Ingredients

  • one cupful boiled beet
  • half cupful of cold meat
  • two herrings minced fine
  • one onion
  • one large dill pickle

  • two cold boiled potatoes

Directions

1

Two herrings minced fine, one cupful boiled beet, one onion, one large dill pickle, one sour apple, two hard boiled eggs, two cold boiled potatoes, and a half cupful of cold meat, all chopped fine. Mix well with the herring, moisten with sauce made of good stock, vinegar, mustard, and pepper. Let stand over night, stir once more thoroughly and see that all is juicy. Pack tightly on platter and garnish in concentric rings with chopped parsley in the center, chopped white of egg around the parsley, chopped yolks of eggs around the whites, and chopped beets around the yolks. This makes an attractive dish.
