EGEBJERG BAKKER

Resumé is born from a landscape

From the hills, the soil, and the winds around Egebjerg Bakker in South Funen.
A place I long took for granted.

Only later did I learn to understand it in terms of taste.

What was once a backdrop has become a foundation.
Not as a dogma, but as a direction.

The kitchen takes its point of departure in what is found here.
What grows, lives, and moves in the hills.

When that is not possible, the circle is gently extended to Funen and Denmark.

Always with respect for the ingredient
and for the whole.

The food is personal and rooted.
It does not seek to explain, but to remind.

Simple in its expression.
Precise in its flavor.
Deep in its resonance.

Shaped by forest, hedgerows, fruit, game, and coast.

Resumé is my way of pausing.
A place to land.

An attempt to pass on
what shaped me,
long before I knew I was listening.
