About language:
- My blog is in Danish, since I am a Dane living in Denmark, Europe.
However, there is a Google Translate button at the top right corner of the blog that you can use for translation - it will cramp the text a bit together, so it might be difficult to separate text and explanations from the recipe itself. Maybe it will help if you keep the Danish version in one screen, and open a new one with the translation in it for comparison (I hope this is possible - otherwise you may have to copy one version into a text document - I apologize in advance for the inconvenience, if that turns out to be necessary!).
It has been reported, though, that the Google Translate button will not appear when using Internet Explorer as your browser - if this is a problem, please try and switch to either Google Chrome (which I am using, and can highly recommend!), or Firefox (which has also been tested from my side).
If using Chrome or Firefox is not an option, you should have the possibility to use Google Translate through the Google Toolbar in Internet Explorer.
If neither of these suggestions work for you - please let me know, and if there is a specific recipe you would like to have translated, I will be happy to help.

About conversions:
- Most of my measurements are in Danish/European standards - this means that I don't use cups, oz or lbs in my recipes (well not entirely true - I may use cups, since I am using a lot of American recipes as inspiration, but I will most often convert them to Danish measurements).
I have checked a few translations, to be sure what it does to the conversions - and unfortunately, there is a problem with the Danish measurement dl (meaning deciliter). It will translate 1 dl to 1 cup, and this is NOT correct!
1 dl corresponds approx. 0,43 cup - 1 cup corresponds approx. 2,36 dl.
Please note this before you use a recipe!
Other measurements used are mainly the following:
dl = deciliter (equals approx. 0,43 cup)
l = liter (10 dl - equals approx. 4,25 cups)
g = gram
kg = kilo (1000 g - equals approx. 2,2 lb)
tsk = teaspoon
spsk = tablespoon
stk. = piece/pieces
ds = can
pk = pack/package
About degrees Celcius/Fahrenheit:
Please notice that when using the oven (or BBQ/grill, or other things using degrees), I am using the Celcius system - not Fahrenheit. There are a lot of conversion sites out there (for instance this one), so please remember to convert the degrees.
I hope this helps so noone will end up with inedible results, if they try something out.
Happy cooking!
