Roll Mops/Pickled Herring

[getbent]

So after the Fisherman Helping Kids With Cancer herring sale...I ended up with 40lbs of super fresh herring, I decided to take some and pickle it.

I bagged some bait

Cleaned some up

Through them into a mild salt/sugar brine for 72 hours

Freshened em for 20 minutes while I prepped the pickling brine (boiled) and sliced the homemade dills

Then filleted the little buggers

Rolled em up and into the jars with sweet onions and the brine...all the while having some great Spring Fever pickled salmon...

I love Roll Mops! First time I ever seen someone make their own! Very cool.

Not much of a herring person but I would be willing to try those. Look great.
