editor’s letter
The edible issue – eat with your eyes – eat the delicious young ladies posing in the hats and scarves in Ida Wang's photographs, don’t forget to eat bread with that and eat a good meal from a beautifully set table. The starting point for this magazine was a stray thought some time in August – I was enjoying a few days in Copenhagen, eating breakfast in this cafe, lunch at the other and dinner in a restaurant – the easy and carefree holiday life – there is SO much food in Copenhagen, the level is high and I got to thinking – could food have become more fashionable than fashion? I sat down to think about that for a while, and to prevent my own imagination from running away with me, I joined Katrine Klinken, chef, cookbook writer, columnist and member of the Slow Food International Council representing the Nordic region, for a chat – an interview that you can read in this magazine.

In addition you can find great gear for your cooking, good recipes and also, well, a little fashion, a few beauty products and some winter decorations – is it too early for Christmas decorations? I completely agree, and in general I’m not crazy about traditional Christmas ornaments at all – here with us you will find things that deserve to be used all through the winter months, call them Christmas decorations or winter decorations, that’s up to you – I have put mine up.

by Katrine Klinken
1. Wash and peel oranges, avoiding the white part of the rind. Cut the orange peel into little squares. Remove seeds and package in a piece of gauze. Dice the flesh of the oranges, put in a pan with peel and seeds. Add water and reduce for 1 hour over low heat. 2. Heat sugar in a pan while stirring, until you get a light caramel, and add to the pan of oranges. Boil for about 30 minutes until the marmalade thickens. 3. Dip a spoon in the marmalade, lift it vertically and let the marmalade slide off. If the last drops gels and stays on the spoon, the marmalade is done. Remove the gauze pack with the seeds. If the marmalade is too thin, you can add a gelling agent (follow the instructions on the package). 4. Flavour the marmalade to taste with 1-2 glasses of Cognac or orange juice, and add blanched and chopped almonds. Pour into scalded jars and seal. Let stand for a few days. 5. Toast the slices of bread on both sides in a little butter on a frying pan. Enjoy a piece of butter-toasted bread with the acidic, bitter and sweet orange marmalade along with a good cup of tea. The marmalade will keep for at least one month if refrigerated.

Mom's meal barometer I've arranged to meet Katrine Klinken in her kitchen to talk to her about her relationship with food and meals. Katrine is a daughter, a mom and a wife, - she is a trained chef, a renowned cookbook writer, a columnist and member of the Slow Food International Council representing the Nordic region. coat from SLOWFASHIONhouse 395 â‚Ź
Katrine serves home-baked rye bread – "this is pretty simple," she says, "organic rye flour that I ground myself, water and sourdough, but it tastes fantastic! Though it would have been a little less crumbly if it hadn’t been in the freezer, I can say that because I know the recipe so well" – and with that there’s freshly churned butter from a small local producer, plums from the garden, freshly extracted honey and a good cup of coffee. – "It's been a crazy plum year this year," says Katrine – "and don't you think that it tastes of childhood"? – Indeed it reminds me of my grandmother who had a very old tree in the garden that bore just such plums – not many, but the ones she got were meticulously and exactly divided between the 8 grandchildren. I ask Katrine what it is that drives her – she gets a pensive look and after a short reflection she replies: "I think I have to admit that I am addicted to the aesthetic experiences that I get from food. – my daughter calls it 'Mom’s meal barometer' . . . . . . . . . If the food I get is boring and bad, I will be disappointed and in a decidedly bad mood.""There are other driving forces as well, but beyond any doubt I find a great pleasure in dealing with the raw materials, in the smells, sights and tastes - food is very sensual." "And immersing myself makes me happy – as with any craft, you can only get better by keeping on and on – and you can only assess the quality of something when you have a thorough knowledge of the subject." Taste and feel for food is like everything else - unless you give it space and attention it will not develop – so I'm just a little bit monomaniac, for instance I know very little about music compared to what I know about food.
from the cook book “Danish Open” by Katrine Klinken, photo Ditte Isager
"My driving force? WelI, I am really passionate about quality, it’s not for nothing that I’m engaged in the SLOW FOOD movement, good, fair and clean is our slogan – and our philosophy is that you affect the future every time you make a choice as consumer and producer – perhaps it sounds a bit shrill, and no one can do everything but everyone can do something – and with the way food industry has evolved, becoming a motorway for uniform and standardized and often quite unattractive products, there is a undeniable need for all the small local producers who ensure diversity, who care about quality and ensure knowledge transfer." "I'm a communicator and I see no contradiction between a philosophical and ideological approach to my profession and an aesthetic one. I will fight tooth and nail for a holistic approach to food and food-craft and for people to have a pleasurable life with food – I am very very tired of the one-sided focus on health – this sounds a little arrogant, of course, but if you understand how to use the
season’s produce and know how to create variation – and your idea of variation is more than the difference between pizza with ham and pizza with anchovies – and if you primarily eat locally produced food, then I am quite sure that nature is smarter than us humans. Many years ago I announced that I deal with food and not with nutrition – what I mean is that you do not eat nutrition, you eat food, and food should be a pleasure not a science, and food is not medicine unless you suffer from some deficiency." "In the same way I get a little tired of the one-sided focus on ecology – there is no doubt that organic products are healthier, but it makes no sense to fly organic produce across half the world – what makes a difference is to eat locally – for the most part, that is, of course I would never do without oranges and lemons in my kitchen." I reveal my feeling that food is more modern than the fashion these days, and Katrine says, "Yes, that really is interesting – unfortunately the food trend you're referring to is still a metropolitan phenomenon, however. Out here where I live (north of Copenhagen), there are more takeaways than food shops – and I mean, how fun is that – for me cooking and the common meal are part of being a family. I’m not surprised that the homes where food is rarely cooked feel a little sad – but food is perishable, a little like music or theatre, it is volatile and no one can look at you and see what you have eaten. You cannot flash your eating habits the same way that you can flash material goods." "No, actually you're right,” she interrupts herself, "there are a lot who have started to act on their knowledge – a lot of items popping up in the media, both about animal welfare and abominable food quality, and there's a growing awareness in the population, not least among young people who are probably not as concerned with traditional luxuries as their parents – and then it's trendy to be able to cook and taking an interest in raw materials. And even though it starts as a trend, the experience of quality is a point of no return, once you have tasted proper bread it becomes impossible or very difficult to still your hunger with factory-produced bread – and though I observe with sorrow that many old specialty shops have shut down, I also see with pleasure that new young initiatives are opening up."
Why did you choose that road yourself, as a young person? – "Actually I knew quote early that I was preoccupied with food," Katrine says. “In the next to last year of secondary school I did my work experience week with a photographer, in the last year it was a cook – I was fascinated, but I also became aware that the restaurant business was tough and male dominated. I spent a few years getting some general education before as a tougher 20 year old I applied for and got an apprenticeship with Jan Hurtigkarl, who a year later received a Michelin star (one of only three in Copenhagen then), and when he closed I went to, I dare say, the most important Danish restaurant at the time – "Saison" under the direction of Erwin Lauterbach. I was totally fascinated by the infinite number of possibilities in the culinary universe, being able to imagine that I could eat something different at every meal for my whole life – it was not until I had children that I understood that repetition and rhythm are necessary, that I learned to appreciate the good everyday meal and learned to appreciate the deep insight and skill that comes from doing the same thing over and over again."
"What is a good meal for you?" I ask – "I like the rustic with a focus on the ingredients, I like things in season – the Italian evening meal is a very nice template – the size is suitable, it has its fixed format, it is not too long so you have time for an evening stroll before you go to bed. I like food that affects you like other art does. I'm interested in natural wines – I have just started to train as a sommelier in order to gain a deeper and more systematic knowledge about wine as accompaniment to food. "Are you on the right track and will you continue along the path you are on now?" I ask Katrine in conclusion – "Well, you do adjust your working life all the time, but basically I find very great pleasure in what I do and it fits quite well with my age to be a commentator and judge and to speak freely and unbound. I will never be a politician – I prefer to move people and touch them, give them good flavours and good aesthetic experiences. And finally, when it comes to influence, there is actually a number of artists who have affected world politics." learn more about Katrine Klinken here buy the cook book Dansih Open here

root chips from the cookbook “the scandinavian kitchen” by Camilla Plum
This is a delicious snack and quite easy to prepare. The roots can be fried in oil, but this is much easier, and just as good. They are beautiful and delicious as they are, or served with chervil cream as a dip. 500 g root vegetables (here simply made with beetroots but all kinds of root vegetables work) 5 tablespoons vegetable oil or rapeseed oil. Slice the roots into very thin slices, approximately 1,5 mm thick; you willl need a mandolin for this. Spread them out on parchment paper on a baking tray and brush with the oil. Bake at 160˚C/gas mark 3 until crisp. You must watch closely, as they will burn if baked too long. They will not stay crisp for long - so eat immediately.
