SWEDISH CREAMY DILL PRAWN TOASTS WITH CAVIAR - SKAGENRORA



Swedish Creamy Dill Prawn Toasts With Caviar - Skagenrora image

An easy and delightful recipe that makes an elegant starter for a festive cocktail party - served with vodka of course! If caviar is hard to source or is expensive, lumpfish roe can be used. I see this being served for a Midsummer party in honour of the lands of the midnight sun, with assorted vodka cocktails! This festive and very special appetiser was developed by one of the best-known Swedish chefs, Dr Tore Wretman, who served a version of this dish in his Stockholm restaurant in 1958, since when it has become a classic. (This recipe version by Market Kitchen and Swedish chef and cookery writer, Anna Mosesson.)

TOAST SKAGEN - SWEDISH - PRAWN TOAST



Toast Skagen - Swedish - Prawn Toast image

This recipe has been posted here for play in ZWT9 - Scandinavia. This recipe is from website: missmaud.com.au It sounds wonderful to me. Swedish food tends to be influenced by the seasons with the spicing and cooking; often reflecting the storage needs of the peasant communities of old, as in pickled herring, freshly salted or smoked meat, or dairy products that have been curdled, boiled or left to mature.

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces small pre-boiled Swedish shrimp, or rock shrimp, available at IKEA or online
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 lemon, divided
Kosher salt
Small bunch dill, divided
1/4 Pullman loaf, or 3 thick slices of any high-quality white bread
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more as needed
6 leaves green lettuce

Steps:

  • Shrimp: In a bowl, add shrimp, mayonnaise, juice from half a lemon, and salt to taste. Pull the dill fronds from the stems and roughly chop to get 2 tablespoons, loosely packed (reserve the rest for garnish). Add to the shrimp mixture and stir to combine. Set aside.
  • Toast: Slice the bread into ¾-inch slices. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter. When melted, add enough bread slices to fill the pan (about 3). Reduce heat to low and cook 30 seconds. Divide and spread 1 tablespoon butter evenly over the top sides; then flip and cook bread another 30 seconds, adding more butter to the pan as needed. When toast is golden on both sides, transfer to several layers of paper towels to cool, 30 seconds. Cut crust off of toast and slice each piece horizontally into 2 triangles.
  • Assembly: Place toast on a platter. Arrange a lettuce leaf on top of each triangle, making sure the leaf is about the same size as the toast, then add the shrimp. From reserved lemon half, cut three thin slices (wheels), and cut each wheel in half. Make a cut in the middle up to the peel, then twist and place over the shrimp. Garnish with small dill sprigs before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, succulent prawns, creamy dill, and briny caviar are essential for this dish.
  • Don't overcook the prawns. They should be cooked through but still retain a slight pink color in the center.
  • Make sure the bread is toasted until golden brown. This will help it to hold up under the weight of the toppings.
  • Be generous with the dill. It's the star of the show in this dish, so don't be afraid to use a lot of it.
  • Serve the toasts immediately. They're best enjoyed fresh, while the prawns are still warm and the caviar is still cold.

Swedish creamy dill prawn toasts with caviar (Skagenröra) are a delicious and elegant appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They're easy to make, yet impressive enough to serve at a party. The combination of creamy dill, succulent prawns, and briny caviar is simply irresistible. So next time you're looking for a special appetizer, give these toasts a try. You won't be disappointed!
