SWEDISH PICKLED CUCUMBER SALAD (INLAGD GURKA)
I can't think of a family event where these haven't appeared on the table. My Swedish grandmother made these for her family and the tradition continues - it was originally made with without dill - as it's written here - but feel free to add fresh dill - it's yummy both ways!

AQUAVIT'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS
This is Marcus Samuelsson's rendition of the perennial favorite. The sauce is wonderful, unctuous. They should be served with garlicky mashed potatoes, quick pickled cucumbers and extra lingonberry preserves. The pickled cucumbers (and their juice) are really easy to make and the recipe is posted. If you can't find lingonberry preserves (a pity) you can substitute whole cranberry relish.
