Surstroemming Pickled Herring in Pitea Restaurants, Sweden
From series “The Most Disgusting Dishes in the World”
In Sweden, locals also have their own unique national delicacy called surstromming. That’s a fermented herring that is usually canned. Herring slices in marinade look quite appetizing, as well as meals cooked of it. The main feature of the daunting delicacy is a suffocating smell of rot. As a tin-opener pierces the lid of a can, an awkward odor spreads around.
For this reason, surstromming is often eaten outdoors. There are even special clubs of fans of this delicacy in Sweden. People gather in the nice country clubs and make grandiose dining outdoors, tasting different kinds of this delicacy. The technology of pickled herring production is very simple. Pre-salted fillet is stacked in the open kitchenware, where it remains until the beginning of the fermentation process. After herring begins to ferment, it is placed into cans, where fermentation proceeds in a sealed reservoir.
