Sleď, Anyone?
On the label: Filety ze sleďů v koprové omáčce
I didn't know what this was when I got it. Thank goodness sleď turned out to be herring! This variation on "fish salad" — one variety of the mayo-salad, a lovely central European (and, of course Midwestern) speciality — turned out to be herring fillets in dill sauce. I was afraid it would be smelt, even though I couldn't really imagine "smelt salad."
Dobrou chuť!

A graduate student in music and anthropology writing a dissertation about music in Moravia, the eastern third of the Czech Republic. At some point, the Czech Republic's "second city" (that would be Brno) captured my attention, and I've since been blogging about events, arts, music, and other stuff—basically whatever interests me in and around the cityscape. I'm not living in Brno now, but I keep up with the cultural pulse from afar as best I can.

If it was smelt, I bet it would have, ahem, smelt bad when you opened it.
