Civilization Starts at the Dinner Table | Trine Hahnemann

Trine Hahnemann is a Danish chef and food writer known for more than 20 cookbooks on Scandinavian home cooking, including Copenhagen Food, Scandinavian Green and Midnight Sun. In this episode she talks about why she thinks fine dining has peaked, what hygge actually means before it gets sold as a throw blanket and why she was only ever given two meatballs at dinner. We get into the Scandinavian model being built on cooking at home rather than going out, her work on the board of Madkulturen teaching kids in Denmark to cook and running a kitchen at a rock festival where 5,000 young people cooked a meal with their friends. She also gets into why vegetables are the more interesting thing to cook, why a bistecca three times a year is a celebration, and what she means when she says there is nothing that connects her more to reality than cooking.
