I unfortunately was alone to eat this dish from the gods, probably scandinavian as Garrison Keilor would propose. This is a dish sure to win friends, enemies and the whole neighbourhood (that's how we write this word in Canada, a relic from our British past!!!). Leftover popovers can be filled with more smoked salmon in a lunch bag. I spread the popovers on a bed of endives and had a glass of Akvaavit with it.
