Have you ever eaten an open sandwich with nordic bread, topped with leavened, seasoned butter and dry, hard cheese? That’s what this thick chunk of a book with more than 700 authentic recipes collected by the celebrated Swedish chef Magnus Nilsson is all about.
“So, if you are one of those people who will buy a book and think that you are going to be able to cook every recipe in it and that anything else doesn't make sense, put this book up for sale on Ebay asap. This book contains more than 700 recipes and the vast majority of them will be quite possible for most people to make in their homes, but not all of them. A recipe is sometimes the best way of describing the cultural reflection, which a dish always is. A book like this is as much a documentation of food culture for you to learn from and get inspired by, as it is an instruction on how to cook specific dishes.” Magnus Nilsson
