Your shared love of food is just the beginning. Foodies around the world create blogs to share their latest discoveries and experiences, as well as recipe ideas, techniques and family traditions based around food and drink. There are tens of thousands of culinary blogs, so if you love food, there’s a blog you’ll love, too. To help you discover the best of the best, the readers and editors of SAVEUR Magazine have spoken: here are your winners for their Seventh Annual Best Blog Awards. Finalists flew in from as far as Australia, China, and Norway to spend the day baking bread, butchering pigs, and testing recipes with the SAVEUR team before re-convening at the William Vale in Brooklyn to learn who’d bring home the gold. As always, we're so happy to honor the people who inspire our cooking, our baking, and our martini-shaking. Each category features the SAVEUR editors’ selection, and also notes which finalist was the Readers’ Choice. For the full list of winning blogs, visit bit.ly/2016foodblogs
blog of the year North Wild Kitchen
northwildkitchen.com
Elggryte (Norwegian Moose Stew) Nevada Berg was born in Utah, but her current home—and object of culinary fascination—is Norway. At North Wild Kitchen, which launched in November 2015, she explores and celebrates the ingredients and cooking of her adopted home. Her photos, stories, and diligence in re-creating family recipes is nothing short of transporting— and has us seriously hungry for some røkt ørret (that's smoked trout, in case you were wondering).
