I got away from here for awhile and forgot to reply to your post - when I put up that history of the Mattson family I found a whole slew of them replying from that area. As for the flatbread, grandma was a trained pastry chef with a thick Swedish accent so half the time none of us could understand her but she did a version of this with candied fruits on it (kind of like a fruitcake deal). Sure was good!

Looks like a good one and I like his videos (the way he does them). Hadn't heard about the German connection. Not a big corndog guy - but the salisbury steak he did I'm all for. I am learning a lot about the original cooking and the country my grandparents escaped from (desperate poverty there at the time (1906 - Sweden): https://www.newscancook.com have a PBS show as well. By looking at the show and the harsh conditions I now know why my Viking ancestors conquered 3/4 of the known world in their day: they were desperate for recipes. Simple as that. Lutefisk just doesn't cut it on a daily basis.

You have actually had this??? If so, on behalf of Sweden and all Swede's everywhere living or dead: I sincerely apologize! May your taste buds recover.

we gather at the local places all the time, some wanting the fish, some the melted butter and salt.

Wow! You did a great job. I can tell you his "Bobby Flay beating" chicken fried steak was great as well.
