It's one of those enduring family traditions around Christmas - as essential, if not more, to me, than even the Christmas tree. And it's very, very easy to make.

Christmas Update part 2 - Saffron Pancake
Someone once said that to make an apple-pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe. If there was ever any dessert worth reinventing the universe for, saffron pancake would be it.

Christmas Update part 1 - Knäck and Chesspiece Cookies
(This was going to be one of those big all-in-one updates, except I disagreed with the read-more-break function, and now I'm splitting it up into three instead.)
Christmas! A time of snow (except we haven't got any), good cheer, presents and good old family traditions! ... And food. Because for those of us who aren't religious, Christmas is mostly about food.
I've said that I'm going to use this blog to spread a few Swedish recipes around - and now I'm putting those words into action, by introducing you to some of my Christmas-y baking traditions.
First up - knäck and Chessboard Cookies!
Knäck
Because you weren't using those teeth anyway.

Swiss Rolls
Here is the first entry in my kitchenside adventures! ... And already a day late, so we're off to a great start, aren't we?
Sunday the 27th was Advent Sunday, and the first candle was lit, it was time for a family "fika" (a concept so utterly Swedish, it has its own Wikipedia-entry, to explain it to you crazy foreginers) - and not content with eating only store-bought ginger biscuits with my glögg, I decided to go ahead and bake Swiss Rolls.
Because why take the easy way out? It's not like there's a million things that could go wrong.
Right?
