Canape “Herring on a Fur Coat” Instructions

  1. Boil the beets on medium-high heat for about 20 minutes, then add the potatoes and carrots. Continue boiling until the potatoes and carrots are tender (about 20-30 minutes) and the beets are completely tender (about 40-60 minutes total). Remove the vegetables, cool, and peel.
  2. Grate the peeled vegetables on a medium grater into separate bowls. Add mayonnaise and black pepper to each bowl and stir.
  3. Cut the rye bread into 2 cm x 2 cm squares. Remove the skin and bones from the herring, then cut the fillets into slices slightly smaller than the bread pieces.
  4. Finely chop the green onion. On each bread square, layer the potato, carrot, and beet mixtures, top with a herring slice, and sprinkle with chopped green onion.
  5. Serve to the table.
