The first thing I remember about this fish spread is that when I made it for the first time, I added too much smoked fish, and it turned out so salty that I could barely 'fix' it with all the butter...
The first time I made this combination, I messed up everything that could go wrong. I used too much oil, cut the clementines rather clumsily, and the shrimp turned out a bit too salty. Even so,...
I've made this oven-baked carp with onions and leeks so many times that I’ve come to believe I can cook it with my eyes closed. The first time, I must admit, I messed up the frying – I used too...
