Slow start

How wonderful with a slow start with a breakfast. Croissants from the local bakery, listening to the radio & some books.

Semlor

Fat Tuesday is one of our most celebrated food days & rolls ( semlor) are eaten in almost every home in Sweden. Fat Day itself is February 13 this year & throughout the season we manage to eat around 50 million rolls ( semlor) in the country. We have been eating these buns on Constitution Day since the Middle Ages & it’s said that King Adolf Fredrik died because he greedily stuffed 14 semlor in 1771.

The celebration of Fatty Day comes from the Christian holiday established when fasting for 40 days before Easter in order to eat properly. During Lent, one was supposed to live spartanly, not eat meat or feast in any other way, so it was about partying properly on Fattiday.

Breakfast

Early (long) walk through different neighbourhoods & a break on the way for breakfast & a cup of coffee. One of life’s little joys.

Perfectly poached eggs, garlic infused yogurt, hot spiced chili olive oil & fresh dill. Perfect with crusty sourdough or soft pita. And as breakfast or brunch.

Morning

Lately, our mornings have started with fried eggs. We’re trying to experiment with different flavours & side dishes. And picking up tips & inspiration from various food accounts – like this one ⬇️ flavourful Za’atar eggs served up with lemony yogurt & chili oil.
