That's Me!!
The blond girl on the cover is me! I just felt like adding that to the reviews!!I was 8 and I just happened to be up early and dressed in my costume(which my mother made for me). My mom buys them wherever we go.Happy reading!

cute
This is a very cute book.
It's more Danish-American than Danish, though, so if you're looking for a book about Denmark, this is not the one.
That said, it's nice, in its own way. Sweet, charming, full of stories of Midwestern grandmothers and such, as well as stories about Danish-American enclaves in the USA. There are some nice recipes, pretty much all of which are duplicated in the book "Dear Danish Recipes."
I was hoping for more insight into Denmark, but this is really more of a Danish-American immigrant thing. Good for what it is, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Americaýs inheritance of the Danish people!
Definitely Danish: Denmark and Danish Americans reflects the Danish-American experience of the over one-million Americans of Danish descent whose strong influence has helped shape Amereican identity.

Author Julie Jensen McDonald is noted for her novels about Danish immigrants in America as well as for her other Penfield Press titles which include Danish Proverbs and the popular cookbook Delectably Danish: Recipes and Reflections. Information from Julie and other contributors covers this ethnic group's influence on literature, dance, music, business, and various other aspects of society.

Ingred M. Christiansen of Brookline, Massachusetts. contributed articles about Danish Folk Dancing and Danish Folk Arts. Her mother, Marie Elisabeth Valborg Jorgensen at age 91, contributed memories of Christmas celebrations in Denmark in the early 1900s. Ingred is active in Scandinavian-American programs.

The food section includes traditional recipes (with the Danish names) savored by generations, including Racine, Wisconsin's O&H Bakery's famous kringle recipe. Holiday customs include a pattern for the interwoven paper hearts.

Artist Diane Heusinkveld's illustrations cover Danish-American artifacts, sites, events, costumes and people. Among these charming drawings are the Dagmar Cross, the Danish Windmill in Elk Horn, Iowa, "Kristus," Bertal Thorvaldsen's famous statue of Christ, and Gutzon Borglum's "Mount Rushmore" sculpture.

The colorful cover of this book shows two young girls in Danish costume enjoying a festival at Skovsoen, the Danish Village at Concordia Language Villages. The back cover has a picture of the white clapboard Danish Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church that is now part of the Stuhr Museum of the Prairie Pioneer in Grand Island, Nebraska.

Tiny
Make sure you look at the dimensions of this "cookbook."It's very tiny.Almost index card size.The recipes look okay, but are very common from what I've read so far.Not worth it, IMO, as a companion to an Aebleskiver pan (which is why I got it).

Danish Recipes
I bought this for myself and then another to give as a gift a week later. The recipes are easy and taste great.

Aebleskiver and More..A sample of Danish Recipes
This item arrived very quickly.The book was smaller than I thought.It has some good recipes in it but I was more interested in the baking of the danish "pancake" Aebleskiver's.I would still recommend this book.Thank you.

Fun danish recipes
Our son is going to Denmark for 2 years and these recipes are fun and interesting to help prepare him for the different varieties he will be eating. Some we really liked and some were quite unusual.

The cookbook was just fine...and it didn't have food stains on it, which the other cookbook had!! ... Read more

Book Description
Cookbooks tell stories. They open up the worlds in which the people who wrote and read them once lived. In the hands of a good historian, cookbooks can be shown to contain the markings of political, social, and ideological changes that we conventionally locate outside the kitchen. Cookbooks allow us to trace the course of empires, of social roles, and of new nations over time. Danish Cookbooks: Domesticity and National Identity, 1616-1901 draws from three hundred years of Danish cookbooks to trace the growth of a bourgeois consciousness, the development of domesticity and gendered spheres, and the evolution of nationalism and a specific Danish identity from the early seventeenth to the beginning of the twentieth century.Like all prescriptive literature, cookbooks do not merely reflect the changes of the day but also constitute them. Historian Carol Gold reads recipes and cooking instructions for what they can tell us about literacy levels, division of labor in the kitchen and in society, and changes in the gendered aspects of publishing and using cookbooks. Gold explores the authors' instructions for economic and hygienic housekeeping and their sentiments about Danish identity as spelled out in dishes and spices. Just as the Danish nation would manage the body politic, so women were exhorted to manage the house and ensure the family's physical and moral health. Through the pages of cookbooks - in recipes, menus, and table settings - we can chart the growth of a nationalist Denmark and track the development of what it means to be a Dane.Written with the ease of a veteran historian and in an accessible and engaging style, Danish Cookbooks will appeal to scholars in Scandinavian studies as well as in gender and women's studies.It will also appeal to nonacademic readers interested in historical aspects of Danish nationalism and identity, women's social history, and cookbooks and cooking. ...

The Unique Sources of Food History
Food history has a unique set of documents - cookbooks and recipes - but no canon or methodology by which they can be interpreted. A number of recent books, however, have attempted to redress this deficit. Danish Cookbooks is an account of the emergence of a Danish national cuisine. Gold does not think Danish national cuisine somehow bubbled up from the people, but rather it was imposed by nationalist elites of the early 19th century, the same class as issued the first dictionaries and began to identify national themes of folklore. The key chapter here is a brilliant account of how potatoes - a new world crop--came to become the lynchpin of a Danish national cuisine and enshrined national identity. In her analysis of cookbooks, Gold detects a shift, documented by other food historians too, in the mid-19th century from descriptive recipes aimed at chefs of the aristocracy to prescriptive reifies aimed at women. Prescriptive cookbooks, both standardized recipes and made it possible for anyone to cook. recipes document the literacy of ordinary women. Then as urban women learned to cook from books, technological innovations increased their capacity to cook at home. The enclosed stove of the late 19th--century, for example. made it possible both to bake at home and to increase the scope of roasting. This book is innovative and enjoyable, which addresses food history at its sources.

Excellent New Text by Grewe and Hieatt
Regarding the LIBELLUS DE ARTE COQUINARIA AN EARLY NORTHERN COOKBOOK, I can report as to exactly what this volume is all about. The LIBELLUS is among the oldestof culinary recipe collections & dates from the early thirteenth century.It survives in 4 versions in three languages... Danish, Icelandic, & Low German. It is thought to date back to possibly even the 12th century. It's a small collection of only 35 recipes and was published as part of the Collection included in AN OLD ICELANDIC MEDICALMISCELLANY [Ms. Royal Irish Academy 23D 43.]in 1931 by Henning Larsen.

What this new 158 page book does is to bring together the four versions, translate them, add textual notes, commentary indices, glossaries, and bibliographies.As such, it offers a rare glimpse into the world of early culinary manuscripts in Northern Europe. I should mention that it's the work of the late Rudolf Grewe (who provided us with the LIBRE DE SENT SOVI in 1979) and Constance B. Hieatt who is of course the scholar behind PLEYN DELIT, CURYE ON INGLYSCH, and AN ORDINANCE OF POTTAGE. The scholarship is as expected excellent.

So, if you collect medieval culinary texts, this is one for yourshelves. Unlike PLEYN DELIT, it does not contain modernized versions of the medieval recipes,but the composite translations offer many details and much commentary for any cook wishing to create their own working versions of these early recipes. ...

Who doesn't love bacon?
In response to the prior review, there's definitely much more here than just instructions on how to cook bacon -- the book includes recipes using bacon in all different kinds of dishes, even dessert, believe it or not! I always find James Villas's books to be thorough and well-written, and this one is no exception -- definitely a great gift for a bacon-lover!

Bacon?...I smell bacon!
This book is but an adjunct to any self-respecting (bacon) cook...I found it interesting, for the most part. I suppose it does make a fine (but lightweight) addition to my massive collection...but then...who doesn't know how to cook bacon? ... Read more
