Gule ærter (Split Pea Soup)
“Gule ærter” translates literally to “yellow peas.” It’s a soup that is usually cooked on salt pork, but we use bacon and ham in ours, since it’s more widely available where we are.

If you’ve been here on our blog before, you’ll know that we love cinnamon buns. Our first ever recipe was for kanelsnegle (cinnamon snails), and we also posted a slightly more complicated version.
Welcome to our fourth Danish pastry recipe! We gave you spandauer, then tebirkes, then kanelsnegle, and now – frøsnapper! If we sound excited about it, that’s because we are.
If you’ve ever had a flødebolle, you’ll understand what I mean when I say that it’s a transformational experience. There’s nothing quite like eating one of these.
There have been lots of holidays over the past few days – Lunar New Year, Valentine’s Day, Fastelavn – so whatever you celebrate, we hope it was a good one!
This weekend is Shrove Sunday, and in Denmark (and some other Nordic countries), that means it’s Fastelavn, aka time for baked goods and fun traditions!
Frikadeller, or Danish meatballs, are one of the most classic Danish dishes. They (obviously) aren’t a baked good, like most of our other recipes, but we just couldn’t stop ourselves from sharing!
We’ve just been hit by a snowstorm here in the northeastern US, which calls for lots of hearty and filling dinner dishes! One of our favorites is these flødekartofler, or Danish scalloped potatoes.
Happy February! We’ve got a fun little theme to tell you about this month. Starting with this post, all of our February recipes will start with the letter “F”.
