Do you know your shark from your seal? WIN STUFF

We have a lot of amazing dishes in the Nordic countries.  Fresh, wonderful and healthy - and super tasty.

We also have a few dubious ones - national dishes and dishes from more remote areas and dishes you'd not expect to be in the repetoire of a Northern country.  You may laugh at some of them, but these dishes are steeped in our history and deserve a mention.  Albeit not always a taste unless you can stomach it, in some cases...

Can you match these pictures up with the right dish and country?

Send your answer by e-mail to iloveherring@scandikitchen.co.uk before Monday 16th Jan at noon - the first correct entry picked at random will win lunch for two at Scandinavian Kitchen.  Woo hoo.
