TIDSAMM: The joy of cooking together

TIDSAMM is not just a concept; it is an invitation, a movement that encourages Belgians to rediscover the kitchen as a place for shared experiences. Think of it as the new ‘fika’ – that Swedish ritual of getting together and drinking coffee – but translated into the dynamics of cooking. TIDSAMM stands for ‘time together’, and that is exactly what we want to encourage: more quality time in the kitchen, together with family and friends.

In a world where efficiency and speed often prevail, TIDSAMM offers a welcome counterbalance. It is a plea for slowing down, for conscious togetherness, and for reevaluating cooking as a shared activity. Imagine: no longer standing alone at the stove, but cutting vegetables, tasting, and catching up together. Your kitchen is transformed from a functional workplace into a lively meeting place, where the smell of freshly prepared food mingles with the warmth of togetherness.

TIDSAMM is more than just cooking together; it is a philosophy that brings the kitchen back to its fundamental role as the social center of the home. It's about sharing recipes, passing on family traditions, learning from each other, and simply enjoying each other's company while the meal is being prepared. It's the place where children take their first steps into the culinary world, where friendships are deepened, and where everyday worries give way to pure, unforced conviviality.
