New Nordic Cuisine in Denmark

Modern

The New Nordic Kitchen Manifesto was signed in Copenhagen in 2004 by a group of chefs from across the Nordic region, committing to seasonality, purity, regional ingredients, foraging and fermentation. Its effects are real — the revival of wild plants, seaweed, grains, preservation and small-scale producers — and it reshaped Copenhagen’s restaurant scene and, through it, restaurant cooking internationally. ⚠ IT IS ONE MODERN BRANCH, NOT DANISH CUISINE. The everyday Danish kitchen is rye bread, pork, potatoes and dairy and always has been.
