Swedish Kroppkakor image

Kroppkakor is eaten all over Sweden and is really old-fashioned cooking. The recipe is varying in different parts of Sweden. It is made with only raw potatoes or raw and boiled or just boiled as in this recipe. The allspice is not something that everybody likes, for me it's a must though. If there are any leftovers I love to slice them in halves the next day and fry them in butter--mmm!! A friend of mine from the north of Sweden does just that but he makes a sauce by pouring milk into the frying pan and boiling it with the halved kroppkakor, he does not want any allspice in his and makes them with both raw and cooked potatoes. This is one of the few dishes that I drink milk with. Lingonsylt is a must all over Sweden; I believe it is called cowberry or red whortleberry. I hope you enjoy!!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

These were a bit too heavy for my taste. I think I would use a lighter type of dough next time.

I had some trouble getting the dumplings to stay together. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices to the filling next time.

I've made kroppkakor before, but this recipe is by far the best. The dumplings were so light and fluffy, and the filling was perfectly seasoned. I will definitely be using this recipe again.
