Kalvdans is a classical Swedish dessert. It is made out of unpasteurized colostrum milk, the first milk given produced by a cow after giving birth.[1]
Kalvdans has a long tradition in Swedish cuisine. It is mentioned in the encyclopedia Project af swensk grammatica. The encyclopedia mentions 'kalvost' (lit. calf-cheese) as an alternative name.[2]
In preparing the dessert, the colostrum milk is carefully heated.[1] Due to the high levels of protein in the colostrum milk, it coagulates and hardens when boiled (much like eggs do). Thus the dessert gets a pudding-like consistency.[3]
Due to Swedish health regulations, unpasteurized milk may only be sold directly from the farms. Thus the capacity to produce kalvdans is somewhat limited.[3] Thus, kalvdans is very rarely prepared in Swedish households today.[2]
A related dessert is råmjölspannkaka.[2] Similar desserts like kalvdans exists in other countries. In Iceland, a pudding called Ábrystir is made out of colostrum milk. In England colostrum milk, or beestings, was traditionally used for puddings. In India junnu is a dessert made out of colostrum milk from buffaloes.[3]
