While in Stockholm last week, I was able to try Marcus Samuelsson's Street Food restaurant. Samuelsson's fast food joint is located inside the main train station. I had read about it on a blog a while ago and was curious to try it.
2 Ingredient Recipes
My mother is a reader of Woman's Day Magazine (whose recipes I usually love) and she passed on these 2 ingredient recipe cards to me. Sure, some of them are a little odd and I will probably never, ever attempt, but there were a few that immediately grabbed my attention and I can't wait to try out! (Pineapple with coconut sorbet...:DROOL:)
