Description
In the only Swedish cookbook you'll ever need, Michelin-starred chef Niklas Ekstedt brings the bright, rich flavours of Scandinavia to your home kitchen.
Swedish Meatballs with Potatoes & Pressed Cucumber * Swedish Waffles Two Ways * Gravlax * Cabbage Salad with Blueberries & Shaved Frozen Feta Cheese * Potato Pancakes with Lingonberries & Sour Cream * Rhubarb Pie with Vanilla Sauce * Cardamom Buns, and many more...
The best Swedish cuisine starts with a touch of lagom. Meaning 'balanced' or 'just right', lagom informs the culinary traditions of Sweden: the fresh, bright ingredients in its recipes, and the rich, harmonious flavours that come together on its tables. Following the lagom philosophy, Michelin-starred chef Niklas Ekstedt has perfected classic and modern Swedish cooking alike, and in The Swedish Cookbook, he shares his best recipes from everyday meals to special feasts, showing home cook how to master it all.
These are fuss-free recipes handed down through generations, full of nourishment and sure to become family favourites. So whether you're a seasoned cook or just starting your culinary journey, it's time to find your lagom in the kitchen and savour the delightful simplicity of Swedish cuisine.

A delicious collection of recipes served with Niklas' trademark warmth and Scandi flair.

Niklas has always been a master of flame and flavour, but this book shows where that fire truly comes from. Here, he opens the door to the food culture that shaped him, the forests, cold waters, and quiet craft of Swedish cooking. It's generous, passionate and deeply practical. Whether you're new to Nordic flavours or already love his cooking, this is a book that will change the way you think about simple ingredients and how you bring them to the table.

I love Niklas' cooking and in his new book he showcases simple, honest Swedish home cooking with his creative slant. I want to cook and eat everything immediately!

If I get lost in the woods one day, I hope I stumble upon Niklas Ekstedt. He could charm a bear, and he cooks like one with a Michelin star.
