Sauces
A wonderful cookbook entirely dedicated to sauces
By Tommy Myllymäki
Publisher: Natur & Kultur
The sauce is probably the most important accompaniment to your game meat and Sauces by Tommy Myllymäki is the best sauce cookbook we have been able to find. In the book you will find, for example, viltgräddsås, viltsky med åtta kryddor and recipe på viltfond, all of which are directly adapted to the wild kitchen.
Tommy Myllymäki is one of Sweden's most renowned chefs and one of his absolute strengths as a chef is his sauce knowledge. Classic, modern, cold, hot, rich, sour - always really good sauces. Sauces contains recipes and technique tips for every type of sauce you might need to eat and cook great food at home. From white and red wine sauce, pepper sauce, port wine sauce and béarnaise sauce to cold sauces, vinaigrettes, salsas and dessert sauces. All made the way Tommy thinks they are best.
"The trick to making a really good red wine sauce is to fry the onion properly so that it becomes sweet and tasty. Not burnt, but nicely browned. Then I usually add some beetroot for a nice colour. And some smoked rind for flavour. Finish by reducing it down properly."
Tommy Myllymäki regularly appears on TV4's Nyhetsmorgon and Mitt kök. He won Chef of the Year in 2007 and took silver in the Bocuse d'Or in 2010. He has started a number of restaurants and is involved in at least as many more, most recently his own restaurant Sjön in Jönköping. In 2012, Tommy won the cooking programme Kockarnas kamp - mainly thanks to his sauce skills.
"A goldmine for all ambitious cooks."
Expressen
"A brilliant introduction to the art of sowing."
Kvällsposten
"A book that will help you reach new culinary heights in the kitchen!"
Andreas Grube, Vin & Bar Journalen
"A perfect helper in the kitchen, or a certainly appreciated gift to give to anyone interested in cooking."
Ann-Christin Antonsson, Tranås-Posten
"It was a brilliant choice by Tommy Myllymäki to make "Sauces" his first cookery book. Read it as a recipe book or a sauce encyclopaedia. Great fun for anyone who wants to nerd out on how to make a beurre blanc or whip up a bearnaise."
Stina Cederholm, Svenska Dagbladet
"...the fact is that this could be the most invaluable cookbook you will ever own."
Johan Engman, Sundsvalls tidning

Shipping temperature
All meat is shipped frozen (below -18ºC). When it then reaches you, in some cases it may have thawed a little at the edges, but there is no danger to the quality of the meat and it is definitely not a health risk.
We guarantee that your meat will never reach a temperature above 4ºC during shipping. If for some inexplicable reason this has still happened, please contact us, and we will make sure that we solve it for you in the best way.
Game meat is very durable, thanks in large part to its low fat content, so it's always OK to refreeze the meat without it taking any significant damage. However, we always recommend keeping the meat well chilled below 4ºC and consuming it within 7 days of its arrival.
Environmentally friendly packaging solutions
Sustainable shipping is very important to us. Therefore, we do not use styrofoam, EPS or similar environmentally unfriendly packaging materials. Our packaging is fully recyclable, biodegradable and/or reusable.
Your meat will be packed in a bag made of recycled material. This bag then goes into our designed box along with frozen cooling gel. These cooling gels ensure that the meat stays at the right temperature during the journey to you. The cooling gel is of course food approved and you can reuse it many times over. If you decide to throw them away, do so as they are with other combustible waste. Do not pour the contents into the sink as it may expand slightly in contact with water and clog your drain.
As insulation, we use sheep's wool, nature's own best insulation, to ensure that the meat maintains the right temperature during transport. Sheep wool is 100% degradable and you can put it on the compost (but take it out of the thin plastic cover first) or reuse it for different purposes. The box is made of 100% recycled cardboard and can be left in paper recycling.
