Rediscovering your food culture (and Nordic baked goods) with Magnus Nilsson

Salt & Spine

SALT + SPINE is hosted by Brian Hogan Stewart and produced by Alison Sullivan.

Today's Episode: Magnus Nilsson

It's episode three of Baking Week! Today, we're excited to welcome Magnus Nilsson to SALT + SPINE, the podcast on stories behind cookbooks.

Magnus is the author of The Nordic Cookbook and his latest, The Nordic Baking Book. He's also the head chef of Fäviken, his two Michelin star restaurant 400 miles north of Stockholm. On this episode of Salt + Spine’s special Baking Week, we sat down with Magnus at The Civic Kitchen in San Francisco to talk all things Nordic baking, his cookbooks, and a Nordic tradition around birthday cakes.

Plus, Paula Forbes, editor of Stained Page News, shares her top baking books this fall.
