Cultural discovery through Frikadeller

Frikadeller opened a door into a cuisine I'd previously known almost nothing about. The bright and pickled flavours are unlike anything in my usual rotation and I mean that positively. the julefrokost Christmas lunch is a major social event with traditional dishes strictly observed. Understanding that context made the dish taste different — richer with meaning.

I learned that pickled herring is central to this cuisine's character, not just a seasoning. The a traditional Sunday brunch setting was authentic and helpful for understanding what I was eating. æblemost apple juice completed the picture. A genuinely educational meal.
