Evergreen: Vegetarian Recipes From A Nordic Kitchen

Beskrivelse

Discover the fresh and vibrant world of Nordic vegetarian cooking with 'Evergreen' by Danish chef Mikkel Karstad. This book celebrates seasonal vegetables through recipes that highlight their changing flavors throughout the year.

A celebration of vegetable dishes inspired by the rhythms of nature and Nordic seasons.

'Evergreen' represents something timeless and enduring, much like the vegetable recipes within its pages. In his third book, Mikkel Karstad offers a fresh perspective on vegan cooking, raising the bar in a popular culinary field. As more people embrace green eating, Mikkel shares inspiring vegetable-focused recipes that showcase how produce transforms with the seasons.

For example, a summer carrot, freshly pulled from the earth and lightly rinsed, is spicy, tender, crisp, and juicy-perfect to enjoy raw. By late autumn, after weathering wind and frost, the carrot grows larger and sweeter, ideal for soups, purées, or roasting to bring out its rich sweetness.

The book is organized into chapters centered on specific vegetables like peas, Jerusalem artichokes, and beetroot. Interspersed throughout are foraging adventures across Denmark’s forests, islands, and fields, connecting readers with the land that inspires these dishes.

Photographer Anders Schønnemann captures the changing light as the seasons shift-from long, bright summer evenings to crisp autumn days and the frosts of winter-mirroring the evolving harvest. Mikkel’s recipes are simple, delicious, and visually stunning, designed to convert even the most devoted meat-eaters to the joys of a green meal.
