One gre..."Good food from Sweden by Norberg, Inga." One great thing about the Calgary library is that they'll ship the books you want to your branch - I use it all the time. Just log in, find the books you want (I searched for Cookery, Swedish) and request a hold. They even call when the book arrives at your branch of choice.<BR/><BR/>Other than that? Next time you're at Ikea they have a book that they're selling that you can look though for ideas.

I was first introduced to these in Sweden many decades ago, served over linguini (sp?) noodles - but not just any noodle, they were a homemade spinach noodle. I have seen both garlic and spinach noodles in specialty shops - either would be good.<BR/><BR/>At Christmas we had smoked salmon (lox) with toasted and buttered rye bread, asparagus, a tart potatoe salad (made with vinegar?) and some greens (sorrel?). I think we started with what may have been a cream of sorrel and spicy sausage soup. There was also other items I did not quite enjoy - ludefisk (sp?) being among the more smelly, mashed turnip, etc.<BR/><BR/>Please forgive my spelling, no checker on this comment processor!KJPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09671764204117510669noreply@blogger.com
