Butter-fried chanterelles with parsley is a super delicious appetizer you can get either from foraged chanterelles if you are lucky, or in the slightly more expensive supermarkets when they are in season from July to September.
Æbleskiver is served with powdered sugar and berry jam and we often drink Glogg (Gløgg) on the same occasion. The name “Æbleskiver” means “Apple Slices” but nowadays it is made without apples, although I prefer to fill the Æbleskiver with an apple filling so that the recipe lives more up to its name.
Morel Mushroom Quiche with Caramelized Red Onions is a delicate spring recipe. The filling consists of fresh morel mushrooms, thyme, garlic, caramelized red onions, and a mix of eggs, sour cream, and full cream milk. Serve this delicious Morel Mushroom Quiche with a fresh salad for dinner or bring it cold in your packed lunch.
