Niklas Ekstedt’s THE SWEDISH COOKBOOK: Lagom Flavors for the Modern Kitchen honors the pure, historic heritage of Swedish cooking. Ekstedt is a national treasure for championing Nordic cuisine and his restaurant empire is the embodiment of Scandinavian pleasure.

A word meaning “balanced” or “just right,” lagom informs the storied culinary traditions of Sweden: the fresh seasonal ingredients and harmonious flavors that come together on its tables. Following this philosophy, Ekstedt has perfected classic and modern Swedish cooking alike, and in THE SWEDISH COOKBOOK, he shares more than 80 of his best recipes from everyday meals to special feasts.
