Gestalten - Delicious Wintertime - The Cookbook for Cold Weather Adventures

Winter adventures require warm, hearty meals enjoyed with friends next to a wood stove. The call of the wild has never tasted this good.

When the temperature drops, out come the winter sweaters, and our appetites for snowy adventures and warm, hearty meals. Alpine-inspired breakfasts kick-start an active day, while thermos-fillers and trail mixes fuel ski trips or family outings. The shorter days bring leisurely evenings with good friends and slow-cooked food. Enjoy bread dumplings, gnocchi, or roast chicken and root vegetables next to the stove. Sip homemade liqueurs or hot chocolate. Chef and nature explorer Markus Sämmer guides readers into the mountains for Delicious Wintertime, featuring recipes to celebrate the season. Served with a side of action photography, and tales from the backcountry, Delicious Wintertime is sure to stir the senses.

Markus Sämmer is a chef, author, and outdoor enthusiast with a passion for Alpine winter cuisine. Having skied since the age of three, Sämmer began to develop these recipes while working as an instructor in the Alps. He has since created a rich selection of recipes which work just as well at a chalet and at home.
