New catch herring season started the other day and I finally ate them at the market today. I go to the same fishmonger for herrings every week. I've tried them all but this fishmonger has the best herrings year round and the quality remains consistent.
I only eat herrings where they are cleaned on the spot
A full tray of cleaned herrings. She's fast and cleans a lot of herrings a day, especially in the first few weeks of the season.
Butter from the sea. New herrings should look like this. Pale with pink flesh. And they glisten.
A short clip of the cleaning process I made a couple of years ago. Same stall, same cleaner. Has info texts so do watch in full screen mode.
