The Swedish dish of fermented herring isn't to everyone's taste, mainly due to the horrendous smell of it, but it's worth a try. You eat it on flatbread with chopped onions and cold boiled potato (almond potatoes) and sometimes a kind of fermented milk, a bit like creme fraiche. An acquired taste but worth risking.
Usually served in summer at outdoor cafes.
