What is a traditional Danish breakfast?

A typical Danish breakfast includes white or rye bread with soft cheese, cold meats and sausages, butter, jam and tea or coffee. When it comes to breakfast, Danish food is a mix of simple sweet and savoury flavours.

What does havarti cheese pair well with?

While great on a charcuterie board, Havarti also pairs well with sweet fruits like figs, apples and pears. It’s great alongside jam, which makes it the perfect addition in a sandwich or on toastie for a sweet and savoury flavour. Whether it’s for breakfast or lunch, this light and delicate cheese is always a welcome addition.

Is cheese and egg a good combo?

Cheese and egg are a great combo, as the creaminess of the cheese goes perfectly with the richness of the eggs. You can add cheese slices or soft cheese to go beside a boiled egg and toast, mix it up in your scrambled eggs, or melt it on top of fried eggs for a twist on breakfast staple.
