How to marinate herring with onions and vinegar? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. At the finished salted herring, cut off the head and pull out the insides. Cut it along the floors, remove the ridge, large bones and remove the skin from the fish. The amount of onion can be slightly changed to your taste. But there must be enough of it. Pickled onions also turn out to be very tasty.

Cut the peeled herring fillet into portions. You don't need to cut very large, just 3-5 cm. Put the chopped herring in a bowl, in which you will marinate it. Use glassware. It will be easier to wash it later. Plastic utensils will smell like onions and fish for a long time.

Take 9% vinegar for marinating. Combine it with water at a ratio of 1: 3. Vinegar cannot be replaced with essence! But it can be replaced with grape or apple (gives a specific aroma).

Peel the onions and rinse in cold running water. Cut the peeled onion into half rings and remember it a little with your hands. This is necessary for the onion to become softer and juice faster.

Mix the onion with the herring and cover everything with a mixture of water and vinegar. For fragrance, you can add several peppercorns and bay leaves. Marinate the herring for 5-6 hours in the fridge.

Remove the tasty and fragrant pickled herring from the marinade, put on a dish and serve to the table. You can pour vegetable oil on it a little. Enjoy your meal!
