I promise. I would never force you to eat fermented herring (sw. surströmming). It is a northern Swedish delicacy food. However, many people never get used to neither the smell nor the taste. They are avoiding this fermented food dish forever. Those who are familiar with the durian fruit say that fermented herring stinks worse.
The Baltic herring is caught in spring, when it is just about to spawn, then fermented in barrels with a minimum of salt for one to two months, and finally tinned where the fermentation continues.
Green bell peppers stuffed with ground beef, onion and rice, and then baked and topped with spaghetti sauce.

Tomorrow, the 17th of May, it is public holiday (Ascension Day) in Sweden.
Tomorrow Norway celebrates its Constitution. Norwegians certainly know how to celebrate their National Day!
Hurray for Sweden’s neighbour-country and all the people of Norway on their National Day on the 17th of May!
A special warm greeting to my Norwegian friends!

Here we are on Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, the archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean. (Early explorers discovered a great many dogs on the islands, hence the name from the Latin canis, meaning dog). Originally inhabited by Berberlike peoples, known as Guanches.
We are sitting in the cave restaurant Tagoror, Barranco de Guayadeque, having “papas arrugadas con mojo”. The Barranco de Guayadeque is a valley stretching from Gran Canaria’s coast into the heart of the island. Within this valley there are hundreds of old Guanche caves and burial chambers. The traditional Guanche way of cooking potatoes was in sea water, they say.
