Toast Skagen offers a luxurious blend of creamy richness, fresh seafood, and subtle acidity.

Shrimp Quality
Use fresh, sustainably sourced shrimp. Small, sweet shrimp are ideal. Avoid overcooked or rubbery shrimp.
Mayonnaise Matters
Opt for a high-quality mayonnaise, or consider making your own for a richer flavor. The mayonnaise is a key component of the dish.
Lemon Zest Addition
Adding a tiny amount of lemon zest to the shrimp mix will elevate the flavor of the dish
Bread Choice
Brioche or white bread is traditionally used, toasted to a golden brown. Sourdough can also work well, but its tanginess should complement the other flavors.
Dill Freshness
Fresh dill is essential. Avoid using dried dill, as it lacks the vibrant aroma and flavor of fresh dill.
