Books with title Foods of Scandinavia

One of the most enjoyable ways to learn about other cultures is through their food. This book takes us to the five nations of Scandinavia: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. There the daily fare includes gravalax (cured salmon), smorrebrod (thick open-faced sandwiches), pea soup, pancakes, and appelkaka (apple cake). Traditional Christmas foods are discussed, as well as the tradition of the fika (or "going out for coffee") and the well-known, huge buffets called smorgasbords. Simple, delicious recipes are provided for oat porridge with strawberry preserves, a roast beef smorrebrod, pea soup, and strawberry cream cake.
