North: The New Nordic Cuisine of Iceland by Gunnar Karl Gislason and Jody Eddy is not just a cookbook, but a beautifully illustrated introduction to Iceland, its people, its history and its culinary world. Many of the recipes and techniques make upscale dishes comprised of a multitude of ingredients and steps. This is a perfect gift for a serious, experienced cook or anyone who loves travel and culture!
North is Gíslason's wonderfully personal debut: equal parts recipe book and odyssey, it offers an unparalleled look into a star chef's creative process. But more than just a collection of recipes, North is also a celebration of Iceland itself--the inspiring traditions, stories, and people who make the island nation unlike any other place in the world.

This article is by me, Jason Logsdon. I'm an adventurous home cook and professional blogger who loves to try new things, especially when it comes to cooking. I've explored everything from sous vide and whipping siphons to pressure cookers and blow torches; created foams, gels and spheres; made barrel aged cocktails and brewed beer. I have also written 10 cookbooks on modernist cooking and sous vide and I run the AmazingFoodMadeEasy.com website.
My FREE email course will help you make perfect meats, master searing, and discover the sous vide times and temperatures you need to make everyday food amazing...and impress your friends and family.
