Brauðterta – Icelandic style sandwich loaf: Shrimp

Garnish: egg, cucumber, shrimps.
Continuing from last week's post:

  • 4 layers of sandwich bread
  • 300 g mayonnaise
  • 200 g sour cream
  • 300 g Arctic shrimp
  • 1/2 red bell pepper
  • 6 hard-boiled eggs
  • Aromat or Accent (may be left out or you can substitute garlic powder)
  • I also like to use a teensy amount of freshly ground black pepper in shrimp fillings



Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream until smooth and well-blended. Thaw and drain the shrimps well. Finely chop the pepper, mash the eggs with a fork and mix everything together. Put the spread between the layers of bread. Smooth a thin layer of mayo-sour cream mixture evenly over the loaf and garnish, for example with large shrimps, egg slices and vegetables, e.g. bell peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes.
