    Glögg = Glödgat Vin = Mulled Vine = Glüwine. My wife, heart bless her, has an accent where the words “Glögg” and “Gröt” are indistinguishable. “It’s almost Christmas, could you pick up some G***” ”Glögg?” ”Yes!” ”Or did you mean gröt?” “Yes!”. So Í buy both.

    Im surpiced that you didnt get any taste out of the Julmust, to me its one of the sodas with the most taste and its my favourite, i was more expecting you to just not like the taste since it is a special Swedish soda that may possibly require getting used to for those that havent grown up with it like me. The Apotekarnes brand is in my long experience the best tasting one of the ordinary Julmust versions and seems to be the most common one as well luckily, there are some expensive ones though and i havent tasted them myself. Julmust was originally created as an alcohol free replacement for beer over 100 years ago.

      Americans are grown up with a lot sweeter food then us and being used to sugar dampens the ability to taste other things. So to Americans much of our food might not taste much since there tate buds can have a hard time determening suble tastes and it is also less sweet.

    Lussebullarna looks like the cheapest ones, pale, with barely any saffron. Such ones usually don't taste of much at all. The need lots of saffron and butter in the dough, then they are superb. It's always a good idea to buy proper made ones, preferably at a bakery (konditori). Never buy bulk at a supermarket, usually crap.
    I like Apotekarnes julmust and drinks it a lot, but the best ones to me are Spendrups in glass bottle, stored 6 months in oak barrels, rum barrels or brandy barrels. Sometimes the even have calvados barrel ones.

    Apotekarnes is one of the most (if not the most) popular brands of julmust, but there are many more. And not every Swede prefer that one. So it would be fun to see you do a taste test with a few different brands. Having chilled them before, of course!
    Side note: In New York I found a beer called 2XMAS, from Southern Tier Brewing Company. It was described as "inspired by the swedish glogg", and it was great. Great ale that really tasted like glögg. I've only ever found it in NYC, though, and it's sad that we can't have it as a staple of the Swedish christmas.

    You should try Skumtomtar. From the Cloetta brand, found in the candy section for Christmas only. You can buy a normal candy bag of them and in some places you can get the big plastic box of the too. Slightly bigger than your pepparkaksburk.
    And a few more people mentioned knäck and brända mandlar. Really hard to buy them, best to make them yourself.
    Near Christmas you can often find someone that makes brända mandlar and sells them in small paper cones. Those are usually really good quality. Every Swedish Christmas market has someone making and selling them.

    Lussebullar is made with Saffron and a more traditional bun recepie. There are very many different versions of it. I tend to make them slightly more stronger in taste but it also comes with the dryish consistency then. Hot coffee and lussekatter and pepparkakor is the "fika" of choice in my opinion for the season. Knäck is also one to add for you.

  • @hannahthufvesson
    @hannahthufvesson Před 2 lety +2

    Annas pepparkakor (or homemade ones) & homemade Lussebullar are the way to go! ☺️ Glögg is usually served in very tiny cups since it's so very sweet and flavourful, and the almonds (without skin) and raisins are really nice in it, you scoop them up with a little spoon and eat them.
    Try having julmust at the same time as you're eating Christmas Ham and mustard, and there are plenty of brands to try in smaller glass bottles. ☺️

    Lussebullar, make your own.
    I will not give the whole recipe, but here are some tips:
    First day you marinate the saffron (3x what the recipe says) in dark rum.
    Then you make the pre-dough.
    Put that in the fridge over night.
    Put all other ingredients on the kitchen bench so they’re at room temperature the next day.
    Second day:
    Heat some glögg.
    Marinate the raisins in the glögg, this will ensure that they don’t get dry when baking in the oven.
    Mix the dough with the rest of the ingredients, let it rest.
    Shape the buns and garnish with raisins.
    Rest for at least an hour.
    Bake at 220 Celsius for 6-8 minutes
    The buns you don’t eat immediately, put them in bags and freeze them asap.

    The raisins and the almond are useful when the glögg is too warm! Just pick a few up from the cup with a tea spoon, and enjoy the glögg taste of them. Ideally, the almonds should have their skin removed (it's easy to do if you boil them for a minute or two) before you put them in the glögg. And as everyone else said, starkvinsglögg from Systembolaget is the real deal. Blossa is the default brand, but nowadays there are a ton of brands that try to be unique in various ways.

      @@KimberlySorce Kimberly, did you buy the lussebulle/lussekatt from a supermarket or a bakery? You might have gotten a "vetekatt" instead of a "lussebulle", and vetekatt don't have saffron in it and tastes, as you pointed out, of nothing. Also generally the lussekatter found in supermarkets are pre-baked and they have very little saffron taste compared to lussekatter bought from a bakery or homemade. I would recommend you buy a lussekatt/lussebulle from a bakery next time to get the full experience. Also warm it up a little in a microwave or oven before eating it, this brings out the saffron flavor even more.

    A more common name for saffron buns is "lussekatt" - virtually meaning "Lucia cat". Strange that none of the comments mentions this, since it's far more common than "lussebullar"

    Good reaction video on Swedish Christmas sweets and pastries. When it comes to mulled wine, there are many different types of flavors, I think. Although I drink the traditional mulled wine Blossa Julglögg or Vinglögg. There are different brands and also from non-alcoholic to alcoholic from 2% to maybe 22% of alcoholic content.. The one I drink Blossa Vinglögg has a 10% alcohol content.

    That brand of gingerbread cookies are really low budget, but have not the worst reviews. Other brands, that usually cost more usually tastes even more "gingerbready". The cheap ones have to tendency to just taste very mild to almost nothing.

    The word "Lussebulle" come from latin "Luci" for light, like in Lucia (Light carrier) and Lucifer (Light-Bringer), and it is combined the word "Bulle" that sound a bit like "Bull", so say 'Luci-bull-eh' :-D

    Some people compare julmust to root beer. Also, a proper made lussebulle (or lussekatt) should have a distinct smell and taste of saffron but since it's the most expensive spice in the world some store bought buns contains very little saffron or sometimes none at all.

    Don't know if anyone told you in the comments yet and also i'm kind of late writing this but whatever. I just wanted to say that there are actually different brands of Julmust which are swedish. One of them is even my favorite which is Zeunerts Julmust which is made in Sollefteå (within Norrland, aka north Sweden) (currently owned by Kopparberg), if there's 1 julmust brand that actually tastes like true traditional julmust then it's 100% Zeunerts Julmust.

    I dont know why you didnt taste anything, Julmust tastes great, it even outsells coca-cola in christmastime, lussebulle you should bake your own, those ones in stores are crap, they are baked on fake saffron and you get like 2 raisins on them and they are often very dry, baking them yourself with real saffron and put some raisins inside the dough makes them so much more delicious. Pepparkakor is often eaten when you have glögg, but alot of people have them with milk to, and its very popular to buy like bluemold cheese on tube called ädelost and put a little on or some just put a little butter on them. In stores they even often around christmas put the ädelost-tubes where they have pepparkakor because alot of people eat them that way.

  • @hakannorlings2439
    @hakannorlings2439 Před 2 lety +1

    When we have glögg we also put almonds and raisins in the cup. And pepparkakor you shouldn't just buy what ever cookies. Buy Annas or Nyåkers, they are whith out a doubt the best. It's a huge difference in taste etc.

    I think you're right on! That brand of julmust is rather bland, you should try Zeunerts! It has a lot more taste and is a more adult tasting, like a deep flavor.
    And lussebullar is also kinda bland, it's just sweet a bit dry bread with saffron. It's highly overappreciated!
    Just because something is traditional doesn't make it good! ^^

    Lutfisk. Wery mild taste, with kryddpeppar and white sås + boild potatos. Old dish.
    The temptation of Jansson. Ansjovis (small fish in can, buy the ABBA Grebbestad kind for the first try), raw potatos in sticks and 40% fresh grädde. Very easy to make. In Swedish its "Janssons frestelse".
    Kung Oscars Pepparkaka is the best. U had Eldorado, naa, its to thick, cheap, but still OK i guess.
    The Lussekatt was not good. It should be more raisins and a very yellow color. Its eaten on december 13, Luciaday.
    Real Glögg is more alcohol, but the one u got is probably OK, raisins and almond in the glögg.

    not water, air and bread.
    Julmust ( Chistmas must ) must taste
    like cold Coca-Cola not warm
    black wather.
    Peppar kakor must taste Christmas spices.
    Like Ingefära Kanel Kardemumma
    and Kryddnejlika. And same spices
    are in that warm Glögg, hot and gott.
    This Cristmas spices and Saffron are good to Happy Christmas God Jul.
    In this time in December its a lot of stress
    So this spices are some healthy thing.

    Lussebullar is really is the most popular of your tray out products. But both Lussebullar and pepparkakor should be home baked or baked in a fancy fikaställe. Especially Lussebullar have to be bake with enough love, for it’s nessesery to work a bit for get all the flavor out of the very expensive saffran, that is in Lussebullar.
    Of course people like different things in Sweden to, but I tried to speak from the mayor opinion.

    Julmust is a mix of cola with beer. Regarding lussebulle (lussekatt), u can not buy a real one in the shops you have to either bake yourself or go to a cafe where they bake it. The reason being they left out the very expensive key ingredient saffron! And it makes a very big difference. To sell it without saffron and call it lussebulle is to me a rip off but atleast you get the yellow color from saffron lol. As for glögg there is not much rules what is glögg anymore i think it is too much experimentation, I go with the brand and most popular brand called blossa they make glögg taste like it should very year, also nice to put some raisins and almonds into the glögg too!. Glögg is something you want to warm up when you come home from the cold day. As for pepparkakor the amount of taste can vary a lot,one good indication is too look if it is baked with butter,most have some kind of vegetable oil. But in general most are eatable and is usually hard to stop to eat when you have started 😋 welcome back to Sweden
