Jakobsdals x Marianne Haga Kinder: The Amalfi collection

The Amalfi Collection was born during Marianne's journey to the Amalfi Coast, considered one of the most beautiful places in the world, known for its clear green sea, dramatic cliffs, and idyllic beaches.

"As I walked along the shore, I was captivated by the details around me: smooth stones shaped by the passage of time and small pieces of worn tiles scattered in the sand - remnants of something once crafted by hand, now completely united with nature."

These small treasures inspired both the colors and patterns in the collection. The earthy tones from the stones and the muted green hues of the sea are woven together to capture the essence of Amalfi’s natural harmony. The textiles reflect the beauty of the coast - a blend of the raw, the elegant, and the timeless.

"Amalfi" is more than a collection. It's an invitation to bring the calm and simplicity of nature into your home - a small piece of a coast that will forever remain a symbol of inspiration and beauty." – Marianne Haga Kinder

The collection consists of a harmonious blend of textiles for the kitchen, table, and sofa, as well as beautiful wooden serving trays - all inspired by the Italian lifestyle and the scenic beauty of the Amalfi Coast.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, and what could be more inspiring than the Italian food culture? In the Amalfi Collection, you’ll find kitchen textiles that evoke the feeling of rustic Italian kitchens, where the scent of fresh basil, sun-ripened tomatoes, and freshly baked bread fills the air. Beautiful aprons and cooking accessories in earthy tones give the kitchen a sense of timeless elegance and functionality. Dress in the Gusto textiles and cook Marianne's favorite pasta: Pasta Limone di Marianne.

1. Boil the pasta in well-salted water until al dente. Save about 1 dl (½ cup) of pasta water before draining.

2. Heat olive oil and butter in a large pan. Sauté the garlic over medium heat until soft (but not brown!).

3. Add lemon zest and juice, and let it simmer for 1 minute before pouring in the cream.

4. Stir in the grated parmesan and thin out the sauce with a bit of pasta water until it becomes creamy and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Toss the freshly cooked pasta in the sauce and let it absorb the flavors for 1 minute.

6. Serve immediately with fresh herbs, extra parmesan, and toasted pine nuts for some crunch.

This dish captures the essence of the Amalfi Coast - fresh, creamy, and bursting with sun-ripened lemon flavor! 🍋
