This smorrebrod is a great way to use up leftover herring. It's also a great way to introduce kids to new flavors.

This smorrebrod was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less mustard herring next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the smorrebrod turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of bread. I think a sourdough bread would be a better choice.

The mustard herring was a bit too strong for my taste, but the rest of the smorrebrod was great.
