"These boneheads from buzzfeed" shots fired

Out of all the videos on Surstromming, besides the ones of actual Swedes in their backyards enjoying it, I think this is the most respectful one to the heritage and the one which most portrays it as a potentially enjoyable thing. I may actually want to try this someday, under the right circumstances...

0:28 the way she pronounce it was very satisfying

Oh, hey. Look. A video about surströmming that contains common sense. Nice.

And this is how you eat surströmming. Glad they dissed the silly viral videos that 'demonstrate that fermented fish is disgusting'.

This is the most accurate video about Surströmming on yt!!

Curiously, a lot of fermented foods (without additives), are an acquired taste. I particularly like natto, or really soft camembert. And the texture is not a problem at all. I also ate snails (typical in Spain), but most people find it gross. Fun fact: Roman soldiers carried snails with them, to cook while marching to far away places. It was a kind of “fast food” of ancient times.

This is a good point, to have surströmming in traditional way, as a part of the meal, rather than just eating it straight from the can like a jackass.

if your gonna experience the culture, at least have the courtesy to do it right

Karthik surya kand vanaver indoo

Thanks for this one - I’ve been curious about it and glad to understand the chemistry behind the ferment. Plus it was nice to hear about the history and watch people enjoy surströmming.

Karthik surya😂

This video earned you a new subscriber. No over dramatic millenial bullshit. No bonheads from buzzfeed as you said. So refreshing! Thank you.

I open in plastic bag as to not may the spray going all over the place. But once cracked open you can take it out of the water/bag. And you also can drink light beer or milk to it. And also start with small bites in the beginning. And have tomatoes to the mix. Opening the can outside, but you can eat it inside.

Tremendously educational! Big round of applause for you all.

Thank You for making a proper video about Surströmming.

Would be quite interesting to see a video on balut. The way the flavors and textures change in the egg is really nice. And it’s incredibly healthy!

Love the production value on these videos

Beautiful family, thank you for sharing 😀

I eat this every day. Love it

The moment you are preparing this dish... the flies mysteriously appear!

This is the fanciest video about Surströming i've seen.

Finally a video about this food that makes sense and informative. Some video just tells you how awful it is, and its not helping those people who wants to learn and understand. I laughed when they mentioned "boneheads from buzzfeed".

An excellent and informative video.

My Swedish friend said that people open and eat surstromming outdoors because the smell is just so strong.

"Buzzfeed bumheads" lol

I got a can of this shipped to me in Canada and because of this video I will open it outside. Thank you. The potatoes look good.

I'm extra jealous! 😠 It's, like, impossible for me to do a midsomer surströmming feast in Baltimore. I haven't had any since I was a kid in Sweden, but I can still taste it and want to have it again. With at least a third of the Skone bottle, as it is also in my top five liquors.

I really really like to try it, I'm from SEA so plenty of our traditional cuisine kinda smelly even our fruit is smelly like durians (which is a must eat when the season start). Got a friend who's from french try our fermented pork (wild boar meat, rice, tapioca leaves and left fermented). At first he's kinda hate it cause the smell but my mum said that as a guest he must try it and so he does and love it.

Great narration

I LOVED this video!!!

This was a quite well produced video of this small stinky fish 🐠. Eaten as it should be, with aquavit, though I also like the hard white flat bread. Both are good

Woooooo the shade, the shade of it all

As much as I'd want _Smell-O-Vision_ to be a thing, I'm glad it's not around for Surströmming vids.

Iki yo opo lo maem an wujud opo meneh iki lek nggilani, wow great love it♥️

idk if you noticed but chef in 6:26 shocked that girl will go for another bite

Now that's a treat!

Awww, that show host was so nice and polite. Good on ya.

First of all, surströmming is a food that comes from Norrland, the northern part of Sweden, where, historically, fresh food in winter was impossible to get. So when regular pickled herring went bad on them, they ate it anyway. You can find it in those cans that look like they're going to explode all over Sweden these days, but the majority of Swedes I met want no part of it. I was told that to open a can of it, you have to put the can under water in a bucket, because all that odoriferous, disgusting gas in the can, being under pressure, will cause some of the horribly smelly liquid in the can to squirt out of the small opening made when you pierce the can and the ejected contents, under pressure, will get on you and on your ceiling. Further, many of the Swedes in Stockholm I met told me that you have to knock back a good many shots of akvavit (aquavit in English, a Swedish hard liquor flavored with caraway seed and other ingredients) and get drunk enough to overcome your revulsion for the smell before eating it and one Swede who told me that believed that eating surströmming was an excuse for getting drunk on akvavit. Several of them also told me that you don't want to be talking face to face with someone who has eaten surströmming, because they will burp and the burp, directed at you, will smell horrible. Trust me on this, some Swedes eat surströmming, but a huge percentage of Swedes steer clear of it because it's gross and, in the modern era, decent food is not in short supply during the winter. By the way, no restaurant in greater Stockholm will serve it because the smell is so offensive it would gross out the other customers who are eating and I think the vast majority of restaurants in Sweden won't serve it for that reason.

You should try Finnish desert called mämmi and despite the look of it, it's quite delicious. It's made from rye flour and malted rye. It's tradiotionally mixed with sugar and whole milk to be complete delight.

It reminds me of some of the salt liquorices with ammonium chloride. My family has lutefisk (lye fish) at christmas, another preservation trick.

In Bangladesh they have something called "SHUTKI maach" which is another type of fermented and dried fish...super stinky if not prepared well.

I don't know if I would like it...but I will definitely try it 💜😊

Thank you for finally amkeing a video of how you eat it , with västerbottencheese and all of it , but my family just the crisper bread or polarbröd then soft flat bröd . but still awesome to see a real food video :D

മലയാളി.... 😅

The thing is, the fish looks so good!!! I wish I could find a can of fish preserved a different way, but was that big, with substantial skin, etc, like these look! Lol

The fly arrives for lunch at 7:19

In the Philippines, we have a similar one called Ginamos and it is super good with boiled plantain bananas, esp when it's spicy! :)

Nice video, loved the dig at BF for their BS. I know i wouldn't like this, but that's simply because i don't like fish or very salty foods.

thumbs up for the "boneheads from buzzfeed" remark.

I wish I had a Swedish friend that could eat surstromming with me.. I looooove trying new food. I wish I could travel the world just to try all kind of different food.

Am ready to try it out ....where can I find it in NAIROBI. It seems other KZfaq videos are misleading. This particular video gives surströmming a much better experience

Nice with rice or porridge.. fry it with onion til crispy ISH and the onions caramelized..also fresh chilli fried too. In Malaysia called ikan pekasam..or pickled fish..

Top Gear definitely brought me to this food.

''Who cut the cheese?'' In Sweden we say ''Who opened the surströmming?'' No we don't but we should

Surstromming magically delicious!

That's so interesting

I'm surprised how nice you presented this dish. Well done. You should make more movies like this

She's so respectful

i might have to try surstromming again, last time it was straight from the can

I don't understand why salt was scarce in Sweden. The Baltic Sea IS salt water. You can dip it out and let the water evaporate. Sounds like a good business to me.

I actually wouldn’t mind trying it. I don’t know if I can do the whole process of getting it ready bc I hate getting my hands dirty while preparing food, but if it was already made then it looks kinda good.

HA, that's so fun! Nice work invading the embassy for some fishy facts :D

You probably want to have a look at the finnish Mämma or Mämmi. It has an ... interesting aperance... (but it's actually really good)

the swedish ambassador for US is probably the most attractive grandma ive ever seen in my life

Thats good shit...where can i get some?

I love it

I really want to try this, iv heart it smells awful but tastes amazing, I love all fish and its the preparation of this thats always put me off.

Same like salted fresh fish put in in container stock in few months before ready to eats it is called in Philippines "bagoong"

Fermented lobsterbait yummy! Got a good recipe for pogies? ✌🏻️from gloucester mass.

Whomever Saw Karthik surya video and came here to watch the comments of this video like adikye 🤣🤣

Fermented foods are the best foods!

I thought saving food was 1) during summer when fresh food is plenty but goes bad fast 2) for the winter months when there isn’t much food around. To open and eat them in August seems too early?

Ive never had surstroming but im pretty sure its as good as paadek fish because alot of Scandinavian really like asian seafood dishes and paadek me personally I would like some surstroming fish sauce on the salty side ♡♡♡

Very interesting accent there, you have what sounds like a British variant of a European accent - never heard anything like it in my life.

My dear, you should try Beaver, if the animal is skinned properly it taste like a spicy beef, my husband and I prepare more then 200 lbs a year, it's delicious.

I love stinky food. I pour fish sauce on my pasta and add kimchi and pickled herring to pizza, so I’m eager to try this but can’t where I live. Id have to go to the beach lol

Can't beat the Hawaiian rotten fish which is a delicacy amongst the elders

this is making me hungry

I think you can cook it first insteada eating it as how it is right? That smell might be lifted a little after boil?

Tht actually.....looked pretty good in tht wrap

After this video i think i actually want to try it 😂

I wanna try this too from Philippines ❤❤❤❤

I have never tried this type of herring but I like picked herring

I would love it. Wonder if I can get it here in the states?

I don't know if you're still taking suggestions but can you please do a video on doogh, it's a loved Iranian yogurt soda but I've seen some "weird" food KZfaqrs try it and act disgusted, which it is definitely not.

Solyanka. It's Russian cuisine (also, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Georgian, etc). Have you ever eaten Solyanka? I know other cultures think that solyanka is kinda garbage soup. Like it contains some trashbin ingredients 😂 But I can honestly say (without actually being a huge lover of Russian cuisine) it is one of the most interesting and delicious soups in the world! I only know 3 soups which I love more than Solyanka: Thai Tom Yum/Tom Kha and Norwegian Fiskesuppe. But please if you're gonna cook it (barely you could buy one in the web or in markets), use one the most authentic recipes (the soup must contain capers and none of potato!). Thank you for the video and sorry for my bad English ☺️

I wanna try this stuff. I like funky salty things.

Oh the Shade 😆😆😆

Where can you get traditional Swedish tortillas?

Just wrap it up in tunnbröd with gräddfil, lök and mossad potatis and it really good.

This is vile, everyone involved unalived within 40 mins of filming. Strong cowie

dude that sounds fkin BOMB. they got surstromming in socal?

Surströmming is the reason Sweden has been able to stay neutral. The threat of opening 1000 tins of the product at the same time has kept Russia from invading since WWII. The exchange rate is 1 nuclear 50 kiloton weapon to 2,3 tins of Surströmming.
