On this blog, we do many things. We share seasonal recipes, we venture into cooking in addition to baking, and we sometimes even get out of our comfort zone by creating brand new recipes!
Flæskesteg (Danish Roast Pork)
If you ask anyone in our house, Danish Christmas dinner is the best meal of the year. We have grown up eating it for every single Christmas, yet somehow we never get tired of it.

It feels like we haven’t posted a new bread roll recipe in a long time, which is abnormal for us! We love bread, and we love coming up with new recipes to share with you all.
Brunede Kartofler (Danish Caramelized Potatoes)

Risengrød (Rice Porridge)
Christmas is coming at us hard and fast – only a few more days left to secure the final gifts and groceries! In Denmark, Christmas is full of lots of strange traditions that actually start in the days leading up to the holiday.
