Step 1:

Bone the herring and cut it into pieces.
Step 2:

Boil the potatoes in their skins, cool them, peel them, and cut them into cubes.
Step 3:

Peel the onion, dice it, scald it with boiling water (to take out the bitterness and strong smell), and rinse it under cold water.
Step 4:

Hard-boil the eggs and peel them. Separate the whites from the yolks. Set the yolks aside and chop the whites.
Step 5:

Peel and core the apple. Cut it into small cubes and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
Step 6:

Make the dressing. Mash the yolks. Add the cream (or sour cream), mustard, black pepper, sugar, and lemon juice. If the herring is lightly salted, salt the dressing to taste.
Step 7:

Mix everything well.
Step 8:

In a large bowl, combine all the salad ingredients, add the dressing, and toss gently. Let it rest for 30 minutes and serve sprinkled with chopped fresh dill.
