    KÖTTBULLAR OCH LINGONBÄR


     Also known as “Meatballs and Lingonberries”
     Köttbullar is a blend of minced beef, egg, milk, and bread. The mix is rolled into small balls, fried
    in butter, and bathed in brown gravy, with mashed potato, and lingonberry jam on the side.
     Meatballs have been a part of Swedish cuisine for centuries, with the earliest known recipe dating
    back to the 18th century.
     The Swedish furniture company IKEA began serving meatballs in its restaurants in the 1950s, and
    they quickly became a popular menu item in the mid-20th century.
     The modern version of Swedish meatballs today is likely the result of influences from other
    cuisines, such as Turkish and French.
    OSTKAKA
     The ost means "cheese" and kaka means "cake" in Swedish, also known as Swedish
    cheesecake or Swedish curd cake
     Ostkaka has its roots in two different parts of Sweden, Hälsingland and Småland, though
    there are some differences between ostkaka from Hälsingland resembling halloumi in
    texture and the soft-grained ostkaka from Småland.
     The dish is usually eaten lukewarm with a jam or cordial sauce,
    typically cloudberry, cherries, raspberry, or strawberry, though lingonberry is not
    uncommon; as well as fruits, cream, or, more rarely, ice cream.

    KANELBULLE
     Made from lightly sweetened, leavened bread dough known as vetebröd (wheat bread),
    they can also be flavored with cardamom, saffron, and vanilla.
     A kanelbulle is best served for a fika
    o Fika – “Coffee and cake break” - the daily practice of sitting down
    with a coffee and something sweet.

    PRINSESSTÅRTA
     The cake was originally called grön tårta (green cake), but was given the name
    prinsesstårta or "princess cake" because the princesses were said to have been
    especially fond of the cake.
     It is a traditional Swedish layer cake or torte consisting of alternating layers of
    airy sponge cake, pastry cream, raspberry jam and a thick-domed layer of
    whipped cream. The cake is covered by a layer of marzipan, giving it a smooth
