Cooking method
Prepare the ingredients: salted herring, carrots, melted cheese, butter. Carrots are washed and boiled in a uniform until half-cooked, it should not fall apart and turn into mashed potatoes. This is important because it is carrots that give the snack a feeling of grain, which, in turn, makes it taste like real caviar. We clean the herring, remove the skin, gut it, if it is not gutted, remove the bones. If there is caviar in the herring, then it can be added to the ingredients. Herring pulp is passed through a meat grinder, it is better to do it a couple of times. But a blender is unlikely to work in this case, the snack should be coarse in consistency, the blender will turn the mass into a homogeneous puree, which we do not need. After the herring, we send butter and processed cheese to the meat grinder. Processed cheese can be used by ordinary weight or take processed cheeses, only the product should be with a neutral taste, without various additives, so as not to drown out the taste of the main ingredients, an orbit type cheese is suitable. Butter and processed cheese should be cooled in the freezer beforehand, so that when they are twisted in a meat grinder, they do not smear on its walls, but go out into a bowl with herring completely. The last one is sent to the carrot grinder so that it cleans the meat grinder body from the remnants of melted cheese and butter. Thoroughly mix the ingredients passed through the meat grinder in a bowl, you can add salt to taste. But in principle, it seems there is no such need, salted herring and cheese contain enough salt. We put the container with the spread in the refrigerator, covered with a lid or cling film on top, for half an hour to cool. The appetizer is ready. We serve it to the table as an independent dish or spread on sandwiches. Fresh greens will perfectly complement sandwiches with herring caviar, bread will suit any: black, white or loaf.
Bon appetit!
