2. Rinse the herring fillets and wipe them clean. Add salt, pepper and rye flour and turn the fillets in it. Fry until golden in butter (not in oil), 2 minutes per side.
3. Mix sour cream with chopped chives and Swedish caviar.
4. Serve with boiled new potatoes and lemon.
This is a typical Swedish archipelago dish. Serving fried herring with new potatoes, a cold sour cream sauce, chopped chives and lemon is about as Swedish as it can get. Have this dish for dinner the first or maximum second evening.
Swedish caviar is a paste made from red caviar. It is smoother and milder than normal red caviar and comes in a tube.
