Description

A simple dish to prepare. Most often, we make traditional herring "under a fur coat" in various versions, or quickly prepare herring with onions. These salads have become boring, haven't they? You want something new and a bit unusual. I suggest you try this easy herring salad recipe. I once tried this salad in a rather decent café and really enjoyed it. At home, I managed to recreate its taste and composition, and since then I make it quite often, especially in winter. Here's how to do it. Serve chilled.

    Boil the eggs, peel, and chop not too finely.

    Peel the onion and slice it into rings or half-rings. If you don't like bitter onion in salad, pour boiling water over the sliced onion and let it sit for 1-2 minutes.

    Cut the herring fillet into pieces.
