Description

The recipe won't take much time. Forshmak, an excellent cold appetizer, is very simple and quick to prepare and inexpensive. Simply run herring fillet, a white bread roll or loaf, a green apple, and eggs through a meat grinder. Add soft butter, mix everything thoroughly, and the dish is ready. Nothing tastes better with boiled hot potatoes and a piece of fresh bread. Serve with greens and sauce.

    All the ingredients for forshmak can be whipped in a blender, chopped in a food processor, or passed through a meat grinder. The consistency and flavor of the appetizer turn out differently. I prefer the meat grinder. So, pass the fillet of salted herring and hard-boiled eggs through the meat grinder.
