Description

Another classic salad with a modern twist. Individual rolls of herring under a fur coat are more convenient than the traditional layered presentation on a platter. Firstly, they are easier to place on a plate, and secondly, there’s less chance of the entire tablecloth being stained with red beet spots. If you are celebrating New Year with a group of friends potluck-style, where everyone brings their own dish, then the roll in a container is much easier to transport than herring on a platter.

Finely chop the onion.
