Scandinavian Salads

Cucumber salads are among the most popular Scandinavian salads, but the variety of salad combinations is quite high and often differs from one region to another. When thinking about Swedish or Norwegian salads we shouldn’t stop at just one recipe, since there are hundreds of other delicious salad combinations. Most Scandinavian salads combine sugar, water, vinegar, salt and pepper with tossed plant slices. Cucumbers and onion slices are frequently used in salads that accompany meat meals. When cooking such a salad make sure to cover the bowl and refrigerate for several hours. When serving salads, Swedes and Danes often garnish them with parsley. Although fresh vegetables are most popular when it comes to preparing a Scandinavian salad, you can also prepare a salad out of canned plants.
