From BernBaum's, the beloved downtown Fargo bagel shop and restaurant, comes a gorgeous, down-to-earth cookbook filled with rustic, hearty Jewish-Scandinavian recipes. Since its closure in 2024, BernBaum's has left a bagel-shaped hole in Fargo, North Dakota's restaurant scene. The surprising harmony of Icelandic-meets-Jewish dishes made BernBaum's a hit in Fargo and beyond, earning chef Andrea Baumgardner praise from the New York Times and Food and Wine. Now, BernBaum's: Recipes from Fargo's Nordic-Jewish Deli gathers the best recipes from the renowned restaurant to bring Nordic noshes right to your home. With trademark charm, Baumgardner shares her rustic, cook-friendly food philosophy, the humble roots of BernBaum's, and a tempting array of Jewish-Scandinavian recipes that embrace the joy of improvisation and bring families and cultures together. From the legendary shakshuka focaccia Nordic lamb meatloaf with lingonberries and labneh, classics like chicken or vegan matzoh ball soup, or mouth-watering sweets like rugelach with fig and chocolate hazelnut filling, the cookbook captures this unique deli's most iconic recipes, beginning with the "perfectly blistered exterior of one very fine bagel" (Food and Wine).
