1. Soaking herring
- Soak herring in a galon [4 lt] of water for half an hour. Remove from the water and discard the water.
2. Boil herring
- Place herring in a pot with half a gallon [2 lt] of clean water and boil over medium-low heat till it starts flaking (15-20 mins). Remove from the water and cool to room temperature. Discard water.
3. Prep herring
- Flake the herrings, cleaning from bones and skin. Set aside.
4. Cook herring
