Butter-fried dab served with crisp bakskuld (Danish salted, dried and smoked dab), soft sweet onions and white wine sauce.
This dish is a sure winner – and we can say that with 100% certainty, because Jes actually beat James Price on the Danish TV cooking show Price Inviterer in 2015 with exactly this dish, together with our æbleskiver (Danish pancake balls) with bakskuld, beetroot jam and vinegar powder.
Price Inviterer ran a series of programmes in which a food-loving viewer was invited in to compete against them in the kitchen, and Jes was one of the lucky ones who got to take on James.
The result was this wonderful dish, which we really ought to call Jes’s signature dish – it tastes absolutely incredible.
The dab can be swapped for another white fish depending on the season – but fried bakskuld, soft sweet onions and white wine sauce are non-negotiable.
