Instructions

  1. First cut the herring into small pieces, as well as the cucumber, tomatoes and the apple. Dice the onion as well, but finer.
  2. Put everything together in a bowl and mix. Add the juice of a small half lemon, a little peel and the linseed oil and half a teaspoon of sugar. Do not be frugal with the pepper mill. Finally, finely chop leaf parsley and stir in as well. There should be some liquid at the bottom of the bowl. If it is not enough, add some of the cucumber water. If you take herring from a package, use the brew with it.
  3. Let everything stand in the refrigerator for a good 24 hours or at least overnight and stir every now and then when you are at the refrigerator anyway.
  4. Pumpernickel or black bread with butter or jacket potatoes and quark go best with this!

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
