Soup and pancakes


In Sweden and maybe in some more countries? we have a tradition to eat pea soap and pancakes on thursdays. So now we are preparing for that and to the pancakes we serve raspberries/blueberries that are heated to a jam and whipped cream.

Yummie;=)

  1. In Italy we don't eat pancakes with peas. We eat peas with onion and bacon or sauce with tomato for pasta. Do you like italian food? If yes, which is you favourite? Do you eat pancakes for dinner? For dinner today my dad is cooking chicken breast steamed with red wine. Very good!! Have nice dinner and evening! Big hugs

  7. WoW!! I think I would love that! hahah
    Here in Spain we dont have that tradition. But we have a common dish made with peas as well. You have to boil the peas with sausages, blood/black pudding or blood/black sausages (I dont know how it is said in English cause I've never seen them in England xD but I think that's OK) and also with beaf, pork or chiken. Some people make it with the three of them to give it more flavor. You can also add vegetables like carrots, potatoes, onion... although we dont normally eat them. Just to give it flavor as well.
    That's typical Spanish!! ahah It's is a very heavy food but it's really nice. We call it "cocido" xDD

  8. In Serbia, this dish is called "pasulj" and we don't have a specific day when we eat it, but this meal is most often served on celebrations and such events that involve many people invited. That's because pasulj tastes better when made in larger quantities. I had it yesterday, btw. :)

    In Spain the tradition is to eat on sundays
    some fish, 'paella' or 'cocido' (so typical from here hehehe)

  11. That kinda looks good...

    We have soo much snow in Ohio today,
    and they had to let us out of school early.
    I would like to have some soup,
    especially with how cold it is outside.

    Enjoy your night!

    Hugs and love, Katie T.

  12. Hey Anette!

    This looks mouthwatering. :) I like this tradition. Here in Greece from as far as I know we don't have this kind of tradition. But Greek cuisine is really delicious. And when saying Greek cuisine I certainly do not mean things like souvlaki or things like that. It is much more interesting than that!
    I could eat some soup as well right now. The photo you put looks delicious!

    Have a great night. :)

  13. That looks and sounds really yummy. It would be perfect to eat on a day like today too. It's snowing here now, and soup would definitely be perfect.

    Your childhood pics were adorable! Thank you so much, as with everything else you share here, for doing so.

  14. Hi Anette,
    here in Hungary it's not a tradition, but we eat soup very often. Almost every day. A "normal" hungarian lunch is unimaginable without soup :)

  15. Here in Brazil we do not have that tradition. What usually eat here is rice and beans with something else, may be meat, vegetables or anything else. A very traditional food here in Brazil is the "feijoada" which is black beans mixed with various meats, but I do not like much =)
    But this pea soup and pancakes seem to be delicious .... Yumieee = D
    Well, have a great night.
    Hugs and best wishes from Brazil =)

  22. Seems to me that many who has left their comments actually think that peasoup is eaten with pancakes. Pretty interesting combination if you ask me...

    Actually you eat your soup first and then enjoy your pancakes with jam and whipped cream as a dessert. Or at least we do it like that here in Finland ;0)
