All done!
Are you ready to meet your perfect kitchen match?

Calm, intimate and oh so dreamy, we think your perfect kitchen match is...

Cosy culinary

You’re thoughtful and creative, the kind who’d rather linger over an intimate dinner with close friends or a cosy evening for two, where the conversation drifts from your latest read to whether dessert really needs plates, or if two spoons will do. The flexible METOD kitchen can be shaped around you and used as a canvas to create the cottage-core kitchen of your dreams. Just add your type of front and consider it your perfect date: attentive, reliable, and the sort you’ll never tire of spending time with.

Classic Swedish salmon & potato bake

This recipe is a keeper. It’s warm, comforting, made for cosy nights in, and the best part: you can sneak in a chapter or two while it’s in the oven.

100 g SJÖRAPPORT cold smoked salmon 
100 g SJÖRAPPORT cured cold smoked salmon 
3 yellow onions 
2 tbsp butter 
1 kg potatoes, peeled and boiled 
4 eggs 
3 dl milk 
1 dl cream 
1/2 tsp salt 
2 ml black pepper 
Dill 
Butter for the oven dish

A white dish of smoked salmon and potato bake rests on a white tablecloth, ready to be served.

Serves 6-10, 60 mins

2. Peel and thinly slice the onion, then saute it in butter over low heat until golden brown. 
3. Thinly slice the potatoes. 
4. Thinly slice the salmon fillets.
