Today the food on my table was from GUDAGOTT.
This store at Mariaplan has delicious food and sweet personnel.
Vilt salami from Jämtland - an aha-experience
Kalvdans (calf dance)- cultural dessert from Västergötland
Calf dance is made from raw cow milk, only 5% fat and is flavoured with sugar, spices etc.
The raw milk is the first, dark yellow milk that the cow gives after kalvning (giving birth to her calves). This milk contains extra of everything, more fat, more vitamins, more iron and a lot of antibodies. The yellow color is due to increased amounts of caroten and vitamin A. The antibodies - up to 60 gram per litre raw milk - help the calf to get it's immune system going, including f.ex lactoferrin which has antibacterial features. The amount of protein makes the raw milk 'coagulating' when heated, just like eggs. This is the secret behind the consistency of kalvdans, and also the reason why raw milk is not sent to the dairies. Unfortunately this dessert is facing extinction.
Kalvdans can only be distributed by local stores.
It is best served warm and perhaps with some jam and tastes something like pannacotta or creme brulée.
