Herring oil
Ingredients:
- 200 g light salted herring fillet;
- 100 g of butter with a fat content of 82.5% (should be of good quality).
In order to save time on cooking dishes from herring, you can take not a whole fish, but pieces. In this case, it should not be in brine, but in oil, which must be completely drained.
Remove the butter from the refrigerator and leave for 40 minutes to soften. Gently pull large bones out of the herring fillet and double-scroll it in a meat grinder or grind it in a blender to make a homogeneous minced fish.
Combine both ingredients in one bowl and rub thoroughly with a fork. Chopped greens, pickles, green or white onions, capelin caviar, etc., can be added to the finished mass if desired.
