Swedish Pizza

Pizza has been a staple in our diet since moving to Sweden.  Pizza was brought here by Italian immigrants and almost every Swedish pizzeria is owned and operated by immigrants from one of the many countries that border the Mediterranean Sea.  Our favorite pizzeria is Pizza Hornet (Corner) by George.

 Swedish pizza is much different than its American counterpart as the crust is much thinner and usually not as loaded with toppings.  They also have some unique pizza flavors. 

   A favorite of Swedes is kebab pizza which includes traditional kebab toppings as well as yogurt and hot sauces.

My personal favorite is the curry pizza. 

 It has a curry sauce topped with ham, pineapple, and bananas.

Cyle trying curry pizza for the first time...he wasn't a big fan.

Cyle's favorite was Hawaiian Pizza

No matter if you’re sitting down or taking it home, every pizza in Sweden is served with an included order of “pizza salad,” a sour combination of shredded raw cabbage, oil, vinegar and spices. It's an acquired taste and not one that I ever acquired.  

I'm going to miss Swedish pizza!
