Italian Family Lunch

As beautiful as it is practical, this collection of crowd-pleasing recipes from one of the pioneers of New Nordic cuisine shows how to make delicious, seasonal, stress-free food for the people you love. In his book Nordic Family Kitchen Mikkel Karstad applied his culinary skills to easy family meals. Now he offers the same impeccable flavors, practiced techniques and laid-backstyle in a guide to effortless entertaining. Divided into six occasion-based menus, the book sets the stage for a summer barbecue, a formal Christmas dinner, a relaxed family lunch, a children's birthday picnic, weeknight supper for friends, and Sunday brunch. Each setting is captured in elegant photographs that reflect an atmosphere of togetherness, friendship, and joyful community.
