Danish Rollmops

"There are so many variations and recipes for Pickled herring, salted herring etc. This recipe has been an old standby for my Mum and I like it. However I usually buy the tinned wine cured whole filets for special occasions they are super. Serve the herrings with fresh chopped onions and perhaps some capers"

  1. Wow - what a find! All of my family love pickled fish, soused herrings, rollmops - call them what you like, and these were remarkably easy to make! I cheated - I was able to buy herrings from the fishmonger already cleaned, boned and in fillets! This then made this classic dish so much easier to make. I made 6 rollmops from 6 fillets - 3 whole fish, just enough for the two of us. The marinade is so authentic and the texture is 100% better than shop-bought bottled rollmops, as they are still firm and not too soft. I minced my onions quite finely and served these as a starter with baby gherkins, silverskin onions and brown bread and butter. A fabulous recipe which is a keeper - next time my dad is over in France, I will impress him with my rollmop skills! Thanks Bergy! Made for an International Christmas in the Photos Forum. FT:-)
     
  2. This was the first time I actually made the Rollmops myself rather than buying them and it worked great. I had 'bismarck herring' fillets and they worked fine. I cut the onion into rings rather than cutting them finely as I like them quite chunky and alo added a slice of pickled gurken to each roll. I made them in the evening, allowed them to cool and refrigerated them overnight. Thanks for sharing!

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine. I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help. My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods. I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England! In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
