Forlagets beskrivelse
Engelsk version af Bogen om Smørrebrød (dansk tekst nederst)
This is a tale about the evolution of Denmark’s most authentic food through the ages. Smørrebrød has been with the Danes since Viking times, and in the late 1800s, during Denmark’s first gastronomic golden age, it became known to the world as the ‘open-faced sandwich.’
In this book, you will learn the true story of this genuinely Danish culinary speciality upon which Denmark was more or less built, since rye bread was one of the most important foodstuffs.
The word smørrebrød, like the open sandwiches it describes, is comprised of two parts: smør, meaning ‘butter’, and brød, meaning ‘bread’. Until recently, almost all Danes would eat rye bread with butter and various toppings for lunch daily, either as flat sandwiches wrapped in paper and brought to work or school, or as the more elaborate ‘højtbelagt’ (meaning piled high with toppings) smørrebrød found in restaurants and shops specialising in these special sandwiches.
From 1980 to 2000, smørrebrød lost ground to international foods like hamburgers, pizza, shawarma, and kebabs. In the tailwinds of the gastronomic revolution that brought forth New Nordic Cuisine, though, smørrebrød has had a renaissance. The renaissance started quietly in the early 2000s, but in 2006, it gained momentum when new players entered the smørrebrød game and revived the speciality.
In the years since, emerging smørrebrød chefs have become more skilled and more ambitious, and Denmark’s thriving gastro-tourism has fuelled this development. Bogen om Smørrebrød er forfatterens femte udgivelse om emnet, og det historiske afsnit samt en del af opskrifterne har været bragt i tidligere udgivelser.
