One shared lunch.<\/p>\n<p>This week, lunchtime is becoming something quite special in our canteens across the country.<\/p>\n<p>We are hosting what is expected to be Denmark\u2019s largest shared lunch across 350 canteens. Up to 100,000 Danes will be served dishes from our new cookbook, SMAG \u2013 our plant-based kitchen. That is almost equivalent to three sold-out Parken stadiums.<\/p>\n<p>But it does not stop at the lunch table. With SMAG, we are launching a consumer edition of the cookbook for the first time, allowing our guests to purchase it in our canteens and take inspiration and gastronomic techniques home to their own kitchens.<\/p>\n<p>The starting point is simple: if plant-based food is to take up more space on the plate, it also needs to deliver more flavour. And we believe the way to achieve that is through taste.<\/p>\n<p>That is why we have developed a cookbook that demonstrates how quality ingredients and gastronomic techniques can elevate meals and create depth of flavour, texture and character.<\/p>\n<p>From pickling and fermentation to confit, crunch and umami. From creamy dressings, spreads and dips to warm, spiced and colourful dishes, flavourful open sandwiches and familiar classics.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, the cookbook will serve as a shared gastronomic reference book that our kitchen colleagues can return to for inspiration when developing everyday meals.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to a week filled with gastronomic inspiration, new taste experiences and, not least, up to 100,000 Danes who will hopefully get a taste of our new cookbook, SMAG.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, dishes from our new cookbook SMAG are being served in 350 canteens across Denmark.
