Pickled Herring

Pickled Herring

Everyday

Pickled herring is a traditional preserved fish prepared by brining and marinating raw herring in a vinegar-based solution with spices like onions, dill, or mustard. A staple in Nordic and Baltic cuisines, this preparation method yields tender, silky fillets with a balanced sweet-sour flavor while retaining the fish’s high omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D content. Though nutritionally rich, its sodium levels are elevated due to preservation, and it’s typically served chilled as part of appetizer platters or atop dark rye bread.
