Herring under a fur coat with gelatin
Description
1. Start by boiling carrots, beets, and potatoes after thoroughly washing them. 2. Carefully remove the skin from the herring and take out all the bones. 3. Pay special attention to the mold you'll use for assembling the salad. This recipe for herring under a fur coat with gelatin is great because you can shape the dish into various forms. 4. Let the cooked vegetables cool, peel them, and grate (or cut into small cubes if desired). 5. The mold will be inverted before serving (you can cover the bottom with plastic wrap for convenience), so layers should be assembled in reverse order. Place the beets at the bottom. 6. Dissolve the gelatin in a small amount of water and mix it with mayonnaise. Let it sit for a few minutes, then spread it well over the beets. 7. Next, add the carrots, followed by another layer of mayonnaise and a pinch of salt. 8. Peel the onion and cut it into small cubes. 9. Place the onion on top, then add the chopped fish. Spread another layer of mayonnaise over it. 10. Finally, add the potatoes, season them well with salt, and generously cover with mayonnaise. 11. Now the herring under a fur coat with gelatin needs to set and firm up. Place the mold in the refrigerator for at least a couple of hours (preferably overnight). Before serving, invert the mold onto a serving plate. You can garnish with fresh herbs or boiled eggs, for example.
