Always enjoy your show. I’m definitely going to make this. I’ll hop over to the piggly wiggly and get the ingredients 😉
ok, I shall try this because Annika gave it a thumbs up , thanks for listing all the ingredients 😋
Interesting! I am thinking that adding bananas would be like adding plantains to savory dishes. And about the old man in the peanuts...when I was young my dad told me I could find Santa in a peanut. I loved splitting peanuts and finding Santa inside!
I think I'll have to make this for my young adult children...I won't share the ingredients til they've eaten some. Anything to "up" my chicken game!
I’d love to see a video of you talking to Mink River Bar staff. Between Als and Minks on our visits, they get all our money 😂! Great video!
I miss you / the crazy swed ❤
Flygande Jakob was invented by Ove Jacobsson, he was not a chef but he worked with air freight that why its flygande (flying) and Jakob is from his last name. I eat it often but I skip the banana. Other variants of this dish is "simmande" Jakob fish instead of chicken. Svävande Jakob a vegiterian version. then you have flying Lotta with chanterell sauce or flygande Kurre with Cassler. But the original was Flygande Jakob The three crowns on the chest is swedish small country weaponshield. Its almost the same as the Swedish police use. The police add some Gold around it.
I just don’t think I could eat this 😮
The only ingredient that seems out of place to me is the ripe banana.
