Swedish cuisine - 15 cooking recipes

The culinary traditions of Sweden do not pamper gourmets with exquisite recipes - the northern climate does not contribute to the variety of menus. But the whole world has adopted this country’s way of organizing food: the buffet is as practical and laconic as Swedish cuisine in general.

Swedish cuisine

Swedish food preparation traditions are to some extent similar to Russian ones - the same habits of stocking up for future use, preferring menus for long-term storage. The products are mainly used by those that the local land is rich in: fish, legumes, seasonal fruits and vegetables, all kinds of meat - venison, horse meat, game... Among the most interesting recipes of Swedish cuisine it is worth noting: 1) Roast... with jam. In fact, this is lingonberry sauce, it tastes sweet and sour, it turns out very piquant. Sauces are a common ingredient for any dish; they replace seasonings and spices. Also, the Swedes, the European record holders for sugar consumption per person per year, can make even traditionally salty foods sweeter. 2) Fermented herring, which is considered a delicacy. Herring is the most consumed product; the local population knows dozens of ways to prepare it, including such an unusual one - by fermentation. They say this is the most terrible dish in the world. But perhaps they simply didn’t learn how to cook such fish correctly.
