The Great Book of Mince

Helle Øder Valebrokk

A celebration of the world’s most versatile ingredient. Everyone loves mince, the humble hero that has fed generations. Is it politically incorrect to embrace it in 2026? Maybe. But this book isn’t about eating more meat but it’s about eating it better, with creativity, respect and joy. The Great Book of Mince unlocks the full flavour potential of every variety of mince. With 60 recipes from around the world, it transforms mince from everyday necessity to culinary adventure: authentic Bolognese and green lasagne from Italy, the ultimate smashburger and chili con carne from America, Nordic comfort food, Mediterranean classics, Asian street favourites and Latin American spice. Richly photographed and packed with inspiration, this is a globe-trotting tribute to the ingredient we all know and one we’ll never see the same way again.
