Salted Herring with Guts (1 piece)
Whole salt-cured herring — the deep, old-school flavour.
EASTERN EUROPE · DELI CLASSIC · 1 PIECE
What it is
Whole herring salt-cured in the traditional way — guts in, skin on, sold by the fish. The "ungutted" cure produces a deeper, more savoury flavour than fillets-only versions, because the fish ripens with its own enzymes.
Fillet at home: cut behind the gills, slit along the belly, remove guts and head, peel skin from tail to head, lift the fillets off the bones. Cut into pieces, marinate briefly in oil with sliced onion, serve with boiled potatoes and a glass of something cold. The base of "herring under a fur coat" and a Baltic open sandwich.
