Wunderbar. Aka, Heringsalat, it's such a traditional German food that's so easy and fast to make. For our family, all that's needed are some boiled potatoes and dinner or lunch is ready. Yes, that quick!
This also makes a great German appetizer. Serve it with crackers or crusty
bread.

you have Herring and Potato Salad. A pretty pink-colored salad that was my Mutti's favorite salad to make for buffets. For the actual recipe, check it out here.
Here, I've served the salad with boiled potatoes and tomatoes. Sprinkle some chives over the top. Super quick. Super delicious!.
Here, I'm serving this as an appetizer. I didn't add too much cream, just enough to smooth out the flavor. Parsley sprinkled over the top and ready to serve.
Especially useful after a day at work and shopping and in need of something delicious and quick. First, put the potatoes on to boil.
Even faster, though, I'd do them in the microwave. Using new potatoes was best. While they were cooking, start the herring salad. Finished!
A super supper ready in almost no time at all.
