This recipe was made by my dad for both Christmas and Midsummer! It has a nice tang and firm herring fillets. It's not particularly difficult or labor-intensive to make, but it does require about a week's advance preparation—3 days in the freezer and 3 days to balance and develop flavor. It will keep for about a week, if it lasts that long...

Start by freezing the herring fillets for about 3 days to eliminate any parasites in the fish. Thaw slowly in the refrigerator on the last day.

Steps 2
20 Mins
Store-bought herring fillets are usually both cleaned and deboned, but if they are not, start by cleaning the fish. Small bones are okay as they will dissolve in the vinegar brine. Remove the skin with your thumb (starting from the front and working backward) or alternatively cut off the skin with a filleting knife. Rinse the fillets in several changes of cold water and allow most of the water to drain off.

Steps 4

Let the herring sit in the brine for 4-6 hours; the duration will determine the sourness of the finished dish.
Steps 5
20 Mins
SAUCE
Drain the pickling liquid and let the fillets drain off on, for example, a tilted cutting board in the sink or in a sieve. They only need to be drained, not rinsed.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, crushed/ground white pepper, and pressed/crushed/finely chopped garlic. Finish by mixing in chopped dill and chives.
Take out a suitably large jar and start with a layer of sauce, then alternate layers of herring fillets with sauce, and finish with a layer of sauce covering the top. Press down the mixture to expel any air.
Seal with a lid or plastic wrap.
Let it stand cool (in the refrigerator) for 2-3 days to allow the flavors to balance.
