An evening dedicated to sustainability
Guests were treated to a surprising taste experience where the chefs demonstrated their ingenuity and passion for sustainable cooking.
The dinner was created from only leftover ingredients in season that were available that day. As planning and purchasing were not possible, the menu was not announced until at the table. It takes unique cooking skills to "cook soup on a nail". The evening began with a welcome drink in the beautiful turn-of-the-century villa Skärtofta.
The guests were then invited to the table and enjoyed a range of creative and tasty dishes. The chefs came out during dinner and talked about the menu and shared tips and tricks about sustainable cooking. "No Waste, Just Taste" was a success and showed that it is possible to cook both good and beautiful food without wasting resources.
The evening inspired new thoughts about cooking and consumption and contributed to focusing on the problem of food waste. Image below: Menu at table setting, which is presented when the guests sit down at the table.
