As a Pole I agree.... pickled herring is life!
As a Swede i agree. Sheers Dear neighbour.🍺🍺👍🏻
The oldest pickled herring is spiced herring. We have been eating it since at least the middle of the 18th century.
The herring has a long and important history in our country. In periods it was abundant and then it was important to catch as much as possible and save for the future. This was done by salting, drying or smoking the fish. - The basis of Swedish food culture is grains and fish. We eat beef and pork too.
The reason why we eat herring as an introduction to the Christmas table is connected to what is called the snaps table. It was a standing appetizer that was common already in the middle of the 17th century. It included butter, bread and cheese, some salty fish such as herring or salmon and then some salted meat. To this they drank three kinds of snaps/vodka. This costume has survived on the smorgasbord and has become the introduction there. We repeat it at Easter, Midsummer and Christmas. So it is something we have done for well over 400 years.
Best part of this video is that finnish song Säkkijärven polkka in the backround.
Quite a lot of the older generation especially in Northern England eat pickled herrings, we call it either Roll mop Herring or Soused Herring
Why are most Swedish people just insanely attractive? Like what the hell.
Kind of interesting that you chose to play the Finnish Säkkijärven polkka the baking part though.
Free music and close enough for the yanks .
pickled herring with new potatoes and sour cream, preferably mustard herring ❤
OMG I love you Andrew!
bring bizarre foods again!!
I would love to go to Sweden 🇸🇪 such a beautiful place!
Loved the finnish polkka on the background while chef was rolling the cinnamon rolls.
Everything looks delicious!
This is some how like the "ceviche" that I made, instead of vinager, lemon
I definetly recommend to try also ABBA pickled herring. Not the band, but it’s a company.
I wouldn't. Their herring is awful. Go for Klädesholmen instead. Much higher quality. Abba's mustard hering should be considered a war crime.
Holy smoly, great episode! Love it!
/aaofsweden
Its so good! Cravin some now haha
We also drink tea twice a day but I drink five times a day and now I'm diabetic so I use sugar free sweetener, lol.
The fish is good with potatoe sour cream onion and tomatoes
It;'s not just Sweden. In Germany we have Maatjes which are just raw herring. Which we eat with onions.
That explains the origin of the sill matjessill, often canned spiced herring but not salted. Always thought it was a weird name but it explains it then.
The same in Norway and Denmark. 🌍🌏
The same in Norway and Denmark.
...and Finland.
Yeah, we use the same ingredients
Kanelbulle shoudlnt have almond paste inside :(
A good description of some of the very much loved Swedish seafood, but I must add that the pronunciation of the Swedish names is really bad! 😆
Im swedish and I never heard anybody use the word smorgosboard (smörgåsbord). Its like a thing americans says about swedes but i I think if you ask a swede what that is they cant answer it
It might not be that common but it is sometimes used when referring to a Buffet.
Dried fish is better.
Dried salt cod, yum yum!
fishy - fishy :)
Herring, ewwww....
Grow up
No black poeple in sweden?😮
Does it surprise you that mainly white countries exist just as mainly black ones?
No Inuits in Botswana?😮
Of course there are black people in Sweden, Sweden like most countries has immigrant communities and many have been there long enough for their kids and even grandkids to have been born and raised in Sweden. Though I don't know why any of this is relevant to a 10 minute long food travel video about pickled fish lol
