In this category you will find Danish recipes.

Among the Nordic countries, Denmark is the southernmost and also the smallest. The peninsula of Jutland shares its southern border with Germany and is connected to the two major islands of Funen and Zealand by bridges. Formed by the movement and melting of Ice Age glaciers, the 4.3 million hectares landscape is fl at and fertile, and more than 60 percent of the land is cultivated. The climate is tempered and fairly distinct in four annual seasons. Denmark is home to various types of agricultural production from animal products such as [[pork]], [[beef]], [[poultry]] and [[dairy]] to [[vegetable]] products including [[potato]] starch and grass seeds, as well as traditional [[grain]] and [[vegetable]] crops. New trends in Scandinavian gastronomy have propelled Danish chefs and food products to international fame.

Danish culinary heritage has been cultivated and improved for many generations and is mainly rooted from the old country kitchen with ancient food recipes from all over the Danish kingdom, created first and foremost - as a shield to protect the Danes against the cold weather conditions in Denmark. This is why the Danes for centuries have eaten a lot of [[meat]] - especially loads of [[pork]] - but also [[beef]] together with plenty of [[potatoes]] and [[vegetables]]. [[Poultry]] and [[fish]] products are the Danes second choice. The cold and often wet climate in Denmark requires a lot of food with high nutritional values that contains many vitamins - minerals and proteins to mobilise a great potion of energy - which is a vital source - needed for work - at school - for sports and other form of daily activities. The natural content and ingredients in Danish food has been built up for centuries and flavoured to match the taste of the traditional eating habits of the Danish people from region to region and up to this century. To preserve food in olden days - the items of [[meat]] - [[fish]] and [[fruit]] was either salted - [[smoked]] or [[brine]]-[[pickled]] and could be stored for a very long time. The modern Danish kitchen uses many old recipes from the non refrigeration period - and is still highly preferred and enjoyed at the dinner tables in Denmark.

[[Rye]] [[bread]] and [[beer]] has for thousands of years been a basic part of the daily food consumption and later [[potatoes]] and heavy [[gravy]] was the main supplement to [[fish]] and [[meat]] dishes. The present Danish food culture is still very traditional and conservative - and is nevertheless based on deep-rooted recipes prepared during generations and centuries - in spite of influence from foreign countries and cultures. Almost every Danish restaurant in Copenhagen serve the traditional "open faced [[sandwich]]" called "smørrebrød" - with many different potions of food items as cold cuts - pieces of [[meat]] or [[fish]] - various pastes - [[salad]] [[dressings]] and [[cheese]] on buttered [[rye]] [[bread]] and decorated with all types of toppings that gives the creation a great visual appeal - and is surely a piece of genuine art - when presented on a well laid table with cold Danish [[beer]] and snaps.

====Danish cheese====
We have the following Danish cheese category, though we could do with some help with the images as some of these are difficult to obtain in the United Kingdom.
