My Mother made the best bullars and I wish I had taken the time to learn all her secrets. I remember a few... She did say that she preferred using cake to dry yeast. Also, she would never use pre-ground cardamom, but used a brass mortar and cup to crush the seeds. She is right--the taste cannot be compared. I "Googled" bullar and found your blog at the top of my search. Monday night I made a batch using your recipe. They rose as they should have despite a wee mistake I made combining the ingredients. After returning from Christmas break, I shared bullars with teachers in my lunch room and the response was all positive. Thanks for sharing yours with me.

(If I do say so myself) The dough is very easy to work with. I like them because they are not too sweet. These are very, very good. (If I do say so myself) The dough is very easy to work with.

They turned out okay, but not fantastic like I had hoped. Maybe next time I will try your recipe! By the way, I'm one quarter Swedish as well, but I like to be Swedish the whole year round!

And I'm making these RIGHT NOW! The knot tying got a little tricky, but I actually got quite a few decent-looking ones. I'm gonna steal one when they come out of the oven!
