Västerbotten Ost Paj – Västerbotten Cheese Pie. This is one of the best classic pie in Sweden. Normally we served this during the midsummer tradition party. Served with homemade Red Onions Pickled, Caviar, Creme Fraiche & Dill. I don’t have the at home, so I just made the Red Onions Pickled for serving and it would be perfect with a glass of wine  but it’s too early to open a bottle of wine hihihi..The sweetness of the pickles matches the saltiness of the cheese, perfect combo for sure?! So far this cheese has become many peoples favorites. One of them is our Om @william_wongso_kuliner who really love this cheese (nanti aku bawain lagi Om kalo mudik)
