Great Meat
Bra kött
Gert Klötzke & Niclas Wahlström
Great Meat contains 300 fantastic recipes from two of the
best chefs in Sweden: Gert Klötzke and Niclas Wahlström.
The book uses the whole animal ”from nose to tail” and includes a ”meat school” section that answers every possible
question you might have about meat and how to cook it. It
also provides hunters with many great tips on how to use all
the different parts of the animal.
The abundance of tempting recipes using beef, lamb,
kid, pork, poultry and venison are not only based on traditional knowledge on the best cooking methods for captu
ring flavours but also the latest findings. There are over 500
inspirational photographs of the dishes and meat cuts and
the book is divided into chapters based on different cooking
methods such as boiling, casseroling, roasting, frying, grilling or smoking, as well as sections on how to make your own
sausages, sauces, stocks and side dishes. You do not need to
eat meat every day, but when you do eat it, spend a bit more
money and you will find that it tastes better!

Open your eyes to the abundance of produce right on your
doorstep and grow your own on your kitchen windowsill.
That is exactly what Karoline Jönsson does, using everything
to make wonderful vegetarian food. Artichokes are turned
into velvety gnocchi and beetroot into a beautiful pie. Currants become a refreshing drink and herbs are turned into
all sorts of tea. Lingonberries are transformed into a lingonberry toffee ice cream and mushrooms into a warming soup.
This is a book where rather unusual ingredients like sour
milk, almond milk and birch sap can end up on the same
menu. Many of the recipes have been inspired by the older
generation, handwritten and passed down by grandmothers.
You can produce your own food all year round, using your
windowsill to grow shoots and sprouts during the winter. It
is a fun and easy way of providing extra nourishment just
when you need it the most. Everyone can create a green larder to fill up and feed yourself and others with and, above
all, to enjoy.
Karoline Jönsson lives on a
small turn-of-the-century farm in Skåne
where she keeps horses and hens. She
produces delicious vegetarian recipes
using what she grows and finds in her
garden and the countryside.

Does it sometimes feel as though a week has far too many
Mondays and not enough Fridays? All of us love the feeling
of coming home and putting the full-to-bursting shopping
bags down in the hall, looking forward to a weekend of great
food. But it takes some planning, and that’s where Tina’s
Weekends comes in handy. It is full of all the recipes and inspiration you need for weekend meals, divided into Fridays,
Saturdays and Sundays. Many of the dishes are golden oldies
that taste even better with Tina’s touch. Fridays are all about
quick to rustle up meals that you can eat with your family in
front of the television or gathered around a cluttered kitchen table. On Saturdays we often invite friends over and put
more time and effort into cooking. We serve a starter and
choose a nice bottle of wine. Sunday is the day when we can
lay out a brunch that lasts a whole day, with French toast, egg
dishes with vegetables, sandwich cake like you have never
seen before and delicious cakes.

More and more of us are choosing to exclude sugar, gluten and dairy
products from our diets, and not just because of allergies. We want to
eat more healthily and feel better without having to content ourselves
with dull alternatives stuffed with taste enhancers and additives.
Smart sweets includes confectionery, cakes, pastries and desserts without sugar, white flour or dairy products. The recipes are simple and do
not require long lists of complicated ingredients. There are even recipes
for tasty titbits to keep you going until dinner time when you start feeling
peckish in the afternoon, titbits that are guaranteed not to set your blood
sugar plummeting or get your sweet tooth going soon afterwards.
The book is also a source of knowledge about sugar, gluten and dairy
products, what effect they have on us and why they are so tempting. We
learn how these products trigger our reward system and why it feels so
comforting to eat something sweet.

The Wild Kitchen
Det vilda köket
Rune Kalf-Hansen, Lisen Sundgren,
Charlotte Gawell
Nature is a wonderful provider of food all year round and much of it
can be found right under our noses. While most of us are no strangers
to rowanberries and nettles, not many of us have ever tasted orpine,
bittercress, chickweed or the common daisy. Eating ground elder and
dog violets is actually no stranger than eating rocket or chives, with the
added benefits of being both free and organic. All that you need to do to
follow in the footsteps of gourmet chefs is to open your eyes to a whole
new world of flavours and discover the art of foraging.
Rune Kalf-Hansen is a chef who has been using locally produced and organic
ingredients for many years. Lisen Sundgren is a herbalist and works at Rosendals Garden in Stockholm.
Lisen has written many books about herbs and she holds, lectures, courses, and walking tours for the general public.

Le bakbok
Sébastien Boudet
Format 195x260 mm, 176 pages, 4C
At the Boudet family’s home, the kitchen is the heart of the
house and the oven is always on. Everything is baked with a
huge portion of love, whether it’s light-as-a-feather petites
choux, a moist tiger cake or sour dough bread with a creamy
crumb. Sébastien’s sons Hugo, Oliver and Antoine share his
interest in baking, which is why this book contains recipes
for everyone from Hugo’s age, six, to the more experienced
home baker. The recipes include everything from simple but
delicious chocolate balls to more advanced pastries such as
Sébastien’s pièce de résistance: the macaroon.
As Sébastien believes that the ingredients are just as important as the recipes, he generously shares his knowledge
about such things as the cacao-tree, the saffron flower and
the vanilla orchid and teaches us more about the five elements of baking science: air, heat, cold, friction and water.
The texts and recipes are accompanied by photographs and
ingenious drawings by the illustrator Robin Enström.

together with talented chefs in restaurants and small guesthouses, we soon learn that we cannot get very far without
pane e pomodori, bread and tomatoes, olio, aglio e peperoncino, olive oil, garlic and chilli, or acciuge, olive e capperi,
anchovies, olives and capers. This Mediterranean diet, which
is so rich in vegetables and olive oil and so low in meat, is
considered to be extremely healthy. The book contains about
140 recipes, some of which are so simple that they feel like
you are doing magic tricks with your saucepans while others
require more pazienza e tempo, time and patience.
The Southern Italian Kitchen is also richly illustrated with
photographs of the countryside, the people and the food of
the area.

En inrednings- och idébok
Anna Örnberg
© Emelie Mitroulis Hellden
A tougher and more rugged book than Anna Örnberg’s previous one, where the inspiration comes from cool New York
lofts with rough brick walls, concrete floors and patinated
furniture. This is the natural development of the shabby chic
trend and focuses on industrial and factory-look decor. The
book also contains masses of practical tips on how to turn
boring old things into cool design pieces.
White bases are out. Instead we are painting entire rooms
in more muted colours and beautiful dirty pastels. The
theme of the book is using old things in new and creative
ways. Trunks are turned into coffee tables, panelled doors
are turned into kitchen islands, chairs become a narrow sofa
and a rusty bicycle wheel is reincarnated as a chandelier.
Anna shows us how to give all sorts of things a rusty surface and describes painting techniques such as crackling and
metal effects.
Anna Örnberg has achieved huge
success with her interior design books
Create a Light, Bright Country Home,
Shabby Chic – Indoors and Out and
Country Style – Your Own Way.

Find your own style and build
up a new wardrobe!
Join Camilla Thulin, Sweden’s uncrowned queen of style, as
she gives ten women a brand new feminine look to follow
and enjoy, guides them through the clothes jungle and gives
them great tips on how to build up a brand new wardrobe.
In the right clothes, it is easy to feel confident. A New Look
gives you the confidence to be mature about your choice of
clothes and to embrace your feminine side and advises you
to be honest about your size. Remember that buying a few
select made-to-measure garments that fit you perfectly is
usually no more expensive than buying a whole wardrobe
of cheap clothes that are just so-so. The truth is that very
few women are a perfect size 38. Body shapes are unique so
instead of trying to change what you were born with, look
after what you have got and wear clothes that make you feel
good. The book also shows you how to do your hair and apply a good make up base with suggestions on variations for
everyday life and more festive occasions.
Camilla Thulin is a fashion designer and
one of Sweden’s most famous style experts.
She has written several books on the subject
and regularly holds talks all across the country.
This is her fifth book.
Help, we’ve
acquired a garden!
Hjälp, vi har fått en trädgård!
Erik Sidenbladh
Having a garden is not always as wonderful as TV programmes
and glossy magazines would have you believe. To many of us,
a garden is just a nuisance, a burden and a source of worry:
What should I do? When should I do it? and What about if
I do something wrong?
But gardens don’t need to be a problem. Looking after
bushes, flowers and trees isn’t particularly difficult, and they
definitely don’t bite! The main thing is to get started and
from then on it’s plain sailing.
This is the perfect book for those of you that want to look
after a garden but feel stressed by all the demands, those of
you that don’t know where to start, that can’t find their way
around a garden centre and that think that gardening books
are just for enthusiasts. It starts at the very beginning and
tells you in simple terms what you need and don’t need to do.
In fact, before you know it, you will have a beautiful, wellmaintained garden!
Erik Sidenbladh is a reporter, author and
editor and this is his very first gardening book.
He started to take gardening seriously 35
years ago and since then he has made every
mistake there is to make. In that time, however,
he has also created two gardens that are the
envy of his friends.

Book of Thoughts
for Happy Old
Men
– 109 thoughts about the
journey ahead
Tänkebok för glada gubbar
– 109 tankar om vägen framöver
Dag Sebastian Ahlander
rights sold Norway, USA
Remember that we retire
from work, not from life!
An optimist lives 7 years longer than a pessimist!
”The aim of my first handbook Handbook for Happy Old
Men was to get older men to realise that they have many exciting years and interesting projects ahead of them. The aim
of this book is to show them the lighter side of such issues
and to do so with a touch of humour.”
Those of us born in the forties have been lucky historically, which is why it is important to be able to see ourselves in a
broader context whilst feeling grateful for being able to live
in the here and now. The consoling thoughts and humour in
this book are sure to put a smile on your face about the time
ahead that you have to look forward to.
We won’t find the meaning of life in science or religion;
we have to look within ourselves. Dag Sebastian Ahlander’s
philosophy of life consists of titbits that he has snapped up
on the way: wise words that are based on his own and others’
experience. Because when it comes to life, there are no experts! He also deals elegantly with the stubborn issue of our
inevitable death.
