Salted Herring
Salted Herring is a preserved fish product commonly used in Northern and Eastern European cuisines as an appetizer, on open sandwiches, or in salads; it is known for its strong savory flavor and long shelf life. Nutritionally it is a concentrated source of high-quality protein, providing about 20g of protein per 100g, and is also rich in vitamin B12, selenium and omega-3 fatty acids. While it supplies heart-healthy long-chain omega-3s and excellent micronutrients, Salted Herring is traditionally high in salt, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation or swapped for lower-sodium preparations when watching sodium intake.
