  • Hard-boil the eggs, peel them, and put them through a meat grinder. Put the herring fillet through the meat grinder too. Wash the apple, cut it into pieces, and remove the core. Put it through the meat grinder. Peel and grind the onion the same way. Dampen a piece of the loaf with cold water, squeeze it out well, and grind it (using a meat grinder or blender). Combine all the ingredients in one bowl, add the softened butter and lemon juice. Mix thoroughly and transfer to a favorite salad bowl. Garnish the forshmak with fresh herbs and serve. Enjoy!
