Pickled smoked haring




Pickled smoked haring


Bought a few packs of smoked raw haring as stock, unlike smoked mackerel which I like to bake to refresh, smoked haring has a denser meat and is far saltier to eat as such. Hence pickling is a good way to enjoy it, reduce the saltiness and convenient to keep as a quick bit.

1. Bring to boil and simmer 1/2 vinegar and 1/2 water, season with brown sugar, ginger, garlic, star anise, chili, peppercorns, for 15 minutes.

2. Rinse smoked haring with a little liqueur, place a filet at a time into simmering pickling liquid for a few seconds, rest on a plate.

3. Re-boil pickling liquid and let it cool down.

4. Cut haring into bite size pieces, pour cooled pickling liquid, marinate for at least a day. Cooling the liquid first will not over cook the fish and the meat will retain more moisture. Keep in the fridge.
