I am thrilled to be taking part in the blog tour for
Smorgasbowl today. I received a copy of this book as part of the tour.
I love cooking and I am quite obsessed with cookery books –
I have a huge and ever-increasing collection of them, so I was really excited
to review Smorgasbowl.
Smorgasbowl focuses on creating dishes that are simple and
inspiring. Reading through this book, I was struck by how easy these recipes
are to make and also how simple it is to adapt to your own dietary requirements.
I personally particularly like the way in which there is not
much sugar included, as I am trying to cut down my sugar intake.
The book begins with an introduction and then explains the
four pillars of a balanced somrgasbowl, which are Taste/Flavour, Nutrition,
Texture and Temperature and goes om to give examples of these. I found this
very helpful.
We tried the Summer Fruit Salad, which was perfect with the recent
hot weather and I am looking forward to making the Banana-Tahini Chia Pudding,
as this is something I have never made before.
Overall, this is a lovely book with some really inspiring
recipes. I highly recommend it.
