Scandinavian cooking goes back more than a thousand years, when the Vikings took a meal break between pillaging and conquering. They enjoyed good food and knew how to prepare them. The combination of long winters and short summers, while being surrounded by a bountiful sea, made for unique vegetation and an abundance of fish. Foraging for root vegetables and mushrooms is an age-old tradition. This Scandinavian Cookbook is filled with recipes using what nature provided the fierce Norsemen. Scandinavian life has always been influenced by the sea, and they were one of the first explorers to bring back exotic spices from the East. This became an important part of their diet, turning simple, local ingredients into something unique and special. Our Scandinavian Cookbook reveals interesting twists to some familiar recipes. From breakfast to desserts, this Scandinavian Cookbook shows you how to eat like a true Viking.
