What it is
Forshmak is one of the most beloved spreads in the Odessa culinary tradition — a finely chopped herring mixture seasoned with onion, apple, and spices. The name comes from the German Vorschmack (a taste before the main course), and in Odessa it became a cornerstone of the Jewish table, served spread thickly on dark rye or Borodinsky bread.
IRBE's Odessa Style version captures that tradition in a ready-to-eat format: smooth yet textured, properly seasoned, and made with Atlantic herring as the primary ingredient. No cooking required — open, spread, and serve.
