Upplandskubb is traditionally produced in the province of Uppland in Sweden. [1]
Oldest known recipes date to the 19th century from Älgesta farm in Husby-Ärlinghundra parish. [2] [3] Although a traditional food, the bread did not receive the Upplandskubb name until sometime in the 1920s when a Stockholm woman, Elisabet Langenberg, came across it and became interested. [3]
The bread is traditionally made from rye and wheat flours. [4] The dough is typically fermented for three hours or more and baked for over four hours. The bread is unique in Sweden as it is baked by being boiled in a bain-marie, which keeps it from forming a crust; [4] [3] no other boiled bread is known in Sweden. [3]
The bread is then to be left to sit after baking for at least a day and then cut, making it savory and rich. [2] The finished product is moist and sticky with a small crumb and a crumbly texture. [4] [3] Flavors are sweet and sour rye. [4]
It is cut into four vertical pieces which are cut crosswise into quarter-circle slices. [3] The bread is typically served with cured herring, lard or onion. It is commonly served at Christmastime. [4] [3] The bread keeps well. [3]
This bread was registered for a Protected Designation of Origin designation in the European Union in 2014; [5] [6] [7] the designation was granted in 2021. [1] The designation requires the dough to be made of locally-produced flours. [3] It has been taken on board the Ark of Taste by Slow Food. [3]
