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...
Yes, if you can enjoy pickled herring you could like this too, I think, but if you can´t even eat that I guess it´s better not to try it. You should try it with people who know how to eat it and the experience can be really nice.
I never saw the "Buzzfeed" video itself, or anything from buzzfeed - but what i saw is really douche-y and disrespectful ...and somehow retarded. That video here even tried to be nice on them. Just saying.
I guess the entire point of the video was that actual pros open the can under water and outside, to avoid most contact with the gasses that are a byproduct of this ancient "we'll starve to death if we don't come up with something"-tier preservation method. Ideally, the fish is consumed as part of a dish, where it ideally is no more or less offensive than blue molded cheese. Supposedly.
@dabmotha people in the "civilized" USA still eat chitlins you know slave food , yea like that's any better yum let's eat the shit tube of a pig, mmm oh yea that's a whole lot better.
you are claming you are more civilized that one of the most civilized countries in the world? We enjoy the food it tastes great. But if you think you are better than us sure, go look at a chart of countries and Sweden will make the top 10 in most things.
well, even though this shittalk about civilized food is unnecessary here, i kinda agree it's strange people still eat this thing i mean what's the point, the whole preparation to make it edible, is about getting tiny bits of this fish basically bathing in lots of other ingredients (chives, sour cream, potatoes, bread, onions, everything with strong enought flavor to cover up the taste of this fish) it's like putting a poop into a bread with tons of spices, onions, sour cream etc just to make it edible
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.
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.
platez81 being a Brit, now gonna be swede in two years lol (fuck brexit!). When I first tried it, I was like fainting due to the scent, tbh if you have any experience being in some market in Asian country, you won’t find it that bad, it’s just a heavy acidic smell which I can correlate as a spicy scent in some Asian food market. The taste is a bit strong tbh and since I tried it several times as a joke with my swede friends, I am used to it. It’s like salmiakki or hagges (though this one is horrible in every case, even Scots hate it lol!), you need to acquire it to really understand it
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.
I really like the honesty here, just because our ancestors who could not get anything to eat, ate something out of hunger does not mean we should glorify it and take it as part of our culture. Here in saudi arabia they ate locusts since it was a desert and at times you had a choice between eating sand or locusts, but that doesn mean we do it nowadays
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.
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".
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 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.
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.
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.
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
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
Telling that I found this on page 3 when I used keywords 'how is Surstromming made'. And amazingly, the previous pages were full of *%#*&@ (I'm trying to be polite) with millions of views racked up. Millions of views to watch people retching. What a society we live in. You've earned a new subscriber.
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.
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.
They make surströmming fillets nowadays, so you don't have to gut the fish on your plate. Traditionally, they would only cut the head of the fish before throwing them in the brine. (or sometimes, the whole fish) The baltic herring, or strömming, is a small fish, but they gather in giant schoals. This meant that a few times a year you might catch a redicilous amount of herring on a single catch, litterary thousands of them. There are numerous historical occations, where the strömming were so plentiful that people where scooping them out of the water with buckets. For people in the old times, that fish is what's keeping you alive through the winter, wheter you got a big catch or a small one. If there is no time to gut all the herrings, they would go in the salt barrels whole. If there wasn't enough salt, well the herrings may turn in to surströmming.
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
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..
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
Am ready to try it out ....where can I find it in NAIROBI. It seems other UA-cam videos are misleading. This particular video gives surströmming a much better experience
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 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?
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 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.
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 ♡♡♡
You can absolutely eat surströmming inside. I do it 2-3 times a year. Just be careful not to spill and open the windows a few hours after and throw away the garbage asap. Also, you should eat last years fish. It is much tastier.
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 UA-camrs try it and act disgusted, which it is definitely not.
I don't know if there are any cool chemical reactions going on but Buchada de Bode is a pretty weird dish we eat here in Brazil, it's pretty much goat organs. I did not personally eat it yet, but my uncle loves it.

if your gonna experience the culture, at least have the courtesy to do it right
Exactly
Open a can and see if you still say that.....

Nothings common about rotten fish.
@@DrGibs347 Good that it's not rotten then, did you watch the video?
And this is how you eat surströmming. Glad they dissed the silly viral videos that 'demonstrate that fermented fish is disgusting'.

@dabmotha "Civilized". Yeah right...
you are claming you are more civilized that one of the most civilized countries in the world? We enjoy the food it tastes great. But if you think you are better than us sure, go look at a chart of countries and Sweden will make the top 10 in most things.
@dabmotha cause you can decide that.. sure go back into your hole.
well, even though this shittalk about civilized food is unnecessary here, i kinda agree it's strange people still eat this thing
i mean what's the point, the whole preparation to make it edible, is about getting tiny bits of this fish basically bathing in lots of other ingredients (chives, sour cream, potatoes, bread, onions, everything with strong enought flavor to cover up the taste of this fish)
it's like putting a poop into a bread with tons of spices, onions, sour cream etc just to make it edible
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.
Snails are good with garlic butter, French style.
Kimchi and pachranga are a couple of those. Your first bite of pachranga will literally make your saliva glands cramp.

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.

When I first tried it, I was like fainting due to the scent, tbh if you have any experience being in some market in Asian country, you won’t find it that bad, it’s just a heavy acidic smell which I can correlate as a spicy scent in some Asian food market.

It’s like salmiakki or hagges (though this one is horrible in every case, even Scots hate it lol!), you need to acquire it to really understand it
yeah that's the right way to eat strong foods
Yes, nobody normal would eat it just out of a can...it´s like eating mayonaise or butter without anything else which is also disgusting.
Thank You for making a proper video about Surströmming.
This video earned you a new subscriber. No over dramatic millenial bullshit. No bonheads from buzzfeed as you said. So refreshing! Thank you.
This is the fanciest video about Surströming i've seen.
Why thank you. Being able to shoot at the Embassy super helped with that.

Yeah, surströmming is definitely a northern thing. I wouldn't trust stockholmers with it any more than i would those buzzfeed boneheads
I have never tried Surstromming, but I have tried Aquavit. I think I might like the fish better than the overpowering taste of caraway seeds.

Woooooo the shade, the shade of it all
Top Gear definitely brought me to this food.
Fermented foods are the best foods!
My favourite is bread.
Mine is beer.
@ weehawk Agree. Because part of the digestion was done outside your stomach already. It reduces your stomach's burden.
Both beer and bread are fermented.

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

Here in the u.k, we have Marmite.
Either you like it, or not...
Tht actually.....looked pretty good in tht wrap
Now that's a treat!
Potatoes, creme fraiche, chives, butter and onions all wrapped in the flatbread all serve one purpose: to mask the flavor of the stinky fish itself.
Thank you so much for posting this. I knew this wouldn't taste as bad as those crazy BuzzFeed people let us to believe.
Great narration
I gotta say I like the swedish sense of humor lol
An excellent and informative video.
Maybe very old and ripe smelly bavarian Backstaakees (brick cheese or "Limburger") is food that comes a little close to Surströmming. 🤔
She said the tradition dates back 9,000 years. The fish smells like it’s 9,000 years old!
try fermented shrimp from vietnam, you will remember for life
You can absolutely eat surströmming inside. I do it 2-3 times a year. Just be careful not to spill and open the windows a few hours after and throw away the garbage asap. Also, you should eat last years fish. It is much tastier.
sounds awful
Surstromming magically delicious!
dude that sounds fkin BOMB. they got surstromming in socal?
I wanna try this stuff. I like funky salty things.
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 UA-camrs try it and act disgusted, which it is definitely not.

I don't know if there are any cool chemical reactions going on but Buchada de Bode is a pretty weird dish we eat here in Brazil, it's pretty much goat organs. I did not personally eat it yet, but my uncle loves it.
