Summer is the first book in a new series where chef and food educator Lise Finckenhagen celebrates each of the four seasons. Summer celebrates the warmest, sunniest season. The book includes recipes for small and large occasions, all built around fresh and healthy Norwegian produce.

You will find delicious food for barbecues and outdoor eating, everything from fried mackerel with sour cream sauce and new potatoes, to grilled chicken and the best white pizza. There will be recipes for warm days when you just want something light, fresh and quick. Asparagus salad, carrot hummus, baked leek and open lasagne. Comfort food for the rainy, gloomy days. A delicious creamy fish soup, butter-fried chanterelle toast, schnitzel of happy pig and a delicious tarte flambée. There are also recipes with vegetables you may grow in your garden, or berries and plants that you can gather while out for a walk. Rhubarb soup, elderflower syrup and veiled plums. And, not to be missed of course, the food for this summer's festive team, with July ribs, birthday cake for summer children and a delicious whole grilled turbot. And much, much more.

With a total of 56 recipes, summer has never tasted better! Summer is the first in a series of cookbooks focused on each season,
