Winner of the Swedish Meeting Prize
Motivation from the jury - With "Shriveled mushroom with roasted skin", "Kantstött carrot in three ways", "På sista versen", "Ratade skatten" and "Bedagad broccoli" on the menu, fantastic dinners are served made from rescued ingredients from the local store, which would have actually ended up in the garbage.
Our fantastically innovative and passionate chefs Karin Sundgren and Karin Lindberg are behind our sustainable dinner concept No Waste, Just Taste, which is based on a multi-course dinner made only from leftover ingredients. Here, guests are invited to an exciting and different dinner where shrivelled mushrooms and bland broccoli may appear on the menu. The idea is to highlight the importance of reducing food waste and making use of the ingredients we have in the fridge. During the dinner, the chefs are on hand to give ingenious tips on everyday life on how we can cook soup in a snap and create the most flavorful dishes in a fun and easy way.
Karin Sundgren has also published the book No Waste, Just Taste where she has collected her most climate-smart recipes and encourages the use of all parts of the raw material. Karin recently became the Swedish winner of the Gourmand Awards in the Food Waste category and now has the opportunity to win internationally when she competes for Sweden.
