TOAST SKAGEN FROM SMORGASBORD

Classic Toast with Shrimp and Roe ||| Text excerpted from SMORGASBORD © 2017 by Johanna Kindvall ||| Despite the fact that it's named after a Danish fishing port, Toast Skagen is a classic Swedish appetizer. It was invented in the 1950s by Tore Wretman, founder of the Gastronomic Academy in Sweden, while he was on a sailing trip to Skagen, Denmark's northernmost town. When his sailboat suddenly lost wind, Wretman cheered up his crew by whisking together some mayonnaise, hand- peeled shrimp, and fresh dill, then piled it on butter- fried bread and topped it with golden whitefish caviar. This version has the addition of horseradish, which I think goes really well with shrimp. For this recipe, I suggest using extra- small precooked shrimp, but you can also substitute raw shrimp- just be sure to cook them in salted water for a few minutes until cooked through and let them cool completely before adding them to the rest of the ingredients.

Steps:

  • Cut the shrimp into smaller pieces.
  • In a medium-size bowl, mix together the dill, lemon juice, relish, and mayonnaise. Add the shrimp and gently mix together. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter, then fry the bread slices until they are a nice color on both sides. You can also toast the slices in a toaster and butter each of them.
  • Arrange each toast on individual small plates. Divide the shrimp salad equally and spread it evenly on each toast. Top with the roe and garnish with a few sprigs of dill. Serve immediately.

TOAST SKAGEN

This starter, named for a fishing port in northern Denmark, was created by Swedish restaurateur Tore Wretman in 1958. Its appeal remains fresh and modern. If there is an Ikea near you, swing by to pick up the precooked small Swedish shrimp available there; they are a real taste of Sweden.

CLASSIC SWEDISH TOAST SKAGEN

From About.com, this is a classic Swedish recipe. First introduced in 1958, Toast Skagen is now served at many restaurants across the country. It's a recipe that lends itself to experimentation - try adding minced onion or grated horseradish to taste (some recipes even add a dash of chili sauce), or substitute baked potatoes or avocados for the fried toast points.

  • Top each toast with a teaspoon of salmon roe. Garnish with lemon slices and additional dill and serve.

1 lb cooked shrimp, baby-sized peeled and chilled
3 tablespoons mayonnaise, chilled
3 tablespoons sour cream, chilled or 3 tablespoons cream, frache chilled
