SELMA (Lagerlöf) is our national pride author and Nobel prize winner, who used to be in our 20 Kronor money note.
SEMLA is the pastry. :)
well, Astrid deserved many nobels, they ##"¤" her
Actually the semla dates back to the 1700s in sweden, but then it was served differently placed in a bowl of hot milk called hetvägg (hot wall :D). It's said that the swedish king Adolf Fredrik died from eating too many semlor back in 1772
According to the story he ate 14 (!) , before a large dinner of sourkraut, meat and turnips, lobster, caviar and champagne. (No wonder he died)
This should be some kind of "challenge" in a resturant where you sign a legal document that "The resturant accepts no liability in the event of hospitalization or death."
Only beaten by Ture Sventon and Bert Karlsson :)
Thats a proper way for a king to die.
No, the story that King Adolf Fredrik ate himself to death on rolls is only a fantasy written by imaginative writers...:-)
Mattias Ljungberg (the owner in the video) is taking about the current type of semla which is around 100 years old. The hetvägg semla from the 1700s wasn´t like the semla of today, there was no almond paste and the bun was really dry - so it had to be wettened by warm milk, hence the name hetvägg (hot wall).
Semla is one of the best pastries that ever existed! I miss it the rest of the year and during the Semla season I can't get enough of it!!
Nice job pushing the laughs back every time someone said Tosse.
Guys! You cant leave Sweden without trying a Tunnbrödrulle (Flatbread roll with sausages and mash and much more..) That is streetfood you dont find anywere else. 😋
Fyfan va äckligt mögmat 08 hittepå
de körde brunos korv!
@@jacobharris930
Tönt.
@@jacobharris930 Är långt ifrån ett 08 hittepå.
It's still vile!
"At least a hundred years".
Adolf Fredrik: Am I a joke to you?
Adde dog för vetenskapens skull.
14 Semlor är gränsen.
What a lovely owner - quality is clear to see. Glad you’re all safe and having fun times. Keep these different city vlogs coming, more variety = better content. Well done you all.
Really appreciate you
You ate it exactly how your'e supposed to, just dive into it like a champion!
Tösse was actually one of the first bakeries to break the classic semla mould when they launched a wrap semla, with acream and almond paste rolled in a soft, sweet and cardamom tasting wheat flat bread. Heresy, but very delicious heresy!
I saw one place that had replaced the whipped cream with chocolate mousse and that too was a bit heretical, yet delicious.
Several people from their staff has been winning prizes so I guess you picked a solid place.
Nice channel, subbed!
Pronounciation: the Ö is very similar to the EA in "earnest", and the E is like E in "end".
Funniest was when they asked him and he said Tösse which they completely ignored and instead gave themselves praise for saying Tosse. He said it less than 1 second ago and it just flew right over their heads.
I'm smiling ☺ ☺when he called Semla a Selma😂but it's a great video anyway👍
It's like an homage to Selma Lagerlöf and Semlan in one sentence 😂
Thank you for highlighting Swedish cuisine!
the Ö in Tösse is pronounced about like the u in "turn" or the ea in "learn"
A Semla is a lent bun, eaten at Shrove Tuesday/Mardi Gras.
It's the same holiday, mardi gras is also known as the fatty day and the day we eat semlor here in Sweden is known as Fettisdagen wich translates as the fatty day or the day of fat.
Back in the 60s,70s and early 80s we had lots of decent cakes in the UK. Then we got Supermarkets followed by Greegs. All the nice cakes disappeared with the independant and small manufacturers of cakes, The variety was then restricted by maintaining cost for profit. Can still see the Rum Babas in my head from when i was a kid at Taylors cake shop. Closest ive seen since was in Harrods food hall.
Everything was better back in the day 👍
Yea your right. People are obsessed with Greggs but we’ve forgotten all our old bakeries
Semla has been around a little bit longer than a 100 years. Swedish king Adolf Fredrik loved Semla, so much that he had a stroke after eating too much "Semlor" year 1771. Well there are probably other reasons for the stroke but that is the story at least.
Hetvägg, specifically. Semla served in warm milk. He supposedly ate a large amount of them, as it was his favorite, following a meal of meat and turnips, sauerkraut, lobster, kaviar, kippers and champagne.
After the king's death, count Johan Gabriel Oxenstierna wrote that hetvägg should be banned for regicide.
I guess it depends on which version we are talking about, i guess the modern semla isnt much older then a hundred years?
the modern version isn't old but traditional ones are very old.
1547, king Wasa love the too.
@johanbergman2343, det var Hetvägg han åt 😉
The ultra traditional way to eat semla is called hetvägg. The semla is served in a deep dish plate of warm full fat milk. To die for, almost literally.
It should be noted though that this a regional thing, more common in the northern parts of Sweden.
That being said as a kid, growing up in the town of Mora, I often ate semla as a hetvägg (translates to "hot wall"), but later on I didn't like it as much, since the hot milk just turns the whole pastry into a soggy mess, more or less... Anyway, the hetvägg is a popular tradition, and a lot of people swear by it :)
@@t-man78 Making a hetvägg with a modern semla bun is like asking for a disaster, the traditional bun has a crispy shell that stays sturdy after being boiled in milk :)
I love eating my semla with warm milk. I really like the hot mess of soaked bun, cream and almond paste. It’s just so good. ❤
Funny, "So it's pronounced 'Tosse'?", "It's Tösse", "So 'Tosse'", "Yeah"
I love how he eats it like a happy pitbull xD
The swedish Semla is about 500 years old.
5:40 You do realize that Mardi Gras, which you may have heard of, literally translates to Fat Tuesday, so we’re not the only ones calling it that? 😁
It's SEMLA you barbarianbs, not selma!
Jokes aside, semlor are delish. I think the beauty lies in how simple it is really. It's just a cardamom bun with almond paste and cream. The bun and cream just helps to mellow out and balance the almond paste for a tasty treat. I guess some people might think it's rather plain, but i think the combination of textures and falvors come together really nicely.
I always eat my Semla with hot milk.... it was when i moved to south of Sweden i noticed that everyone ate them without...
Hetvägg 😉
@@petrakihlstrom8163 We only said eat "semla" when i was a kid..... i didn´t know any other way to eat it....
@@entropyawylli24 well it's called "Hot wall" because you put the semla in a deep dish and pour warm milk around the semla. 😉
@@petrakihlstrom8163 Det kanske det gör i andra delar av Sverige än där jag kommer ifrån....Vi kallade det bara "Semla" och jag visste inget annat sätt att äta den, eller kalla det. NU vet jag att man kallar det hetvägg i andra delar av Sverige....men det var inte poängen med det jag skrev. Precis som med köttbullar där det finns det lika många recept som det finns mammor i Sverige... så finns det olika sätt att äta semlor och inte alla kallar det "hetvägg".
@@petrakihlstrom8163 Det var inte poängen med det jag skrev. Jag frågade aldrig efter vad "äta semla med varm mjölk" kallas. Jag VET att andra delar av landet kallar det hetvägg.
There is a fun chart over what is a semla.
Search for Semla alignment chart and you will find it.
Are you a Purist, Neutral or Rebel regarding shape/form and ingredient?
I am a ingredient purist, shape neutral.
A quite common Semla substitute the almond paste with vanilla cream.
You can actually put it in warm milk as well, as in a shallow bath of warm milk on a plate.
Which is a more traditional way of eating them.
I personally i prefer to eat them that way, you should try it if you get the chance!
Oooh, I do love a "hetvägg"... 😊
10:31 "A tosser from Tösse" sounds like the start of a limerick
It's Shrove Tuesday in English btw 😅
Yeah it’s befor lent!
"Tosser", the pejorative, vulgar, english slang kind of exists in swedish in the form "tossig" but its seldom used and not as harsh either, meaning stupid or slightly mental.
You can survive on the satisfactory feeling eqting a semla, all the way until Easter, when it’s time for the next bit of culinary delight: the little Sillbit with a couple of Nubbe (pickles herring with a some dram).
Bastard Burgers currently has a Donut Burger as a monthly Burger. Instead of the Bread they use sugar coated Donut.
Assembled by Burger Dudes.
1st Created in 2018
Would be super fun to see you guys make a video about it.
Bastard Burgers is a Burger chain with 40 resturants in Sweden.
Pf, we got one of those last year. Ate there once. It's all basically just overpriced mush. You'd get better from the frozen isle at the supermarket. Their milkshakes are also atrocious cheap bullshit.
The guy there... "Been around for 100 years". We have depictions in Scandinavia dating back to the 11th century of this pastry. Modest 😅
He did say 'at least' 😅
Semla, the bane of all beards and mustaches. At the end of fika you kan easily spot if there was semlor involved as there is always the lad who forgot to wipe and looks as if he was the guest of honor at the snowman bukkake party.
While watching you guys eating, I feel I wanna have one too! 😂👍 But I stick to one, max 2 each year, therefore I never get tired of them, really love it
And the cheap est ones you can buy at Willys Superstore/Market ,packed in plastic instead of paper(kartong in Swedish) is 2 för 33 SEK. Normal price is 2 for 50-55 SEK. But sometimes the cream is frozen so you have to wait before you can eat it,the ones packed in plastic.
It is actually Fastlagsbulle !
They're from 1700's and is the tastiest and best pastry in the world. If the bun is chewy and the whipped cream is real
You also have to try Prinsesstårta och Wienerbröd
Try the hot wall, that is warm milk in a deep bowl and the selma. That is very nicy....
Trying not to laugh when he pronounced Tosse 😂😂
😂😂
Kinda enjoyed the ”Selma” too 😂
Tou should try it with hot milk and cinemon (hetvägg)
'White nose' thats right way to a eat semla.
I never use spoon 🇸🇪
Also called a "Hot wall" when you have it soaked up with some warm milk on a plate.. Also famous from when the swedish king Adolf Fredrik died of it in 1771 (along with over 50 other dishes that day)..! 😄
Also called fastlagsbulle in the part of the country that counts 😂 without soaking
I love semlor. Too bad the season for Semlan is so short.
Move to Jönköping! Here they start selling them in November. ❤
Heaven on earth.. Semla!
I just smile thru the whole video!
Well, you're a right tosser for saying Selma instead of Semla, haha!
like the traditional semla but actually after tasting a new version im all for that...made with wienerbröd and saffron in the whiped cream
whoever gets to try these are very lucky
Now he knows why you should use the lid to scrape up some whip cream 😂. It's both the worst and the best season for semlor. Good to get some pudge during winter to stay warm, but it's also beard season for the same reason and that whip cream gets everywhere 😂😂
Ps. It's not actually called Tosse. I think he tried to say the name in English or something. The letter Ö is pronounced as the first sound in earl, and you're saying that quite often don't you, Earl Grey tossers 😉.
I love a good tasty semla, but I can't stand the paste in it, when made from apples, but if different ones, I love it
Fat Tuesday is the Tuesday before Sunday lent and we eat these like we are actually not going to eat for 40 days. This year I had 12 Semla on Fat Tuesday :)
It's notoriously hard to eat a semla with a beard. I don't know who made it so hard to eat but it's kind of part of the experience.
It is not hard, you just need to be ready for a thorough cleanup after. 😁
Cool to see this, but its not a Selma (thats like 20:- or a writer, same person) its a Semla, the M before the L :D
Home made semlor, next level. But these look good too!
SEM-LA
Some people may mistakenly say "fettis-dagen", which is like saying "fatso day".
Fat Tuesday equals Mardi Gras. Then the fasting until Asksöndagen begins.
No wait. Askonsdagen (ash Wednesday) is the day after, where we enter lent (fastan).
Tösses is great.
Don't forget a few grains of salt in the hot milk when you eat hot wall! SEMLA! not SÄLMA..😉
A Swedish king actually died from over eating semla with hot milk. So take it easy!
I love semla. Eat way to manny when it's in season.
Excellent. To eat Semla, or fastlagsbulle the propper way. First take the "lid" of the semla, and dip it into the cream. Then eat it. You should be levt with the lower part filled with cream and other sweet stuff almond paste etc. Now take a bite, and remember to dipp your nose into the cream, filling both nostrils with cream. Also if you are a man with a beard or mustache, it should be full of cream to, this is how its meant to be eaten, not like a stuck-up with a spoon. This way you will walk around all day smelling only sour cream. If you don't, you did not eat it correcly, repeate the process with another semla.
Jokes aside, i am Swedish, and i love semla, eller fastlagsbulle som det också är känt som.
He kept his face straight 😂
You don't have Ö but if say "UH" as you might use as a sound while thinking on an answer to someone, it will be quite close. Tösse = T-[UH]-SSe
Seconds in and already hearing tosser and Selma 😂
semla is dangerous🥰😅good
i can say that all semla is not equal to eachouter.. some are made with love and some are made with crap
🤷🏻♂️ Words fail me....👊👊👊💦
Brilliant lads on every level! Decent bloke and food BTW 👏
🤣👌
Big Guy knows how to eat a semla 💪
No The bakery is called Tösse not Tosse. Tööösse
And then they go to Copenhagen and try pastries...
lmao for the confusion of the female name "Selma" and the "Semla" which is the bun!!
Its not Selma , its Semla dude!!!
is selma or semla as written in the description
Semla!
It's Semla, they just pronounced it wrong.
The pastry is called Semla but Selma is a female name here in Sweden.
I know it's nice having your mates on there, personally I prefer the solo videos. You get more 'Matt' for your money 💰😜👊
The letter ö doesn't sound anything like the letter o without the dots. JUST SO PEOPLE KNOW... The sound is maybe more like a "uh". Tuh-se.
Very good try on Swedish, the only main mistake was the letters themselves. It SEM-LA not SELMA.
when are you going to start reviewing kebabs again
I like semla with, het vägg. In milk 😂😂🤗From 🇸🇪
Imagine going to tosser and only getting a cake .
💕The best semla in Stockholm city 💕 😋😋😋
5:42 Fat Tuesday = Mardi Gras, same literal meaning, from the same Christian tradition.
Tösse - Tuesse, Semla not Selma 😅
It always gets messy when eating these 😂
Not Selma Semla
Haha, yeah when people started experimenting with the recipe a lot of people cried heresy :)
Thats how you get away with saying tosser on youtube 😅
Keps saying Selma 😂😂. It's SEMLA.
Three brother’s keebab place best in the country
If you liked the ordinary semla, try some other semlas, like, the Wienersemla (which is the crispy version of the classic semla), Saffranssemla, Chocolate semla... You will find your favorite!! 💖🤗💖
I'm Swedish and I love the semla.
But it should ofcourse be the original. Not all of the new versions.
Anyway you eat them is good but the best is to make hetvägg.
This means that you take a small bowl with warm milk and put your semla in it.
You then eat it with a spoon.
The but will ofcourse be soaked by the milk but it is in my view the absolutely verry best way to eat semla.
Nahhh all that milk just detracts from the semla. If the bread is good, there's really no need to turn it to mulch.
@@EterPuralis
Well, we are all different
Cream on the nose and beard 😊 that is how you should look after a good semla!
Mums mums !!!😊
During the seson I ett one a dag, yuammi
You pronounce it "SEMM-LA" Not Selma.. And spelled Semla 👍
The camera man filmed you wiping the bun on your nose - for you to pretend it was when you were eating it? How weird.
Did you say Selma?
big up the lyle and scott crew....... 😂
