Menu ideas – Summer 2025
The season sets the direction. Here are some current combinations for your birthday – as full-size smørrebrød or miniature bites:
- Æg x trøffel: Organic eggs and blanched cauliflower in light Jerusalem artichoke mayo with truffle. Toasted rye, chives, and cress for freshness.
- Hønsemor: Homemade organic chicken salad with roasted celeriac and mushrooms, topped with crispy bacon and cress. 100% organic.
- Rejemad: Hand-peeled Greenlandic shrimp in light potato mayo with cabbage and lovage. Fresh dill on top.
- Ingrid in Summer: Crushed organic Danish Ingrid peas with olive oil, chimichurri, and roasted spring onions.
- Laksilicious: Warm-smoked salmon rillette from Centralrøgeriet with summer cabbage in miso, ponzu, and sesame. Finished with coriander.
- One Lucky Potato: New potatoes on plant-based chive mayo, topped with crispy onions and cress. 100% organic.
We recommend a mix of green, fish, and classic varieties – a combination that works for both afternoon and evening guests.
Rørt Bites – for a standing celebration
For receptions, speeches, and toasts, our “Rørt Bites” are ideal: miniature versions of our smørrebrød served in homemade rye buns. Easy to serve on trays, no cutlery needed, and they hold beautifully – even when the party moves from living room to balcony.
We help you create a balanced mix with creamy, crispy, and tangy elements in rotation. You can also combine bites with full smørrebrød for a more filling experience.
