A Herring Salad recipe that kids love? My kids love pickles, cream and sweet and sour. This recipe has it all. Traditional German food that's so easy and fast, kids can make it.
First, I put potatoes on to boil. Even faster, though, I'd do them in the microwave. While they were cooking, the salad would be started and finished. Supper's ready!
Use pickled herring that you get in jars. Drain well, keeping the onions with the herring. Mix with the sour cream, add the pickles, and that's it.
This also makes a great appetizer, served with crackers or crusty bread.
Remember to always keep a jar of pickled herring in the fridge for those really busy days when you need a quick dinner idea or as part of your quick and easy appetizer recipes. Fast, easy, delicious, and very traditional, why not try it for supper tonight!
