Herring salad recipe
information
Any salt herring is suitable for this salad. Pickled rollmops in jars, or herrings canned in wine are available from delicatessens and good supermarkets.
Buy a ready-cooked beetroot from the greengrocer, to cut down on preparation time.
Make sure the ingredients are cut into small dice for this salad—the flavours will mingle more easily.
Salt herring fillets have a strong, distinctive flavour, and you may prefer not to mix them into the salad. Combine the other diced ingredients as in stages 1 and 2, then roll the drained fillets up tightly and arrange around the dish, as in the picture.
