The simple dishes that have accompanied Swedish meals for generations<\/h2>\n

Traditional Swedish cooking has always made the most of what was close at hand. Potatoes, root vegetables, cabbage, peas and beans were inexpensive, filling and well suited to the northern climate, and generations of Swedish cooks found countless ways to turn them into something worth putting on the table.<\/p>\n

Here you will find the classic accompaniments of the Swedish kitchen: creamy stewed vegetables, potatoes prepared in familiar old-fashioned ways, beans, roots and other humble dishes that have long been served alongside meat, fish and sausages.<\/p>\n

They may be called side dishes, but on a traditional Swedish plate they are often just as important as whatever sits beside them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
