The horseradish cream was a bit too spicy for me. I would recommend using less horseradish next time.

This smorrebrod was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with smoked salmon instead of herring.

This smorrebrod was easy to make and absolutely delicious. I used store-bought mustard herring and beetroots, but the horseradish cream was definitely the star of the show. I'll be making this again for sure.

I'm not usually a fan of herring, but this recipe changed my mind. The mustard and beets really mellowed out the flavor of the herring. I'll definitely be making this again.

This smorrebrod was a hit! The flavors of the mustard herring, beets, and horseradish cream paired perfectly together. I especially loved the crispy rye bread. It was the perfect vessel for all the delicious toppings.
