Finnish – Layered Midsummer Herring, This recipe is posted here for play in ZWT9 – Scandinavia This recipe is from website: freshfromfinland com This delicious herring recipe is simple to make, and works especially well when served with a side of new crop potatoes Please note: Chill time is noted in cook time , My favorite way of making herring is the way Mother did (recipe posted on food com), but this one caught my eye, as I love dill And this is definitely an excellent recipe I never liked the commercial sour cream herrings, this is nothing like those used salt herring, which I can conveniently buy at several places in my area I soaked it about 24 hours to remove some of the salt No chives at the market, and I did not want to use the garlic chives in my garden for this, so used the green tops of scallions, finely chopped, which worked well For some reason I have no mustard at home, so used some horseradish cream, and that blended in well I simply forgot about the lemon juice, and used only about 1 tsp of sugar The sauce was very tasty I also just mixed everything together instead of layering, so used a ceramic dish I did sprinkle with additional chopped dill While herring with boiled potatoes is very customary for us, too, I ate this with good Lithuanian rye bread, and it is delicious , Made for the FYC Tag Game – I made this as written except that I did not serve it w/potatoes as suggested I served it the way we eat it here atop buttered toast It was so good that I was actually purring as I ate my brunch today I did have a moment of confusion about the mustard ingredient I couldn’t tell if you wanted a table mustard, sweet mustard, Dijon mustard or other grainy brown mustard, etc I finally opted to use 1/2 T sweet mustard & 1/2 T Dijon mustard Loved this BK Thx for sharing it w/us
