I'm still confused regarding the picture....

It's a split sausage but took me a while too

Classic Swedish Christmas dish. Microwaved sausage.

I must know more

Either I'm hoping I'm gonna learn about a strange tradition or that I'm about to read a load of carefully crafted bullshit to seem like the former.

Either way I'm happy, so tell me more about your traditional festively microwaved sausages

We take the korv, it's red skin colored with falu rödfärg, and it is microwaved to just before it cracks open. After that we cut the skin and put on mustard and ketchup. It is served with whole grilled onion and Pyssling Pudding. A mix of lime jell-o and chocolate.

Okay I was with you until

Served with [...] Pyssling Pudding. A mix of lime jell-o and chocolate.

What in the hell, this clearly goes much deeper than I imagined

Regular Ordinary Swedish Meal Time to the rescue! (Though here specifically they do not microwave it)

Such a shame that they ran out of ideas after they moved apartments and were never able to step away from the kitchen smashing with viking weaponry running joke. They were good dudes. I still have their apron lying around.

After staring at it for a good 15 or so seconds, after knowing that, I can kinda see how it looks like a hotdog lol
