Matjeshering - Germany traditional dish

🧂 Ingredienti

  • 8 Matjes herring fillets(Look for high-quality, brined young herring fillets. They should be plump and have a mild, slightly salty flavor.)
  • 2 medium Yellow onions(Thinly sliced into rings. Red onion can be used for a milder flavor and color contrast.)
  • 200 ml Sour cream(Full-fat sour cream will provide the richest flavor and texture.)
  • 2 Apples(Tart or semi-tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best. Peeled, cored, and finely diced.)
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh dill(Finely chopped, for garnish and flavor.)
  • to taste Salt(Use sparingly, as the herring is already brined.)
  • to taste Black pepper(Freshly ground.)
  • for serving Boiled new potatoes(Warm or chilled, tossed with butter and parsley if desired.)
