tulda

Tulda, often referred to as Tilda, is a traditional Norwegian dish. It is a type of savory pancake or crepelike creation, typically made from a batter of flour, milk, eggs, and sometimes a pinch of salt. The batter is then fried in a pan, similar to how crêpes are made.

The defining characteristic of tulda is its filling and preparation method. Once cooked, the thin pancake is often spread with a filling. A common and traditional filling is rømme, a type of Norwegian sour cream, sometimes mixed with chives or other herbs. The tulda is then rolled or folded around this filling.

Tulda can be served as a light meal or a snack. It is often enjoyed warm, straight from the pan. While rømme is a classic accompaniment, variations in fillings can exist, though they tend to remain relatively simple to complement the delicate flavor of the pancake. The dish is rooted in Norwegian home cooking and represents a straightforward yet satisfying way to prepare a simple batter into a more substantial offering.
