Herring Canapés on Rye Bread
Your guests will love these! Simple, quick, and a little different. You can swap the tomato paste for fresh tomato if you like — not everyone enjoys the taste of herring with tomato, which is a bit unusual, so tomato paste is used more often in the recipe. I make these snack sandwiches with tomato.

Cooking method
- How do you make sandwiches — quick ones that are tasty and filling, without a lot of fuss? It's actually very, very simple. I clean and gut the herring and remove the fillets. I cream the butter together with the tomato paste in a wooden mortar. This makes a wonderful tomato butter that on its own can be the base for all sorts of festive and everyday sandwiches. I hard-boil the eggs, and once they've cooled under cold running water, I slice them into medium-thick rounds. I finely chop the onion and cut the herring fillet into pieces about a third the size of a bread slice. Once everything is ready, I get straight to the best part — building beautiful little sandwiches. I spread the tomato butter on the bread. In the middle I set an egg round so the yolk shows on top. On the left I sprinkle very finely chopped onion, and on the right I place a piece of herring fillet. I arrange the sandwiches on a large platter and chill them for about twenty minutes before serving. I usually serve them at the very start of a festive dinner, before the main courses, so the guests can work up their appetite and be ready to enjoy a rich, hearty meal — lots of meaty treats and vegetable salads. A walnut cake is planned for dessert, but that's still a way off: everyone is busy enjoying these lovely little sandwiches. I first tried these cold sandwiches at a friend's party and liked them so much that after the meal I asked for the recipe.
