Come and hang out in the kitchen with crime writer Camilla Läckberg and culinary creative Eleonora von Essen in a warm, generous cookbook brimming with delicious recipes and pure food joy. Great food runs like a common thread through their friendship – and through life itself: weekday routines, cozy nights on the couch, dinner parties and mingling, and even the conversations that follow heartbreak.

One day it might be Norwegian lobster tartare on rice paper; the next, a simple tomato soup or a build-your-own burger spread loaded with the best toppings. Fried bananas with ice cream one evening, baked cheese and wine the next – it all depends on what life calls for. Because food is memory, too: Dad’s elk patties, made just the way he used to, and freshly steamed mussels that taste like summer in Fjällbacka.

Camilla and Eleonora celebrate every side of a lifelong love of food – how it shows up in good times and bad, how it brings us together to celebrate, to comfort, or simply to enjoy in our own company. This is a cookbook for anyone who loves great food and believes every moment is worth savouring.
