Main article: Julbord
The Swedish Christmas smörgåsbord consists of three courses. The first is a variety of fish, usually different types of pickled herring and salmon, eaten with boiled potatoes or crisp bread.
The second is cold cuts of meat, with the Christmas ham being the most important. Sausages, head cheese and leverpastej are also common, eaten with boiled potatoes or on crisp bread.
The third course consists of warm dishes such as meatballs, small fried sausages and Janssons frestelse.
Lutfisk is sometimes served with the third course or as a fourth course. Common drinks are Christmas beer, julmust and schnapps.
