Another recipe from a fantastic cookbook given to me my my wonderful mother, many Christmas's ago.... Posted for ZWT3.
I have not tried this recipe from Scandinavia, but after posting it, I do intend to. This is evidentaly a popular way of serving swedes in Finland and usualy is anaccompaniment to pork or ham. Swedes can be substituted with turnips.
