Frikadeller (Danish pork meatballs) are one of those quintessential foods that almost every Dane, young or old, knows how to make; children are even taught how to make them in school. Anne's frikadeller, however, are particularly special; she uses an handheld electric mixer to beat the ingredients together, producing an exceptionally fluffy meatball.
Ask any Dane what they think of when you say summer, and they will almost certainly respond with strawberries. Ask them about Danish summer desserts, and it will be Rødgrød med Fløde, a beloved, slightly thickened berry soup, served with a decadent amount of loose heavy cream.
Anne is an Danish adventuress who has spent much of her life exploring the world in search of arts and crafts, new experiences, and foreign cookbooks. Classically trained in cooking at Le Cordon Bleu, from Anne I learned that Danish home cooking is all about pork, potatoes, and cabbage. And in the summer, berries, ærter (shelling peas), and fjordrejer (tiny pink fjord shrimp).
