One day I was invited for dinner at a Swedish friend and she offered me a delicious soup (recipe at the end of the post!) - in that moment I was conquered by the Swedish cusine and later on tried also different dishes:

The below is a very short list of the kinds of food you would enconter in Sweden:

meatballs

Believe this is the most famous dish in Sweden. My friend told me no one makes better meatballs than her mother who lives in Gothenburg ;-) For the ones that know the brand IKEA (store of furnishing and appliances) would recognize this dish from their store restaurant.

swedish crackers

Staple food very common in the nordic countries - goes nicely with butter, cheese and/or fruit jam

Ginger snaps

In Swedish "pepparkakor" delicious biscuits with ginger pepper and cinnamon - tastes like Christmas!
