Faviken is an exclusive insight into one of the worlds most interesting restaurants: Faviken Magasinet in Sweden. Narrative texts photographs & recipes explain head chef Magnus Nilssons remarkable approach to sourcing & cooking with ingredients that are farmed & hunted in the immediate vicinity of the restaurant & how he creates a seasonal cycle of menus based on them. He runs the restaurant with the same ethos as the farm that the restaurant building once housed. The small team of chefs harvests & preserves all the food for the restaurant by hand using the most natural methods possible. They reject the popular contemporary cooking equipment such as low-temperature water baths & liquid nitrogen in favour of simple cooking methods of grilling & roasting over open coals relying on the chefs innate skills & knowledge of the product to get the perfect result. This approach results in the highly creative food they serve in the restaurant the pure intense flavours of which far from seeming traditional are remarkable. The restaurant is near Jarpen 600km north of Stockholm in a remote part of the country an area popular with cross-country skiiers. The restaurant is in a traditional Swedish farm & caters for only 12 people each evening. The menu is the same for all the guests & each dish is served to all the guests at the same time introduced by Magnus himself. The dishes sometimes involve the use of traditional implements such as a nineteenth-century ice-cream churn or an old sourdough bread basket which is still used for proving the dough. Even though not everyone can visit Faviken Nilssons approach to working with ingredients in the most natural intuitive way possible & making the most of each season will inspire all cooks & food-lovers to think differently about the ingredients that are available to them. Many of the basic recipes for yoghurt bread porridge vinegar pickles & preserves are simple & straightforward enough for anyone to attempt at home & the advice on natural preservation methods can be followed by anyone. ...

For the past 5 years Fay Ripley has been cooking for her growing family. Spurred on by the lack of inspiration out there she has written this cookbook full of recipes for all the family.
