This was our traditional Christmas Eve dinner. I loved it, my sister, not so much. It is very rich, but very delicious. My mom would serve it over smashed boiled potatoes. -- posted by dawnie2u

Swedish Spritz Cookies

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 20:44:44 -0400

For these you will need a cookie press. The cookie press works a lot like a Play-Doh toy, and usually comes with an assortment of round disc templates for squirting out stars, hearts, pinwheels, shamrocks, Christmas trees, deco braid, and camels - Watch out, they spit! -- posted by AB_Fan

Sillgratin ( Swedish Herring Casserole)

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 21:52:43 -0400

This is a traditional herring potato casserole. It wills serve 6 for dinner or 8 or more for a smorgasborg. Times do not reflect the soaking time if using salt herring. If Salt herring is not available see variations below or use a firm fleshed white fish as substitute. -- posted by Alskann

Swedish Sailor Stew (Sjömansbiffgryta)

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 22:04:03 -0400

This is a very simple, typical Swedish family stew that delivers a taste that is oh so satisfying. Make it in an enameled cast iron casserole or other oven safe dish because this goes into a very hot oven for quite a while. All the liquid gets absorbed and the casserole becomes good and crusty - but delicious! -- posted by Alskann

Swedish Cornbread

Tue, 19 Jun 2007 22:05:38 -0400

I found this recipe in the November 1995 issue of Bon Appetit. It is a moist, sweet cornbread that makes a nice accompaniment to breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also delicious right out of the oven slathered in butter. You can prepare it a day ahead, just cool the bread completely, cover with foil and store at room temperature. This also makes yummy muffins. -- posted by Alskann

My Family's Swedish Glogg

Tue, 26 Jun 2007 22:00:51 -0400

Nothing makes our Christmas complete like a pot of Glogg on the stove, filling the house (and our bellies) with it's intoxicating warmth and aroma. You'll need to keep the Port wine bottles you use, or you might want to use old, smaller wine bottles if giving them as gifts. Just soak them in hot soapy water to remove the labels, and then create your own label on the computer. (Just be ready to give it every year, because the demand will be high.) You'll also need a large stainless steel soup pot with a cover, a strainer, and a funnel. For the dried fruit pieces, you may want to buy one mixed bag of dried fruit and just take what you need for the recipe. -- posted by KissKiss

Pickled Herring Nana's Recipe (Or so Close)

Fri, 24 Aug 2007 23:23:46 -0400

When my mom passed at 94 she took Nana's recipe for pickled herring to the grave. She taught me to soak and filet the salt herring, but ran me out of the house when the pickling solution was prepared. This is as close as it gets. If you have a variation with these ingredients please email me! T.J. -- posted by davinandkennard

Amazing & Easy Basic Crepes

Mon, 27 Aug 2007 18:01:23 -0400

I got this recipe from an OLD "Pillsbury Kitchens' Family Cookbook". I have been using this recipe since I was in High School, so that should tell you how EASY they are to put together and they are such a hit! You can do anything with them. Add fruits for a yummy breakfast dish, chicken and cheeses for a dinner dish (VERY good), or sweet fillings and powdered sugar for a dessert. -- posted by Ms. Baker

Swedish Spareribs

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 15:28:07 -0400

I mentioned to a friend at work that I was looking for something other than a barbeque sauce for pork ribs. The next day she brought me a recipe for "Swedish Spareribs" that her mother had gotten off of the internet-not Zaar. The secret ingredient is allspice. These are so simple to prepare and you probably have all the ingredients in your pantry. These are so flavorful and tender, they take spareribs to a whole new level! -- posted by yooper

Swedish Meatballs from 1960's

Tue, 11 Sep 2007 22:22:43 -0400

I clipped this recipe from a magazine almost 40 years ago (started collecting recipes in my teen years). I must have made this recipe at least zillion times (LOL) and that's how much I love this recipe. Since my first introduction to Swedish meatballs through this recipe, I've tried many different variations. Some I like a lot like that one from Aquavit by Marcus Samuelsson and others, well, they were one time only recipes. But, I keep coming back to this recipe when I want Swedish meatballs. I kept it as -my own- secret recipe, but it's time to share with everyone. Hope you enjoy! Goes really well with egg noodles. Note: if you don't have fines herbs, just use any combination of herbs. I use Kitchen Bouquet for liquid gravy seasoning, but if this is not readily available, you can use other gravy seasoning. If you don't have green scallions, you can use all dill. The taste of dill is important in this recipe. The earlier version had chives and dill but since most people no longer keep chives, this recipe was changed to green scallions and dill. -- posted by Rinshinomori

Smoked Salmon Butter

This is so nice on toast, warm french bread or crackers. Found it in a Swedish food magazine. -- posted by Chef Dudo

Who doesn't like smoked salmon? But with the prices these days, who can afford it? Here's an easy and less expensive presentation of salmon to be served as you would the smoked variety. I prefer the fresh, aromatic taste of this salmon cured with juniper berries than I do the smoked. Serve with a mustard sauce or with buttered dark bread rounds and a squeeze of lemon. -- posted by Trinkets

Swedish Apple Cake

Sat, 13 Oct 2007 02:09:53 -0400

This is a super easy, super tasty recipe that my mom used to make all of the time when I was a kid. This is a wonderful dessert (or even breakfast) in the fall--though it is more like a cobbler then a cake (the more apples you use, the more cobbler-like)! Also, I'm not sure that it really is a Swedish recipe as it was shared by a Greek neighbor, but it is still great! Update: I realize that it seems strange, but this recipe really doesn't need extra leavening--I have double-checked a number of times as it seems like it should have some! Though I don't think it would hurt to add some... :-) -- posted by Dwynnie

Professor's Chocolatecake (Professorns Chokladkaka)

Sat, 13 Oct 2007 20:50:38 -0400

Yeah, yeah, I know, there are zillions of chocolatecakes on Zaar. This one though I remember from my youth in Sweden. Gooey, rich. What makes it Swedish? Maybe the hazelnuts. Why it is called Professor's? No idea, what's in a name? -- posted by Chef Dudo

Cold Mustard Sauce

Sun, 14 Oct 2007 00:31:47 -0400

Found this in a little booklet with Swedish recipes. This sauce is usually served with smoked salmon, marinated salmon or with other fish. I have sometimes also used it as a dip with fresh vegetables. -- posted by Chef Dudo

Christmas Bread (Jule Kaga)

Fri, 09 Nov 2007 22:41:38 -0500

Fruit and Cheese Blintz or Breakfast Crepes

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 00:22:33 -0500

One of my favorite breakfasts, easy and quick to make and they go fast! Some of my recommendations for a little twist (I mix and match!): -If you desire sweeter crepes, omit the salt and add 2 tablespoons sugar -Try spreading a little cream cheese before filling the crepes -Add 1/4 cup of fresh berries, your choice (corresponding to your yogurt flavor, I recommend strawberry, which should be thinly sliced) -Garnish with whipping cream is desired -- posted by Hydra

Pepparkakor Cookies

Thu, 03 Jan 2008 22:54:47 -0500

This is the recipe we used for my daughters Girl Scout troop on international day about 10 years or so ago and Ive been making ever since. I think this recipe is a little different from most Pepparkakor recipes because it uses a little maple syrup. The recipe was handed out by the troop leader and if I recall correctly, it is from the American Girl Cookbook-Kristens Cookbook but Iam not 100 % sure anymore-its been awhile;) -- posted by Antifreesz

Nougat With Almonds & Hazelnuts

Mon, 07 Jan 2008 16:53:37 -0500

This candy is really simple to make and is very tasty...great for any occasion, especially if you're rather strapped for time! Look for hazelnut nougat in the baking aisle or in specialty cooking shops. It's the same stuff that's on the inside of Three Musketeers bars, so if you're desperate, you can peel off the chocolate coating and use that (yes, I have done this!). -- posted by damienducks

Swedish Biscotti

Tue, 22 Jan 2008 23:45:20 -0500

This recipe comes from my husband's grandmother. In Swedish it is called Svenska Mandel Skorpar or Swedish Toast. It resembles biscotti but has cardamon in it not chocolate nor anise. It is wonderful with tea and keeps well if stored in a dry container. The best flavor of cardamon is fresh--remove the outside pod, put the seeds into a plastic ziplock bag, put the sealed bag on cement floor, and pound with a hammer and you have ground cardamon. This is the method my MIL taught me:) The original recipe says "a pinch of salt and soda" so that is why I have it here that way:) -- posted by WiGal

Lingonberry Butter

Mon, 11 Feb 2008 03:10:35 -0500

Lingonberries are an amazing little berry from Sweden that taste sort of like a cranberry. Lingonberry preserves are tangy, sweet, and all around good. They are readily available online and in some IKEA and specialty stores. This compound butter is an excellent accompaniment to crepes, store bought Swedish pancake mix, or even toast. The serving size is approximate, but it makes a considerable amount. -- posted by Anjelphyre

Ikea Swedish Meatballs

Tue, 25 Mar 2008 22:11:36 -0400

I know there is already an "ikea swedish meatballs" recipe on here, but this one is right from the source :) This calls for "unsweetened rusk flour" which is obviously not available in the US. It literally translates to "toasted breadcrumbs" So I just use PLAIN breadcrumbs, I can't taste a difference in the meatballs. You could also toast up some panko in butter in a pan and out them in a baggie of some sort and crush them till their fine...but either way... I'm not sure of the "yield" here it depends how many meatballs you gove people to eat and how big the meatballs are made ;) -- posted by Dee_73

Napoleon's Hat (Cookies)

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 13:27:26 -0400

A very popular cookie in Sweden. When I was about 12 years old (ages ago.........) we had lessons in cooking at school and I can remember making these cookies. This recipe comes from the little (now tattered) cookbook we used for these lessons. Chilling time is not included in preparation time. -- posted by Chef Dudo

Fri, 27 Jun 2008 16:32:02 -0400

Wed, 09 Jul 2008 01:31:32 -0400

This is my friend Adam's mother's recipe... and it is terrific. Some notes... please do NOT substitute dried dill for the fresh dill, and be sure you buy your salmon fillets with the skin on (take care to remove any little bones with a tweezer). MANY people like to put the soggy onions that you remove at the end of this recipe on their bagels, so bring it along for an extra treat. Also - at the very end, I like to rinse the fillet before I cut it; my dad prefers not to. -- posted by Miss Suz

Swedish Ginger Cookies

Found this on a Swedish recipe site some time ago. It makes a lot of cookies but they keep well and can also be frozen.

Mellow Glogg for a Freezing Night

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 14:00:18 -0400

Just like you buy from the Christmas Glogg stands in Scandinavia. This is alchoholic but mellow and needs overnight preparation and the beer to soften the alchohol flavour. Well worth the effort but IT MUST BE COLD OUTSIDE! You can make the base flavouring and then store and make in smaller quantities later. -- posted by Pendiya

Plain Dumplings (Spatzen)

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 20:29:17 -0400

Swedish Meatballs

Wed, 10 Sep 2008 00:33:34 -0400

I love this version of Swedish Meatballs. I have no idea how "authentic" it is, but I enjoy it. Instead of using half-and-half I usually use all milk but the half-and-half will make a creamier sauce. You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for half the ground beef, but I wouldn't substitute it for more than half the ground beef because you want the drippings for making the gravy. I normally serve this over mashed potatoes. -- posted by Twig #2

There are several versions of this recipe. This one has evolved from rainy autumn afternoons in the company of a coup of tea, a film and a friend. It works just fine without the dark chocolate, which also can be substituted with basically any chocolate of your preferrance. However, the cocoa is essential; add as much as you please.

Fri, 17 Oct 2008 01:08:14 -0400

If you like meatballs or meatloaf, you would love this sausage. DH's great grandparents all came from Sweden so he grew up with potato sausage. Our family loves it! Fortunately when we are in Wisconsin we can buy the best potato sausage only about 20 miles from here. You buy it frozen and defrost it before baking. And when I was still working, I would set it up in my oven using a frozen potato sausage on time delay. -- posted by WiGal

Swedish Limpa Bread

Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:58:44 -0500

Limpa bread is a traditional Swedish rye bread which is flavored with molasses, anise, and orange peel. Limpa bread is moist and extremely flavorful with a rich, almost intoxicating odor. This bread is extremely popular in Sweden and in areas with a large Swedish population. This recipe is also easily made into rolls, if you wish.

Plättar Med Lingon - Swedish Pancakes With Lingonberries

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 23:06:32 -0500

As one might guess from the name, this very thin pancake hails from Sweden. Swedish Pancakes can be served for breakfast, but Swedes also prepare them for supper accompanied with a bowl of hearty pea soup. Unlike the thicker American "flap jack", the Swedish pancake is more like the French crepe. Rather than syrup, the pancakes are usually garnished with lingonberries, a tart red berry, and sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Depression Mustard, Egg, Vinegar Sauce - Slaw,lettuce or Pork

Thu, 19 Mar 2009 01:20:29 -0400

I do not see eggs cooked in any dressing except hard boiled and sliced. This dressing is very adaptable. It is cooled before drizzling on cabbage, warm for lettuce and warm for drizzling on sliced pork This is simple and cheap. Thus the name and in this economy we need inexpensive recipes. I triple this for large portion of potato salad also after you have salted and peppered the potatos and hard boiled eggs and onions and added celery seed. -- posted by Montana Heart Song

A nearly one hundred year-old German-Swedish sauerbraten recipe handed down from my grandmother Jennie. There are literally hundreds of sauerbraten recipes on the internet. I've tried many, but I always return to this one (wouldn't have anything to do with my fondness for my grandma, would it?). It's simple and on the sweet side, but the sugar in the marinade makes for a tender and delectible roast. -- posted by Magic Jeff

Ginger Snaps (Pepparkakor)

Mon, 04 May 2009 14:13:43 -0400

Christmas just wouldn't be Christmas without these cookies on the Smorgasboard table. We cut them in all kinds of shapes, stars, hearts, goats, reindeer, you name it. Don't just save them for the holidays, however, these are great any time of the year. It's key to roll these very thin before cutting out, as that is what gives the cookie it's traditional "snap". These cookies are a bit of work, but the dough freezes beautifully, so make a batch of dough, cut and bake a few, then freeze the rest for another day. -- posted by IngridH

This is a "must have" on our Christmas dessert table, but it is equally as good any time of year, or for any occasion. Although I use berries, it is wonderful with all different fresh fruits, such as kiwi or peaches. It is also very versatile and can be layered with fruit in a parfait dish if you prefer, nestled in a puff pastry or dessert shell, or set in a mold. We always serve it in one large stemmed glass bowl. Preparation time does not include chilling time. -- posted by JackieOhNo!

Creamlessly Delicious Swedish Meatball Sauce

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 03:35:49 -0400

I've been using this recipe from "Meals with a Foreign Flair" cookbook for many years. I'm not much for cream sauces and this one stands on its own without the rich cream. The instant coffee really picks this up. Generally, I buy the frozen Swedish meatballs and pour this sauce over the finished product. Sure beats the hassle of preparing the meatballs from scratch. -- posted by Magic Jeff

Just Perfect Turkey Swedish Meatballs

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:25:03 -0400

These meatballs are some of the best I ever had. They have a light texture, a delicate balance of spices, and a nice creamy sauce. The recipe, with just one small change, comes from a package of Just Perfect seasoned ground turkey. Note that there is not much sauce, so if you want a lot of sauce, you might want to double the liquids and the flour. These meatballs are good over noodles or rice. -- posted by Anya

One of our family's favorites. Taken from a swedish cookbook Mrs Malm got for my mother from Sweden. We usually made a thin white cream sauce in the pan the meatballs cooked in, or used a can of cream of mushroom soup. Have with mashed potatos and cooked vegetables. -- posted by Lee_tah

Swedish Chocolate Cake

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:58:57 -0400

Usually this includes a lot of additional eggs, sugar and butter but no flour - which makes it good as well but somewhat richer. I changed the recipe as i could not be bothered to whip the egg whites and care for the batter to cool down in order to add the yolks. So i went for a little four instead and gave it a try. What a treat! I love it! It is just too easy to be good :-) Enjoy with vanilla icecream. Note: You can use any chocolate you like but i recomend good quality chocolate with at leat 60% cacao. -- posted by Iceland

Sugar, Salt & Vinegar Red Tomatoes

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 14:38:01 -0400

I just reviewed a Sugar Glazed Fried Green Tomato recipe on Zaar and it reminded me of a recipe I use constantly during the summer and it is not posted. My mother stated it was Swedish and my father stated it was German or Bavarian. Very simple and the marinating juice can be used in soups, stews or vegetable pies. Note: You can use raw sugar also. These tomatoes can be added to a simple lettuce salad and no dressing is necessary or served separately with juice drained. -- posted by Montana Heart Song
