Traditional Potato and Herring Salad Recipe"Kartoffel- und Heringsalat"This Potato and Herring Salad recipe comes from my Mom. She usually made it as one of her party buffet recipes. As well, she often made this traditional German food as a special treat for summer picnics.To differentiate this salad from potato salad, my mom would add slices of pickled red beets. The resulting pink-coloured herring salad became her trademark. Use pickled herring that's sold in jars. Drain well and cut the herring into smaller pieces. If onions are in the jars, chop these and add to the salad as well. If the pickled herring you've bought still has the back-bones in it, you'll need to remove this. Just cut along the back-bone and pull the flesh away from it. You'll find a different version of the herring salad minus the potatoes at Heringsalat. Potato and Herring SaladIngredients:
