How to make
Wash, dry, clean and fillet the two herrings. Cut them into 1-2 cm thick pieces.
Cut the onion into crescents and break the bay leaves.
To prepare the marinade, mix the water, fat, vinegar, sugar and black pepper.
Start arranging in a jar a layer of herring, a layer of onion and a bay leaf, and so on. Pour the marinade on top and refrigerate for 6-10 hours to marinate the fish.
If the fish is completely covered with the marinade, you can store it for 10 days.
The pickled herring is ready.
