Trying Swedish Salted Licorice For The First Time

This was the event I filmed at - • Retro Outdoors Gatheri...

[@LitoGeorge]

How different is it to Dutch salted liquorice? (Dubbel zout - or double salt) - my favourite.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I've only had the normal Dutch licorice which btw is literally the nicest I have ever eaten, way better than the shop bought licorice in the UK ~Peace~

[@marsoelflaco5722]

Zed's reaction!!!😵✌🏾

[@Zedoutdoors]

The battle of the awkward thumbnail pictures... ~Peace~

[@Wee_Morag]

Salted liquorice is a bit like marmite. People either love it or hate it. I'm a fan of both. 😊

[@Zedoutdoors]

Indeed yes, alas Marmite is a no for me too :) ~Peace~

[@barbedstar6480]

My Grandpa got me hooked on Sen-Sens when I was tiny (much to my Mom's dismay - non-licorice person)...next logical step was serious licorice and that was Swedish Salted. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it! Thanks, Zed.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I adore licorice and so trying salted variety was something I was eager to do, they are not common in the UK as it is in Scandinavia ~Peace~

[@ivancho5854]

Ha, ha! I grew up with Dutch salted licorice which is called Drop. It's soooo good and kind of addictive. All the kids would do anything for it. You took me back, thanks. And thank you so much for all the wonderful work that you do on your channel. 👍 All the best from bonnie Scotland.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I tried normal Dutch licorice for the first time last year, chalk board I think it;s called, and it's honestly the nicest licorice I have ever tried, no doubt the salted variety takes getting used to! I sincerely appreciate the kind words and to hear you have enjoyed the videos, stay blessed ~Peace~

[@joaquimrasi6822]

Ooh yes it’s good 👍 Love that reaction brother. Greetings from Norway

[@Zedoutdoors]

Was this something you tried for the first time when moving to Norway? ~Peace~

[@joaquimrasi6822]

Yes I tried it in Sweden, The Danish version also & ofcourse here in Norway. They all feel their one is best .... That's how all those Viking disputes started 😉🤣

[@wtoddmartin5388]

I like licorice, so I'm inspired to buy some myself.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I like licorice too, the nicest i've tried so far is from the Netherlands ~Peace~

[@TheShurikenZone]

I remember my first go at salmiak licorice; an eye-opening affair, certainly! haha Awesome video, Zed. 😁👍👍

[@Zedoutdoors]

lol I definitely won't be forgetting this taste test in a hurry! :) ~Peace~

[@debbiej.2168]

It's either cold there, or that licorice has you breathing fire.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Both! :) ~Peace~

[@RDPproject]

*OMG Zed!!!* Im salivating right now. I love this stuff. I grew up on it when I was a kid living in Denmark.

[@Zedoutdoors]

You can have my share next time lol :) ~Peace~

[@JohnGault2398]

The first time I had salted licorice, it was double salt. It was very intense.

[@Zedoutdoors]

Wowser I bet! ~Peace~

[@lukeshepherd9529]

Accidentally bought these once and I love liquorice. Had to throw them away!

[@Zedoutdoors]

Ha! i'm glad a tried these but suffice to say i'll be sticking to normal licorice moving forward ~Peace~

[@WiltshireMan]

Probably an acquired taste:)

[@Zedoutdoors]

Very much so! hope you're keeping well Sandy ~Peace~

[@RDPproject]

*I LOVE it Sandy*

[@adrianfbird]

They do an awesome ice cream same flavour

[@Zedoutdoors]

I didn't know that so must try that out when i next get the chance ~Peace~

[@LoreTunderin]

Any idea what brand that was? I'd love to order some to try for myself 😊

[@josefn2392]

"Djungelvrål", a yellow bag with a monkey on it, iirc

[@lukeshepherd9529]

If you're anywhere near a Søstrene Grene they stock it.

[@Zedoutdoors]

I wasn't aware of Søstrene Grene so i must check them out ~Peace~

[@LoreTunderin]

@@lukeshepherd9529 I don't think we have that store in Canada, was hoping they might sell it on amazon

[@a.ndrea_cortes]

🤣 I made that mistake once

[@Zedoutdoors]

lol I think everyone has this reaction when trying it for the first time! :-) ~Peace~

[@createlovehappy]

But I’m not gonna try another bit…😅😅😅

[@Zedoutdoors]

I know right! 😄 ~Peace~

[@adrianfbird]

And alcohol too very good

[@Zedoutdoors]

Best not dirve after eating that variety! ~Peace~

[@gigi3242]

Oh, you were so brave! and then your friend put a handful in his mouth, lol I loathe licorice.

[@Zedoutdoors]

lol the Swedes love the stuff, I do like licorice but the salted version was a first for me ~Peace~

Ha! :) ~Peace~

[@liammalarky3483]

I love liquorice, but that looked a bit too heavy on the salt for me. It'd fair draw yer cheeks the gither. A wee bit of salt in food brings out the flavour, but oofyah... 😀

[@Zedoutdoors]

I've since learnt that there are even saltier versions of licorice available, alas this was enough for me! ~Peace~

[@PSB0nd]

Good old salmiak :) Not actually salt (NaCl), but a salt - ammonium chloride ([NH₄]Cl). Or sal ammoniac as it used to be called. Next up, Zed tries hákarl, surströmming , lutefisk, durian...? There's a whole series of possibilities.

[@Zedoutdoors]

From what I've been told about surströmming trying that may be my last ever video... ~Peace~

[@debbiej.2168]

I was going to suggest fermented Greenland shark after your comment, but when I looked it up, I saw it was called hakarl.
