If your herring is not already filleted, carefully slice it into bite-sized pieces, removing the backbone and any stray bones. Traditionally, the herring is eaten by holding the tail and lowering it into the mouth, but cutting into pieces is common for serving.
💡 Conseils de pro: Ensure all bones are removed for a pleasant eating experience. - 2
Finely chop the raw onion. The finer the chop, the more evenly the flavor will distribute.

Finely chop a small pickled gherkin, if using. This adds a pleasant tanginess that complements the herring.
