Swedish cuisine, or 'husmanskost' (home-cooked food), is based on simple, high-quality ingredients, often sourced from its forests, lakes and coasts. Hearty dishes based on fish, meat, potatoes and dairy products define traditional cuisine. However, in recent years a new Nordic cuisine has flourished that reinterprets these traditions with a focus on local, sustainable and innovation.
The most internationally famous Swedish dish. These meatballs are traditionally served with a creamy meat sauce (gräddsås), mashed potatoes, lingonberry jam and pickles. It is the quintessence of Swedish comfort food.
Herring is a centerpiece of any Swedish celebration (Midsommar, Christmas, Easter). It is presented marinated in a variety of sauces, from the classic one with onion and dill to more creative ones with mustard or garlic. It is usually eaten with boiled potatoes, sour cream and chives.
Raw salmon cured for days in a mixture of salt, sugar and dill. It is cut into thin slices and is commonly served with a mustard and dill sauce ('hovmästarsås') on rye bread. It is a smörgåsbord classic.
Traditionally, this is the menu every Thursday in Sweden. A bowl of hearty yellow pea soup with mustard is served first, followed by thin pancakes (pannkakor) with jam and cream.
A festive and spectacular dish that looks like a sweet cake but is salty. It consists of layers of sliced bread interspersed with creamy fillings based on mayonnaise, shrimp, salmon, ham and egg. It is profusely decorated on the outside.
More than a dish, it is a social event that takes place in August. Swedes gather to eat huge quantities of crayfish boiled in dill, wearing paper hats and singing drinking songs ('snapsvisor').

Swedes are among the largest coffee consumers in the world. Filter coffee is an essential part of 'Fika' and social life.
A distillate based on potato or grain, flavored with herbs such as cumin, anise or fennel. It is the traditional drink to accompany herring and to toast at celebrations, singing the 'snapsvisor'.
A dark and foamy soft drink, flavored with hops and malt, which is consumed almost exclusively at Christmas. During the holidays, its sales exceed those of any other soft drink. At Easter the same drink is sold under the name 'Påskmust'.
Swedish cider, both apple and pear ('päroncider'), is very popular, especially in summer. It is usually sweeter and more refreshing than other European ciders.
The sweet par excellence of 'Fika'. A yeast dough bun, often with a hint of cardamom, filled with butter, sugar and cinnamon, and topped with pearl sugar.
An iconic Swedish cake composed of layers of sponge cake, raspberry jam, pastry cream and a thick dome of whipped cream, all covered by a thin layer of green marzipan and decorated with a pink marzipan rose.
A traditional Lenten bun. It is a yeast bun with cardamom, from which the top is cut, emptied and filled with almond paste and whipped cream. Sprinkle with icing sugar.
A dense and sticky chocolate cake, crunchy on the outside and almost runny on the inside. It's easy to make and much loved throughout Sweden. It is usually served with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
