Heaped treats
These heaped rye bread treats were popular with everyone from farmers and factory workers to the lavish urban elite, one hundred years ago. Until recently, Smørrebrød had fallen slightly out of fashion, but new trends in Denmark to focus on traditional dishes and ingredients have brought the handy lunch item back on the menu.
Smørrebrød at home and abroad!
Nowadays, you can even get smørrebrød in New York City, thanks to Danish chef Adam Aamann [2]. A whole new generation have fallen in love with the no-frills concept of bread and a mouth-watering variety of toppings spilling over. You can sample tradition smørrebrød in countless cafés, pubs and restaurants across Denmark and many places are offering healthier options. So pile up the herring, sausage, egg, pate and pork and have fun finding your favourite smørrebrød!
