Herring Ice Cream
Description
A delicious appetizer for any gathering. Herring ice cream is a tasty and very original dish. In consistency, it really does resemble ice cream. Such an appetizer will leave no one indifferent. In Norway, it is served with pickled onion, but that is a matter of taste. I did not pickle the onion, since it is not very bitter anyway, and when pickled, the onion loses its red color under the action of vinegar and becomes dull. This spoils the appearance of the dish. It can be served warm or chilled.
