TOAST SKAGEN
This starter, named for a fishing port in northern Denmark, was created by Swedish restaurateur Tore Wretman in 1958. Its appeal remains fresh and modern. If there is an Ikea near you, swing by to pick up the precooked small Swedish shrimp available there; they are a real taste of Sweden.

SHRIMP AND DILL TOAST (TOAST SKAGEN)
This elegant shrimp salad on buttery toast is a Swedish classic, perfect for springtime entertaining or a light lunch. Aquavit chef Emma Bengtsson uses tiny pre-cooked shrimp from Sweden (available at IKEA or online): their delicate briny flavor is important to the dish, and an ingredient worth seeking out.

Steps:
- Shrimp: In a bowl, add shrimp, mayonnaise, juice from half a lemon, and salt to taste. Pull the dill fronds from the stems and roughly chop to get 2 tablespoons, loosely packed (reserve the rest for garnish). Add to the shrimp mixture and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Toast: Slice the bread into ¾-inch slices. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter. When melted, add enough bread slices to fill the pan (about 3). Reduce heat to low and cook 30 seconds. Divide and spread 1 tablespoon butter evenly over the top sides; then flip and cook bread another 30 seconds, adding more butter to the pan as needed. When toast is golden on both sides, transfer to several layers of paper towels to cool, 30 seconds. Cut crust off of toast and slice each piece horizontally into 2 triangles.
- Assembly: Place toast on a platter. Arrange a lettuce leaf on top of each triangle, making sure the leaf is about the same size as the toast, then add the shrimp. From reserved lemon half, cut three thin slices (wheels), and cut each wheel in half. Make a cut in the middle up to the peel, then twist and place over the shrimp. Garnish with small dill sprigs before serving.
TOAST SKAGEN - SWEDISH - PRAWN TOAST
This recipe has been posted here for play in ZWT9 - Scandinavia. This recipe is from website: missmaud.com.au It sounds wonderful to me. Swedish food tends to be influenced by the seasons with the spicing and cooking; often reflecting the storage needs of the peasant communities of old, as in pickled herring, freshly salted or smoked meat, or dairy products that have been curdled, boiled or left to mature.

CLASSIC SWEDISH TOAST SKAGEN
From About.com, this is a classic Swedish recipe. First introduced in 1958, Toast Skagen is now served at many restaurants across the country. It's a recipe that lends itself to experimentation - try adding minced onion or grated horseradish to taste (some recipes even add a dash of chili sauce), or substitute baked potatoes or avocados for the fried toast points.
