  • Swedish chef Niklas Ekstedt offers Michelin-level gastronomy, prepared without electricity and gas - he creates his extraordinary cuisine over an open fire. Fire, ash and smoke are simply the ingredients. His hope for the future is that his Stockholm restaurant - Ekstedt - may be able to operate without any electricity at all.

    This is giving back Swedish food the flavor it originally had.

    Loved that. All throughout my childhood cooking on coals have been the norm. And I agree that dishes cooked on coals have that distinct aroma that adds toward more pleasant eating experience indeed. Much more having such remarkable woody scent of twigs typical in Scandinavia.

    Only in the 'developed' First World that most have lost this pleasure of simplicity that nature provides or has provided for thousands of years. People living in poorer developing countries still rely on coal and wood for kitchen fuels; some out of necessity and others out of choice.

    Pumpkin grilled on fire is just something else. The meats.. the truth is that you just get used to everything, so it just taste better only if you eat it every couple months. The fish is also on another level, always worth, no matter how often, lamb.. I am bias cose I love it in every way. I agree with the chef, taking the fire out of the cooking it was just a convenience, is safer, but in terms of flavour the progress toke us backward. Should this cooking method be back on fashion? that would be a lot of smoke. Depending from wind direction, you can smell a nice bbq from more than half a mile.

    I wonder how much consideration he has given to the coatings on some of the metal high temperature cooking utensils he uses. I saw some galvanized screen in there at one point. Also, I would be terrified to use the "cheap" strainer over an open flame. No telling what Chinese alloy and corrosion resistant coating it has.
    In addition, I hope he's checking for toxins that some of the grasses and other fuel sources may give off during the burning process.
    Coming from the bbq business, these are things to consider.
    If he has thoroughly vetted all these items, he needs to mention it. It's a huge threat that citizens need to know about.
    Many "healthy foods" being prepared out there in ways that are actually poisoning folks.

    OK, the food should be good but it is a bit pretentious. He is using a wood burning stove to cook with pans, what's the point. It is environmentally really bad to burn wood when he could just have a gas stove.

      There are literally 3 restaurants in the world that cook like this… so how about going after Cargill or companies with real agendas?
      These guys are doing something good and, just like their produce, sustainability is paramount for them.
