The Great Scandinavian Baking Book

Food is the heart of a Scandinavian home: scrumptious pies, delicate pastries, millions of cookies, and, of course, savory breads. Each country-Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland-has its specialty and no one goes hungry. In this mouthwatering collection, Beatrice Ojakangas calls on her own Scandinavian heritage and wide-ranging knowledge of baking to produce the definitive cookbook for this rich cultural heritage. 

You'll find recipes for Christmas Ginger Cookies, Swedish Almond Rusks, Icelandic Almond Cake, Danish Apple Cake, Cardamom Rings, Lefse, Finnish Flatbread, and dozens of other favorite breads, cakes, cookies, bars and pies.
