SKU: 1607745860 Category:
An illustrated lifestyle cookbook on the Swedish tradition of fika–a twice-daily coffee break–including recipes for traditional baked goods, information and anecdotes about Swedish coffee culture, and the roots and modern incarnations of this cherished custom.

Sweden is one of the world’s top coffee consuming nations, and the twice-daily social coffee break known as fika is a cherished custom. Fika can be had alone or in groups, indoors or outdoors, while traveling or at home. A time to take a rest from work and chat with friends or colleagues over a cup and a sweet treat, fika reflects the Swedish ideal of slowing down to appreciate life’s small joys. In this adorable illustrated cookbook, Anna Brones and Johanna Kindvall share nearly fifty classic recipes from their motherland—from cinnamon buns and ginger snaps to rhubarb cordial and rye bread—allowing all of us to enjoy this charming tradition regardless of where we live.

    fĂĽr meine Schwiegertochter, die mit meinem Sohn fĂĽr zwei Jahre nach Stockholm gezogen ist. Und sie liebt es… Sie hat bereits etliche Rezepte nachgebacken und erzählte mir, dass sie fĂĽr den Rest ihres Lebens (sie ist 28) FIKA (=schwedische Kaffeepause mit einem StĂĽck sĂĽĂźen Gebäck) machen wird.

    I wanted a book for fika as a small reminder of my time spent living in Sweden, so I got this book.
    I personally felt it was very simple and written as the target audience are children. there ar eno pictures of the baked goods only drawings of them. But all in all is a good collection of recipes.

    What I liked were the little Swedish anecdotes accompanying the recipes.
    The recipes itself aren’t revolutionary and seem easy to make. As a European, I have no problem finding all the ingredients.
    As I read it, I wanted to drink a good cup of coffee!
