Danish cuisine

Our Danish recipes: smørrebrød, æbleskiver, rugbrød, frikadeller and risalamande, the great classics of Denmark explained step by step.

Danish cooking is simple, warm and full of hygge: sourdough rye bread, cured fish, butter and delicious Christmas treats. Here you will find smørrebrød, the open sandwich topped with herring, gravlax or roast beef, rugbrød, the seeded dark sourdough rye bread that is the base of every meal, and frikadeller, meatballs browned in butter and served with potatoes and red cabbage. For dessert, there are æbleskiver, little pancake balls with powdered sugar and jam, and risalamande, the Christmas Eve rice pudding with almonds and cherry sauce. Each recipe tells the story of the dish and gives tips to make it at home.
