But if you come for a visit, Chuck, I'll be happy to teach you to cook Swedish food, and say bork bork bork with the right accent!!

We have wonderful food, such as herring for example. I know you Americans love herring!

To get back on topic, how about some Pink Martini?

One more Swedish post, puleeze!? I like to make Swedish Meatballs. It's easy. You dump 5 lbs of frozen meatballs into a crockpot and pour over them a full jar of Heinz chili sauce mixed with a full jar of grape jelly! Cook for 4 hours on low! I have no idea why it's called Swedish meatballs...maybe because the meatballs are frozen??

I'm sorry, but that sounds disgusting!  ;D

And, as you may have already guessed, it's nothing like Swedish meatballs.

Here's a recipe for traditional Swedish meatballs (which I don't particularly like and have never made):
500 gr minced meat, mixed beef and pork
1 egg
2-3 dl cream, milk and/or water
1 small onion
0,5 dl raspings
2 cooked cold potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
salt, pepper, allspice (yuck)

And for the sauce:
1 tablespoon flour
2 dl cream or milk
1 stock cube
salt, pepper

I can't however guarantee that this is exactly how IKEA's meatballs are made!  ;D
