Hi Don,

Take a look at my recent posting about making pickled herrings: http://www.taikinapoika.com/2006/12/17/glass-master’s-herring-pickled-herring-with-spices/

Albeit I used pre-canned herrings, you can very well use fresh ones as the pickling liquid is suitable for fresh herrings also.

All of the recipes I find on line are the more Americanized versions of pickled herring, which is not nearly as tasty as the wonderful kinds you can buy in every grocery store in Finland. I know that the process is not difficult, but I think it's all in knowing the correct proportions of vinegar to sugar, as well as thy type of vinegar and the spices used. I would greatly appreciate any help you might have in bringing a bit if Finland into my kitchen.

Every xmas mom makes a huge batch of rosolli (herring salad with beets, onion, pickles, apple, carrots and whipped cream), and I almost vomit when I see the salted, whole herring fillets. I couldn't imagine a xmas meal without the rosolli however, and the finished product is super, super good. Just to reassure the other, unprejudiced readers: Abba marinated herrings are super good, 100% boneless bite-sized pieces, and can be eaten straight from the jar! BTW, I got your point, and added the missing 'second' =) Pille – I hear you loud and clear – herring fillets that need cleaning are totally gross and disgusting!
