  • Trying to get into the Christmas spirit and being super curious about the Danish culture, I decided to do a little challenge.
    In this video I'm trying traditional Danish food that people have around Christmas. We'll be making mulled wine (or gløgg as the Danes call it) and æbleskiver, drinking Christmas beer and eating lots of Christmas candy (pssst, don't count calories). I'm also sharing some curious Danish Christmas traditions and showing you what Christmas Dinner looks like here in Denmark.

    Hey, guys! My footage with the Christmas cookies was corrupted and I couldn't show them in the video, but if you find yourself in Denmark during Christmas time, you MUST try them! The are called " *brunkager* " and oh, my Goodness, these are THE BEST cookies I've had! We may or may not have devoured a few boxes already 😅

    Don't boil glögg unless you like it alcohol free (ethanol boils at 78 degrees centigrade).

    Homemade aebleskiver is AMAZING. If I'm going to get off my lazy butt to make them, I usually create a whole bunch of filling + topping options to to make the whole family happy.. I highly recommend trying any of these combos: 1.) inside - lemon curd, outside powdered sugar. 2.) Inside - blueberry jam or compote, topped with ricotta cheese, lemon zest, and a lil squeeze of lemon juice. 3.) Inside - Nutella, outside - powdered sugar and sliced strawberries. 4.) Inside cinnamon stewed apples, outside - powdered sugar. 5.) Just plain ol' aebleskiver with a bit o' cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top. :)

      Wait, whaaaaat? You fill them too 😱 Now that sounds like something truly extraordinary 😍🤗
      Thank you so much for the idea - definitely trying this! Do you fill them after they're done or do you put some filling before you turn them?
      We bought an aebleskiver pan last year, but we still haven't taken it out of the box 😅 I guess it's time!

      @@IvaYDenmark yes indeed! Once you’ve filled in all the wells with batter, you can wait a couple seconds and place about a teaspoon or so of your favorite filling in each. You can always just put whatever you want on top of a plain one, but it’s extra special when you prepare it as a filling and it’s all gooey. Ahh Talking about them makes me want to make them... might have to do it Christmas morning! Thank you for the inspiration! 😄

      Yes, many people have duck too! It seems to be a staple in many holidays - we had it a few weeks ago as part of Mortensaften, so we decided to skip it and just focus on whatever we haven't tried and is available only at Christmas.
      I think the pork with the crispy outside is one of the main dishes and honey glazed ham is also quite popular 🤔

      @@claireliin ​ yeah, duck or goose is the main dish for Mortensaften. Legend has it that St. Martin hid in a geese pin to avoid being elected as bishop, but the geese made so much noise that he was soon discovered and elected. So, after that people started eating goose on this day, but nowadays it's mostly substituted for duck.
      We honestly didn't like it much last time (I think if we had managed to find a better restaurant or make it ourselves, it would have been different) and since we were ordering from the same place, we decided to skip it ;)
      Flæskesteg is a big thing, yeah! Danes love their pork 😅👌
      I've also seen people roast salmon for Christmas dinner too. There are so many variations 😅

      Interesting question. Iva Y Denmark, I was wondering, if was in Denmark during Christmas (or any other time), would some Danish people be serving turkey, and could I find turkey at the market or butcher? I'm from Canada. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to all of Denmark! ❤ Tak

      @@alexsdb9712 I think that most Danes eat pork and/or duck for Christmas, but I'm pretty sure you can find basically anything in the store 😉
      There's also some international stores around Copenhagen and we were even able to find some traditional Bulgarian dishes, so I don't think turkey would be a problem :)
      Merry Christmas to you, dear! Have an awesome 2021 🎉

      I think when they are served at Christmas markets it will be with strawberry or raspberry jam/marmelade and the powdered sugar/confectionery sugar.
      That is also how I have always had them served everywhere else except sometimes with ordinary sugar.
