Raggmunk (potato pancake) · Stockholm
A grated-potato pancake fried crisp in butter, served with crisp bacon and lingonberry jam. The hearty Swedish farmer's lunch and a husmanskost canon dish.
Raggmunk codified in 19th-century rural Sweden as a use-up dish for grated leftover potatoes. The word raggmunk means hairy monk (the texture of the strands of grated potato). The dish entered Stockholm's bruna krogar through working-class migration north and remains on every husmanskost menu. Pelikan on Blekingegatan and Lilla Ego's modernised version with löjrom are both reference Stockholm interpretations.
