homemade is best


IKEA is coming out with a new cookbook. I can't find out when it will launch... I'll have to check in our very close by local IKEA when I am next there...

It's called Homemade is Best (Hembakat är Bäst), and while it does contain recipes and pictures of recipes, it also contain photos of the ingredients in the recipes, which are all the more cool.

It's fun to try and guess the recipe from the ingredients.

Take a crack at these:
(go to the bottom of the post for the answers)

a)

b)

c)

d)

As part of my mother's family is Swedish, some of the recipes are familiar. It will be fun to see the recipes I love to make, like pepparkakor!

Yum yum yum, Swedish gingerbread, yum yum yum



Answers:
a) Prinsesstårta, or Princess Cake, sponge cake with a green marzipan covering.
b)
Vaniljhorn, crescent-shaped shortbread cookies.
c)
Lingonpeparkaka, gingersnap cookies with lingonberries.
d)
Mandelmussla, almond shortbread topped with lingonberries.

I can't find the cookbook anywhere. Maybe when you are in the UK they would have it?
