The Jensen Family Recipe Website

This website has finally been resurrected, continuing the fine keldar.net tradition of spreading intellectual wealth to the world.

It contains recipes passed down over many many generations, from such famous families as:

Jensen literally means "Son of Jens". It is the most common surname in Denmark, from where good old Jens Jensen in 1859. Jens arrived on the Olympia aged 39.

In most of Scandinavia until about 1900 the children were commonly given, as a last name, the fist name of their father plus sen (or son in Deutschland where my mother's father was from) and earlier the daughters were also given the father's first name but with datter instead of sen as an ending. Thus there is no long history of the name Jensen because it changed each generation.

If you have any questions, suggestions or recipes I should put up, please contact me on keldar@geelongfan.com.
