Season 3
New Scandinavian Cooking is a cooking show produced by Tellus Works in which a variety of Scandinavian chefs showcase the different regions and dishes of their home countries of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.
The first, second and fourth seasons were hosted by Norwegian food writer Andreas Viestad, the third season by Swedish chef and television personality Tina Nordström, and the 5th season by Danish Claus Meyer, continuing the Scandinavian theme of the show.
The food is not made in studio but outdoors, on a portable kitchen that is set up on location, often in faraway places, like remote beaches or mountain precipices.
Beginning in 2003, the show debuted on PBS in the United States. It is also aired in about 60 other countries, including China, Germany, Italy, France and South Africa. There are 65 half-hour episodes in five seasons.
New Scandinavian Cooking airs in South Africa on DStv's BBC Food channel.

New Scandinavian Cooking with Tina Nordström
(Season 3)
The beauty of Sweden is on full display in New Scandinavian Cooking with Tina Nordström. Equal parts travel, cooking and adventure, the series is a culinary journey through a land of breathtaking sights and irresistible food.
Host Tina Nordström is a professional chef and the author of three acclaimed cookbooks on Scandinavian cuisine. A mainstay on Swedish TV, she was voted the country's most popular female television personality for two consecutive years.
Armed with a custom-designed, portable kitchen and an appetite for excitement, Tina showcases the best of Swedish culture and food.
The same curiosity that drives her to tackle the physical challenges of the region — such as ice-swimming, paragliding and reindeer racing — leads her to also seek out and reinvent some of the country's finest recipes.
From savoury seafood dishes and hearty winter stews to creative desserts and pastries, Tina brings an elegant simplicity to the preparation of traditional ingredients and the creation of thoroughly modern meals.
