Endlich habe ich etwas Surströmming zum Frühstück gegessen. Ich wollte es mit etwas Weißbier, vergaß es aber zu kaufen, also hatte ich nur etwas kanadisches starkes IPA. Der Geruch war nicht so stark, wie es auf YouTube-Videos dargestellt wurde. aber der Geschmack ist erstaunlich. 8/10 würde es empfehlen.

Most likely because you open the surströmming outside and also that tin look like it still good, so many youtubers get swollen tins that not even we Swedes would touch.
I think the smell is pretty bad, but you seem to be outdoors. We always open them outdoors but still the smell accumulates indoors and usually lingers in the house for about a day.
As someone who loves surströmming: wholly heck that’s a lot of it for a single piece of bread!
That is a shitload of surströmming at once. Less gives a better balance in taste.
Mobilstödet 10/10
Thank you for doing it properly. Most youtubers have rancid old cans that should be disposed of
Radio the mothership – great beer.
Yea I get that a lot… did you find any work around?
Uppdutt for the Mothership!
This is actually quite genious, not sure why we allways eat it in the summer. the smell must be night and day opening it in freezing temperatures instead of a hot can on a 25C summer day.
We just love it. Smell is bad but you can run it under water when opening.
IPA to surströmming? Not my weapon of choice. I would have picked a lager or something lighter but as we say in sweden: the taste is like the ass; divided.
For once Youtubers are not exaggerating .. the smell really IS that bad. Try opening it up indoors next time 🙂
Nice going to try it! Although you seem to like the taste which is great this seems like very strong sandwhich like others pointed out, there’s A LOT right there and too little extras. I usually say that you don’t eat the fish primarily since so little goes into the sandwhich, it’s the additions that make the meal.
Some suggestions
Traditionally a hard thin wafer bread(no worries I’m sure that is great when snowed in, you take what you have!)
Mash potatoes on the bottom(mandelpotatis)
Put on some cream(gräddfil or creme fraiche), with chive and dill
Add the toppings
Newly ground black pepper
Additionally, strip the skin of the fishes and use half of what you did right there. Since the fish is very strong salty there’s not much needed to make it balanced.
That’s my favorite beer, never occured to me that it’s Canadian!
Just gotta say that radio the mothership is a really good beer!
Happy you liked it, might offend some purists out there but i really prefer this to people going on and on about how disgusting they think it is.
Had a friend from Canada try it when he visited a couple of years ago and he enjoyed it as well.
… Is it common to use Limpa as bread in some part of Sweden? Asking because I don“t see a single comment saying „wrong bread“.
Though Tunnbröd was mandatory.
Surströmming lover here, why so much on one piece of bread (supposed to be a thin bread, not thick like in the picture)? You’re supposed to make the fish last, 1/4 of that is enough. And for a beginner, 1/8, spread ouit (yes, it’s basically spreadable – that’s how I prepare my surströmming wraps at least). Note that the juice is clear as it should be, this is not like the over fermented semi-dissolved surströmming you can see on YouTube videos where it’s just a mess and close to unedible (hence why they puke etc.).
