Salmon and Prawns with Dill-Mustard Cream © kvalifood.com

Salmon and prawns together on one smørrebrød is a combination that comes out when you want to signal a bit of extra effort. The cold-smoked salmon gives a silky texture and deep smoky flavour, while the prawns add sweetness and bite. The dill-mustard cream ties the two elements together with its sharp, herby character. This is a smørrebrød you typically see at parties and office lunches, served on white bread with pickled red onions as a sour counterpoint to the two fish elements. The combination is generous without being complicated, and that is precisely what makes it popular.
