Scandinavian Baking by Trine Hahnemann (Quadrille, 2015)

Although nearly 300 pages, this fifth cookbook by author Trine Hahnemann truly simplifies Scandinavian baking. In this book you’ll find layered cakes, Danish pastries, breads, and recipes for the two big Northern celebrations: Midsummer and Christmas. Recipes are peppered with snippets of Scandinavian food culture, history and tips such as how to throw a Scandinavian cake party, and the traditions behind rye bread in the North. A great resource for the keen baker.
