Are Swollen Cans Safe?

Swollen cans of surströmming are a common sight due to the ongoing fermentation process. This swelling is natural and safe as long as the can has not been tampered with or damaged. The gases produced by fermentation cause the can to expand, which is a good sign that the product is properly fermented and ready to be enjoyed. However, if there are signs of rust or leakage, it’s best to avoid opening the can, as these could indicate spoilage beyond normal fermentation.

Baltic Sea Herring

The herring used to make surströmming comes from the Baltic Sea and has a long tradition in Swedish cuisine. This species is smaller and milder than ocean herring, making it ideal for fermentation.
