Skagen Toast with Shrimp
4 servings
15 minutes
This toast with shrimp salad and mayonnaise, named after not even a Swedish but a Danish port, was invented by restaurateur Ture Wretman. In the post-war decades, when foreign fast food threatened local culinary traditions , he acted as their guardian. And now "Skagen" is available in almost every restaurant in Sweden - both expensive and not so.
