    Can this really be classed as cooking?

    I agree with kebabthief. This is not an inspiring "recipe". Come on GoodFood, you can do much better than this!

    I think it's a wonderful inspiration for recreating a special cuisine at home. Thank you, Good Food!

    I have my own version. Get some rye bread (or other bread if you prefer). Go to the fridge and take out anything that still looks edible. Cut things decoratively add a bit of dressing (if you wish) and arrange on a plate. Is this a recipe?

    Whilst I agree that this is not strictly speaking a recipe, more "construction cooking", it is useful inspiration for those of us devoid of imagination at the end of a long day (particulary as I cook for a living too!). I particularly liked the fact that, whilst it may not strictly speaking be Scandinavian, it uses fresh and light ingredients. We enjoyed it as it made a nice change from bread, cheese and cold meats.
