SWEDISH POTATO PANCAKES (RAGGMUNK)



Swedish Potato Pancakes (Raggmunk) image

I don't know if this is exactly how gramma made her potato pancakes, as I never got the actual recipe. But I remember grating onion for hers so this is a hybrid of my memory and a basic version from Scandinavia.com. I think a major component missing in the online recipe was baking powder. Also, this can be started the night before by grating the potatoes and then covering them with cold water and refrigerating overnight.

Time 26m

Yield 15-20 pancakes, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lbs potatoes (raw & firm)
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 1/2 cups milk (or less)
3 tablespoons onions, grated
2 eggs
sour cream (optional garnish)
chives (or green onions for optional garnish)
lingonberry jam (optional garnish)

Steps:

  • Peel, rinse and grate the raw potatoes into a bowl of very cold water. (If you're starting this the night before, cover bowl and refrigerate potatoes in the water til morning.).
  • Drain potato shreds in a wire mesh strainer or colander and using your hands, press as much moisture out as possible. Cover with a paper towel and set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and one cup of the milk to make a smooth batter.
  • Add the grated onion, eggs and remaining milk, if needed to make a slightly thin batter. Whisk until combined.
  • Stir the potato shreds into the batter.
  • Heat griddle or large frying pan to about 350°F and rub the griddle with a thin coat of canola oil (I use a paper towel to do this & you may need to reapply between each batch).
  • When oil is hot, pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the griddle and cook until golden on the bottom. Flip pancake over and cook until golden on that side.
  • Serve with sour cream & chives or lingonberry jam.

Time 1h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

¼ pound salt pork, cubed
1 small onion, coarsely chopped
1 ½ cups cold mashed potatoes
1 large egg
¾ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch ground nutmeg
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 gallon water, or as needed
2 (32 fluid ounce) containers beef broth

Steps:

  • Fry salt pork with onion in a skillet until the salt pork is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Drain fat and set salt pork and onion mixture aside.
  • Mix mashed potatoes, egg, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg together in a bowl; stir 1 cup flour into potato mixture. Sprinkle 1 cup flour onto a work surface and turn the dough out onto the flour. Knead the flour on the work surface into the dough.
  • Cut dough into 12 equal pieces and roll into balls, dusting your hands and sprinkling work surface with remaining 1/2 cup flour. Press your thumb into each dumpling to make an indentation, and fill with a small amount of salt pork-onion mixture. Pinch the dumplings closed and roll in flour.
  • Bring water to a boil in a large pot. If desired, replace half the water with beef broth. Drop dumplings into the boiling water and broth and reduce heat to low. Simmer until cooked through, about 25 minutes. Drain and transfer to a serving bowl.

SWEDISH POTATO SAUSAGE - POTATIS SKORV



Swedish Potato Sausage - Potatis Skorv image

To stuff the casings, you will need a meat grinder with a sausage horn attachment. If you don't have such a device, use the mixture to make fried patties by shaping 1/4 cup of filling into a 1/2 inch thick patty and frying in hot oil until golden brown on both sides. From the local paper.

Time 45m

Yield 20 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 lbs ground pork
5 lbs ground beef
10 lbs red potatoes (peeled, cubed and ground)
10 medium onions (peeled, quartered and ground)
8 1/2 tablespoons salt
7 1/2 teaspoons allspice
5 teaspoons sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons black pepper (or more)
2 1/2 teaspoons white pepper
2 1/2 cups milk
2 1/2 lbs casings

Steps:

  • To prepare casings: Let casings soak in cool water about five minutes to remove salt on outer surface (no longer, or they will become too tender to stuff) and flush salt from the inside by placing one end on faucet nozzle and turn on cold tap water (if you see holes or water leaking, cut and discard).
  • Remove casing from faucet and gently squeeze out water; cover rinsed casings and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Using the grinder attachment on mixer or a table grinder; grind meat, potatoes and onions together into a large roasting pan.
  • Using clean hands, mix the ingredients together with spices.
  • Add milk and mix again.
  • Load casings onto funnel nozzle then stuff ground mix into funnel to fill casings into 18-inch length sausage; tie ends and make links by twisting the sausage where you wish the links to be.
  • Four inches is a good size for a regular serving, smaller links may be made for appetizer servings.
  • Place the sausages in large saucepan or dutch oven in a single layer with a little water; cover and heat over high heat to a low simmer.
  • Reduce heat to maintain low simmer (sausages may burst if cooked at too high a heat) until the sausage is heated through, approximately 15 minutes.
  • Precook sausages before freezing.
