From the bestselling author of Copenhagen Food, this Scandinavian cookbook is a collection of simple, summer recipes to enjoy at home. With the never-ending sunlight, this magical time of year allows for pause and presence as the days stretch ever longer and the landscapes come alive. Scandinavian summer is more than just a season. Make the most of the season's abundance, from slow mornings with Rhubarb and Rye Bread Crumble or Eggs with Summer Chanterelles, to light lunches of Smorrebrod or Fennel-cured Salmon, and sweet favourites like Apricot Almond Cake or Kringle with Rosehip Jam. There are fresh and flavoursome recipes for every time of day - so, whether it's for afternoon fika, archipelago picnics, or ideas to preserve the late summer harvest, you will find endless treats to share with friends and family. Featuring stunning location photography from across the Nordic region, as well as evocative narrative, Midnight Sun is a timeless collection of recipes and stories that will be a favourite for many years to come.
