Smørbrød is a traditional Scandinavian open-faced sandwich that originated in Denmark. The name directly translates to "butter and bread", but the dish often includes a variety of other ingredients. Typically, it consists of a piece of buttered rye bread topped with cold cuts, pieces of meat or fish, cheese, or spreads. It is commonly served as a quick lunch or dinner, and its combinations of toppings can range from simple to elaborate gourmet versions.
