Our copy (it was originally Mom's) is in shreds. We have used it since before I can remember, perhaps before I was born. The first recipe I ever made (except for peeling and slicing the cucumbers; I was about five years old) was Pressgurka (page 16). Also recommend the meatballs, deviled eggs, and the fishballs. The fishballs are similar to are recipe I found in my Scottish Grandmother's cookbook--they were, of course, catching the same fish from opposite sides of the North Sea!
This is a show more terrific cookbook, second only to Culinary Arts Institute Encyclopedic Cookbook in our family. But we do have the 1955 edition, so it reflects an older style of Scandinavian cooking. For a more modern take, check out Scandinavian Feasts. show less

Uses: "Prepare cake mix according to directions." and "Use 3/4 cup mincemeats." For the average cook. Salmon berger uses 1 16 oz. can salmon. I want to start with: "Use about 1 Lb. left over salmon. However, there is a good section on microwave cooking.
