Classic Danish Cuisine

Are you dreaming of minced beef steak with soft onions? Or maybe roast pork with parsley sauce? Then you're in the right place. Grandma's kitchen is trendy again and people no longer look at you strangely when you ask for Brændende Kærlighed(Burning Love) or Benløse fugle (boneless birds).
