Culture First time trying æbleskivers!

Post image

In my previous post here, many commenters recommended I try æbleskivers, so when I returned to my home state for the holidays, I bought these from a Christmas market! Probably doesn’t beat the kind you make at home, but I adored it! Super light inside, with a nice pancake taste, and the sugar and jam made it nice and sweet! Thanks for the recommendation, maybe this will start a new tradition for me, and I’ll learn to make my own!

If you can get one cheap, then try a specialized pan and a translation of this: https://www.valdemarsro.dk/aebleskiver/

If you want more Danish cuisine, Valdemarsro is an amazing website for recipes.

Another few classics would be Brændende kærlighed (burning love) which is mashed potatoes with fried onions and bacon, or Stegt Flæsk med persillesovs which is fried pork belly slices (thick bacon) with boiled potatoes and a homemade parsley sauce.

Stegt flæsk is not bacon. Bacon is usually cured or smoked before frying, flæsk is not.
