Classic Scandinavian cuisine is based on natural produce, with fish
caught from the seas and rivers; wild game from the rugged forests; and
meat and dairy products from the animals that graze on the fertile
pastures. The age-old traditions of pickling and preserving food ensure
survival during the long winters. The first section explores the
evocative landscapes and climates that unite Swedish, Norwegian and
Danish food cultures, and their differences. With over 150 regional
dishes, and more than 800 photographs, this book is an irresistible
volume for anyone who wants to explore the secrets of authentic
Scandinavian cooking.
