a soft and delicious inside, and a harder outside which makes [...]
I’ve always had a soft spot for our Scandinavian cinnamon buns. In Swedish, we call them kanelbullar, in Danish kanelsnegle, and in Norwegian skillingsboller. No matter what you call them, the smell of warm cinnamon and butter is pure comfort. I still remember standing next to my mom in the kitchen, helping her roll out [...]
I think meat is something very exclusive. Not because it's more expansive than e.g. vegetables, but because of how meat today can be handled. I try to minimise how often I eat meat, and when I buy it, I try to find meat which is coming from sustainable sources. I buy meat where I know [...]
I like to set my own twist on meals. In Scandinavia, as you might already know, we love fish and seafood. Therefore I have prepared a seafood version of the traditional Italian mince meat lasagna (which I also love). You can prepare this meal in less than 45min. Try it, and I am sure you [...]
In my household we eat vegetarian food every week. We don't think now-we-have-to-eat-vegetarian-food. We do that because we want (environmental friendly) and because we believe the food taste delicious. This is just one of the soup I often prepare. Soup is a dish you can variate after your own taste preferences. The sweet carrot is [...]
