On my recent trip to Sweden, I had some flavoursome food.
At a fish restaurant, the mussels were so tasty, I only have an image of the empty shells:
…but at the castle in Landskrona, I got this image of my very tasty pickled herring sandwich before I started:
Linked to Ailsa’s site here.
MMM,mmmmmmm!
😀😀😀😀😀
Not a fan of pickled herring, but I could eat those tasty mussels all day!
Nice shots, Sue.
Best wishes, Pete.
Are you thinking of Rollmops? If so, I’m not a fan! But these were delicate and gently fennel flavoured…yum!
I was probably thinking of rollmops, Sue. Happy to take your word about the more delicate dish. 🙂
😀
Especially love the mussel shells shot – a dish heartily enjoyed!
It was indeed a dish heartily enjoyed…..
This looks so tasty that I get hungry, Sue.
Very good! Or not, maybe….depends on when you’re next eating
Teehee!
Love the Swedish 🇸🇪 kitchen very much. Very well captured, Sue! 🙂
That Herring sandwich was wonderful, something new to me….
Were you offered a surströmming 🇸🇪? That’s one not to miss …😏
No idea!! I just saiid I would have the herring, and Vivi ordered it!
Good choice! You’d fall over by the smell of Sürstömming. 😉
I looked it up – don’t fancy the idea of fermented fish! I’ll eat most things, but that wouldn’t be one of them!!
I’ve no idea what I’d find to eat there!
Oh, of course… 😟
I love mussels and thankfully, Aldi here in the US sells them frozen with sauce for an unbelievable price and they are SO good!! I also find it interesting to see some of the differences between British English and American English. For instance, rather than “flavoursome” (which, if we did say it, would be spelled “flavorsome”), we would say “flavorful.” But either way, these two dishes look delicious.

Both dishes were delicious! And as to English, well….English English is the original!!😊
🙂
Food photography? A bit of a departure for you. It sounds as if you had a great time.
Haha…I don’t usually do food, but I thought I would like a reminder!!
Yum and yum, but especially the mussels. 🙂
Hehe! Once upon a time, I was very ill with Mussels, but I still risk them from time to time, because I so love the flavour!
That’s brave; bit I totally understand.
Brave or foolhardy!
Empty is usually my plate before the photo happens! I’ve struggled with this challenge as a result!
But i love your shells (I can imagine the flavour). Not so keen on the other one as I don’t like picked fish!
I rarely take images of food….. And as for the herring, it was so subtly done, I defy you not to like it!!
love the empty shells!! I bet you made short work of them!
Gobbled them up, Hannah!!
