Some approach Information about Nordic Cuisine

Nordic cuisine is a culinary movement which has been developed in the Nordic countries and Scandinavia, since the 2000s. New Nordic Cuisine was propelled by, and found inspiration in, ideas and a manifesto written by food activist and chef and several Scandinavian chefs in 2004 in copenhegan. Nordic Cuisine has been used to promote local, natural, and seasonal produce as a basis for new dishes both in restaurants and in the home. As a result, several restaurants, in Denmark, have introduced local ingredients, some often new to the usual palate, in combination with traditional foods prepared in new ways.

The evolving cuisine has sought to take advantage of the possibilities inherent in traditional Scandinavian recipes for fish and meat dishes, building on the use of local products while reviving and adapting some of the older techniques, for example, those for marinating, smoking, and salting. Products such as rapeseed, Oats cheeses and older varieties of apples and pears are now being prepared with greater attention to safeguarding their natural flavours. These steps have been taken by the proponents of the New Nordic Cuisine in parallel with their awareness of a growing interest in organic food throughout the region. In addition to concerns for "purity and freshness", they have also aimed to make maximum use of seasonal produce such as new potatoes, strawberries and asparagus in the summer and baked goods and seasoned meats during the Christmas period.
