New Scandinavian Cooking

New Scandinavian Cooking is a Scandinavian cooking show which over the course of five seasons was hosted by Andreas Viestad, Tina Nordström and Claus Meyer, produced by Tellus Works in collaboration with American Public Television (APT).^[1] A sequel series titled Perfect Day continued with the original hosts in rotation, with the cast addition of Sara La Fountain.^[2]

Beginning in 2003, the show debuted on PBS in the United States (72% of the 347 regional PBS channels).^[3] It has also been broadcast in more than 130 other countries,^[1] including United Kingdom, China, Germany, Italy and France, according to the show's producers a viewership of 100 million per episode.^[4] The first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth seasons were hosted by Norwegian food writer Andreas Viestad, the third season by Swedish chef and television personality Tina Nordström, and the fifth season was hosted by Danish chef and cookbook author Claus Meyer. The sequel series Perfect Day rotated the original hosts Viestad, Nordström and Meyer, with the addition of Finnish TV chef Sara La Fountain.

The success of the series is in part due to its original format and its hosts. The food is not prepared in a studio but executed on location outdoors, at a mobile kitchen often situated in faraway places, such as remote beaches or mountain precipices. The hosts showcase different regions and dishes of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Greenland.
