This homemade white chocolate cake with lemon is both sweet and refreshing. The cake is very moist topped with a white chocolate ganache, which makes the cake melt in your mouth. You can serve it on a summer day, at eastern, or as a birthday cake. If you prefer the cake even sweeter, you can decorate it with a soft meringue instead of whip cream.
This is not a dessert or breakfast pancake, this is a main dish that is traditionally served with lingonberry jam (a non-sweet jam most probably to be found in a Scandinavian shop or at IKEA).
This potato gratin with anchovy (Janssons frestelse) is a classic on every Swedish Christmas tables and most of the eastern tables. The recipe got it name in the 1940 when it was published. This is a different fish dish, without the typical fishy taste.
