U 4 got we gett absolute hammered and nubbe
Pelle svanslös or mysteriet på greveholm (the old one) are classics
Sunes jul is the best one you should really watch it. It’s really funny
My experienced Christmas in Sweden was Amazing.something will be cherish forever. 🎄⛄
What i most look forward to for christmas is Julskinka, its so fucking good, last christmas i bought a tone so that i hade it for breakfest all up until mars.
To note is that you have to have it with mustard (What ever flouts your boat) but you have to have julbröd (vörtbröd) with raisins in it to truly make it great.
Buy a tone of it because they only sell it in christmas so freez it and heat up when needed.
Christmass in Sweden is called Jul. Pagan heaven. No f*cking Jesus or other sh*t. Food, family and feasting. The three F's. Trolltider is the most viewable Julkalender from my childhood. The best Julfika is lussekatt, pepparkaka, glögg with russin and nötter. You didn't mention the tradition of setting out gröt with smör to the Nisse och the Julkärvar. You should also have mentioned that the word Julklapp comes from a tradition of knocking on someones house and then opening the door and throwing the gift in. The Jultomte is kind of new also. When I was a child it was the Julbock who came with the Julklappar.
Advent Calendar is a European Christmas tradition, not just a Sweden tration.
I am a Buddhist and don't "celebrate" Christmas but I do usually spend time with my family on Christmas day. Luckily my two older nieces and my brother-in-law are all Vegans too so there is always plenty of Vegan food for the three of us! I wonder how that would go at a Swedish Christmas meal for us who are Vegan?
Another tradition here is the box of chocolates. Everyone and their uncles have one on the living room table during Christmas
My favorite is "Selmas Saga"
Mysteriet på Greveholm!
1993 kalender Tomtemaskinen och 1996 kalender Mysteriet på greveholm
Sunes jul is a must. Trolltider, Ture Sventon, Greveholm is also klassiks.
I loved my first taste of a Swedish Christmas dinner. The beetroot salad was excellent but so were the meatballs and potato dish. Just scrummy. The beetroot went really well with our Boxing Day bubble & squeak – combining both Christmas traditions 🎄🎄🎄
With the ham you can also have a jam made of apples, in Swedish äppelmos. Realy tasty but don't take the mustard at the same time..
Trolltider and Stjärnhuset still the best adventskalender …
I like "snaps" at the Christmas table!
You are supposed to serve seven different types of cakes, cookies, and buns during the advent fika.
never heard of that x-mas-game – sounds like some really weird familytradition
Try "Trolltyg" julkalender every morning before work with a small cup of glögg and a pepparkaka and after lucia you can dig into a lussekatt. The last three days before x-mas eve – a julvört with sill, lax, ham and or cheese.
I'm not keen on fish , but apart from julskinka you have small meatballs and prinskorv , small sausages for example.
My favourite is Teskedsgumman!
I think the best Christmas calendar is "När Karusellerna Sover" or in english "When the carousels are asleep". That is my personal favorite.
No Christmas without the Aladdin chocolate box and After Eight chocolate thins.
I haven’t seen many Julkalendrar before 2000 maybe just three or four but I’ve seen all the ones that came after and I have to honestly say (maybe unpopular opinion) that En hederlig jul med Knyckertz is up there amongst the top. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this year’s story and it helped a lot that it held some of my favourite Swedish people to really up the class. Well done to everyone who was a part of this year’s julkalender! Others that I really enjoyed include Barna Hedenhös uppfinner/upptäcker (can’t remember) julen and tjuvarnas jul.
The best in my memory ( julkalendern ) is Mysteriet på greveholm 😛
Albert and Herbert is a traditional swedish christmas televisioned calendar, and it's about a working class family who struggles with economy. The comedy speaks out for it self and sometimes it has a touchy meaning. This is a classic!!!
rödbetsallad.. also in russia.. not just sweden 🙂
As an American I think the most fascinating Swedish Christmas tradition is gathering to watch cartoons! It really cracks me up and I love it! I'm not sure this would make everyone's top 5, but it's sure on my top 5 list! God Jul!
My favorite julkalender is ” Mysteriet på greveholm” it’s one of those that you remember even over 20 years later😅
Teskedsgumman.
A lot of people comment that the julskinka (Christmas ham) is cooked. Yes it is, but it's common to buy it pre-cooked, so you might not think about the cooking. Before serving you glace it with a mix including mustard and bread crumbs, and grill it golden in the oven.
No no no. You will boil away the alcohol in about 10 seconds.
I dont mind eating it, but to me its certainly not Christmas food.
Rödbetssallad???
