Blodpalt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blodpalt is an old-fashioned Swedish dish not likely to be eaten very often in modern times.^{[citation needed]} The dish's history goes back to a time when the peasants carefully made use of all parts of the animals to get enough food.

Blodpalt is essentially pitepalt - similar to kroppkakor - a kind of potato dumplings, although in blodpalt, blood is also added. This made the dish a nutritious meal often eaten during the dark part of the year.
