Current Events > Happy International Hangover day.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just about the only thing the world can agree apon.

Et in Terra Pax

Hangovers don't even faze me anymore.

Maybe not...but there is a certain sense of lethargy after the whole holiday season.

Didn't have a hangover this morning because I threw up like 3 times in the middle of the night.

In Sweden it's the national pizza day, due to the hangovers.

Now I want to see an example of a Swedish Pizza.
~Please tell me it doesn't involve Swedish Meatballs.

Are Swedish Meatballs even a thing in Sweden?

We just call em kttbullar. Meat balls.

But its not what we have on pizza lol.

Americans here usually dont like how our pizzas look
This is my goto: Capriciosa. Has ham and mushrooms.

Interesting pronunciation on the kttbullar, but I can hear it in English.
I am not into Meatballs as it is.
But I will say, a white sauce seems super counterintuitive to me.
I grew up, in an Italian famely.

That first Pizza looks alright.
Though I would go with the pepperoni.
The Mushrooms look fantastic.

The second is kind of a pass for me.
I would try a slice, but I doubt I would ever order it.

That banana curry one looks and sounds disgusting

Um we usually have brown sauce, or gravy whatever its called with meatballs. With boiled potatoes or mashed potatoes and some lingonberry sauce and quick pickled cucmber. But I usually have it with macaronis and ketchup.

Our meatballs are usually smaller that for example italian and spiced much differently.

We also use them cold to make kttbullemacka, a meatball open faces sandwich with red beet salad thing

For Swedish meatballs, I think it is a white sauce or gravy.

..People really like Lingonberries up there huh?
They are nice. But I wouldn't use it in a sandwich.

Macaroni and Ketchup. Really? Ketchup?

I am not going to lie, and don't take this as an insult, but I do find Swedish food kinda vexing.
But it's because I was raised around a Mediterrane diet.

I do however appreciate your cooking skills, and your openness of teaching when you get a chance.

never ever heard of white sauce for meatballs here.

And the lingonberries were with the meatballs potatoes and sauce not the sandwich.

Here is a very Swedish dish I had recently: Isterband which is a smoked sausage made with lard, dill creamed potatoes and pickled red beets.

Well ya, for White sauce in this sense I mean Gravy.
Or w/e it is, I really don't know what's on a Swedish meatball...
That is just not something I am used to.

Oh, well it looks great, but what is the pinkish stuff?

That other pic you posted looks good. Is that a paper plate?

Also interesting plating technique. You sly dog.
