  • 1 two-ounce can of flat anchovy fillets, drained and finely chopped
  • ½ cup finely chopped onions
  • 1/3 cup capers, drained, washed, dried and chopped
  • ½ cup finely chopped pickled beets, canned or freshly made
  • ½ cup finely chopped parsley
  • 4 raw egg yolks

  • How To Cook:
    1. This dish should be served on individual plates and is called a Bird's Nest ("Fagelbo") or an Eye of the Sun ("Sologa") because the ingredients are arranged around a raw egg yolk.

    2. Place 1 egg cup, cookie cutter or small juice glass in the center of each of 4 salad plates to reserve a space for the egg yolks.

    3. On each plate make a border around the glass with a thin ring of chopped anchovies, then a ring of chopped onions, one of capers, one of chopped pickled beets and one of chopped fresh parsley.

    4. The plates may be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated. Before serving, remove the glass from each plate and replace it with a raw egg yolk.

    5. Each person then mixes his own ingredients at the table. This may be served as a first course, as part of a "Smorgasbord", or as a late-supper snack with beer.
