Recipe for toasted rye bread with lumpfish roe and avocado
I LOVE lumpfish roe! The season is in full swing right now, so I am currently eating plenty of this delightful roe. For instance, we have also had rösti with lumpfish roe at home.
Toasted rye bread with lumpfish roe is a crispy and truly delicate “bite,” which is perfect as an appetizer or starter for guests. The avocado adds a good richness to the dish, giving it a bit more depth.
