gaufre de Liège

There is a waffle out there that does not need any of the fuzz like cream, jam or ice cream. I would never call maple syrup “fuzz”, but this waffle does not need maplesyrup ether. A bit of fresh fruit is always refreshing, but not needed. The Liège Waffle has it all. Liège is a city in the french speaking … Read More

Pompelocello

The project has been going on for a while already. I just did not document it. When I was in sthlm I got really inspired by Martin Bundock who had made all these different “Safta och Sylta” project. One of them was his Limoncello. Since I was not able to find the right Sorrento (it is a good thing if … Read More

September at Skafferiet

Next door to Höje Bakery there is a small old store, Lanthandel, selling only ecological food. A lot of it is produced in Värmland. It is inspiring and I am trying to stick to what they, and the forest, have to offer. It is not very hard to stick to it actually. Even though I do not like ice cream … Read More

Raindear Ruben Sandwich

This is from my Ruben Sandwich from monday night. My American Dad William Davis used to make the best Ruben. In Berlin you can get proper ones at Barcomi’s. But they are not like the ones served by the Davis’. So, this is my version: 4 thin slices of bread that you like.  A darker one is better. Rye bread … Read More

a perfect Dinner plan

The woods are full with it. The rubins from the north are spread everywhere. Two nights ago I went out in my backyard (woods) to check out the mushroom potential. I did not find much mushrooms that I dared to eat. Non actually. But I found lingonberries. Lingonberries makes me crave for Rain dear meat. So that is what I … Read More

den Vilda Jästen

This is how it all started. I felt a big of frustration over the bread that is offered in Berlin. It went so far that I even stopped eating bread and convinced myself it is a way to stay healthy and slim. I fooled myself for about a year. I very much enjoy  to eat so after going to Stockholm, … Read More
