Danish traditional food that reflects the northern agricultural climate, where recipes are made of grains, beef, pork, chicken and milk products.
South Jutland is the southern part of the Danish mainland which is connected to Germany. There is some special cuisine which is inspired by German cuisine, thus not common to the rest of Denmark.

Ebleskiver are traditional Danish cakes
* 2 egg whites
* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 1 tablespoon white sugar
* ½ teaspoon baking soda
* ½ teaspoon salt
* 4 tablespoons butter, melted
* 2 cups buttermilk
* 1 cup vegetable oil, for frying
1. Beat the whites stiff.
2. Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, sugar, melted butter and buttermilk at one time and beat until smooth. Gently fold in the egg whites last.
3. Put about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the bottom of each ableskiver pan cup and heat until hot. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of the batter into each cup.
4. As soon as they get bubbly around the edge, turn them quickly. Alternatively, you can turn them halfway first, so that the baked crusts protruding from the pan will look like the Sydney Opera House. And after a while you turn them the remaining 90°. This will give them a perfect ball-shape. (Danish cooks use a long knitting needle, but a fork will work). Continue cooking, turning the ball to keep it from burning.

The cuisine of Denmark can be associated with the food of Scandinavian countries. The Danish cuisine is influenced by other countries like Holland and Sweden and some part of Germany. Freshness of the cooking ingredients is the most significant part of Danish cuisine.
