- Experiment with different types of pickled vegetables, such as pickled radishes or cucumbers, for added flavor and texture.

- Add a squeeze of lemon juice over the dish for a refreshing citrus twist.
- Feel free to customize the toppings based on your preferences. Nordic cuisine encourages creativity and the use of local, seasonal ingredients.
Serving advice
Serve the Nordic Ranch-Style Eggs immediately while the tortillas are still warm and the eggs are perfectly runny. This dish is best enjoyed for breakfast or brunch, accompanied by a cup of freshly brewed coffee or a glass of cold-pressed juice.
