Sinossi
Un libro intenso, per gustare la grande varietà della gastronomia nordica. Dalla Danimarca al Capo Nord, passando per le Isole Faroe, l'Islanda e la Groenlandia, lo chef svedese Magnus Nilsson ci introduce alle tecniche culinarie di queste terre estreme, con immagini suggestive da lui realizzate, che ne ritraggono i paesaggi e la gente oltre ai piatti più rappresentativi. Oltre 700 ricette autentiche, che Magnus ha raccolto viaggiando in lungo e in largo nei Paesi nordici e poi messo a punto tra i fornelli di casa: gravlax, zuppa di cinorrodi, arrosto di maiale con le prugne, birra al ginepro, chiunque potrà affrontare i piatti classici della tradizione e avvicinarsi a quelli più moderni. La cucina nordica, organizzata per ingredienti, presenta ricette per ogni portata - dalla carne al pesce, ai contorni, fino a pane, dolci e dessert - eseguibili da cuochi di qualsiasi livello e accompagnate da testi descrittivi sulla storia della gastronomia, gli ingredienti e le tecniche, compresi l'affumicamento e la conservazione domestica delle materie prime. All'interno delle singole sezioni, saggi e aneddoti introducono i principali eventi stagionali, come la Festa del solstizio d'estate.

I have a large shelf of cookery books but there's nothing remotely 'Nordic' about any of them. So I was curious to have a good look through this one. I ordered it in from our local Library service and the first thing I noticed was the sheer size and weight of it - nearly 750 pages and massive! I can' Leggi tutto
This a fantastic cook book because it has some many photos of the area it has landscape not just recipes this a vast collection of Colour & facts that are really interesting. If you love cooking that is different & changing that makes you want to scream Fuck me this one hell of a book
The Nordic Cookbook by famed Swedish Chef Magnus Nilsson is expansive to a point where you could swap out the Joy of Cooking (or any other vast cooking reference book) for this tome of cooking techniques and recipes. Do you want to know how to hardboil an egg? Nordic Cookbook has you covered. Need t Leggi tutto
I love this cookbook! It was a holiday gift to me, and so thoughtful and perfect! I've only started browsing through it as it deserves, but have already- in less than a week!- made 2 recipes from it. Both the julekaka (a Norwegian Christmas bread that's a holiday tradition around here), and the red c Leggi tutto
This is a beautiful book. History, dry humor, archaic techniques, rustic-looking photos- it has everything! Many recipes use ingredients that aren't available in the US (or for some, outside of the Faroe Islands). This book is not the place to look for a simple, modern recipe for tonight's dinner.
For those who might be interested in furthering their cultural knowledge, The Nordic Cook Book is fantastic. It's more of a cultural history book than a fully functional cook book though there are many recipes that can be made today. I once made the modern Swedish comfort dish Chilli Creamed Chicken Leggi tutto
This book will teach you everything from how to boil eggs to what to do with whale! While this is called a cookbook (and certainly is with 700+ recipes!), it also a look at Nordic food culture and traditions. No, I’m not going to catch a puffin and stuff it with cake. No, I’m not interested in cooki Leggi tutto
some people read cookbooks for fun. i'm not one of those people. however, i do like reading about interesting people and intersting food, so thus, this. i've been following Nilsson for a long time, and this book surpassed anything i thought it would be. narrative, anthropoligical, thoughtful, and an Leggi tutto
