Sweden's most loved prawn appetiser: cold-water prawns mixed with mayonnaise, creme fraiche, dill, and lemon, mounded on a butter-fried slice of white bread and topped with bleak roe.

Toast Skagen was created by Swedish restaurateur Tore Wretman in the 1950s, named after the Danish town and fishing port at the tip of Jutland. The classic dressing is hand-peeled small shrimps, mayonnaise, dill, lemon and a dollop of bleak roe on a slice of butter-toasted white bread. Gothenburg's seafood-rich version became the city's signature lunchtime starter at Bhoga, SK Mat och Manniskor and Bar Bulot, paired with a glass of cold Riesling or a Pilsner.
