Surströmming (”soured (Baltic) herring”) is a northern Swedish delicacy consisting of fermented Baltic herring. Surströmming is sold in cans, which when opened release a strong smell. Because of the smell, the dish is often eaten outdoors. However, opening the can under water or inside a plastic bag, somewhat lessens the smell, as well as prevents the person opening it from being soaked in brine, as the fermentation often builds up a considerable pressure inside the can.

Trond and Roald took over Cascina Desderi; 11. Juli 2003. Here they make they own wine: Barbera d`Asti Superiore black/red. They also have apartments for rent.
The vineyard apartment hotel “Cascina Desderi” has a hilltop location on a “collina” in the state of Piedmont in the north-western corner of Italy. The Po Plain is sloping ever so slightly from the spring green rice fields around Alessandria, through the rolling hills of Monferrato - ending in the French Alps.
The name Piedmont – in Italian Piemonte – derives from the words foot and mountain. Thus this area is located at the foot of the mountain ridge separating Italy from France.
