Yellow pea soup with cured pork and marjoram, traditionally followed by thin Swedish pancakes (pannkakor) with whipped cream and lingonberry jam. The Thursday-lunch ritual across Sweden.
The Thursday ärtsoppa tradition dates to medieval Sweden when Friday was a fasting day, so Thursday meant a hearty meal to carry workers through.
