Sandwiches with herring - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute Borodinsky bread with rye bread, pumpernickel, or whole-grain bread for a similar earthy flavor. For a lighter option, try sourdough or baguette slices.
For a vegetarian alternative, replace herring with mashed avocado, marinated tofu, or capers for a briny flavor. Smoked or roasted mushrooms also work well for a savory touch.
Store assembled sandwiches in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. For longer storage, keep ingredients separate and assemble just before serving to prevent soggy bread.
Yes! Prep the ingredients (chopped onions, herring, etc.) in advance and store them separately. Assemble the sandwiches 30 minutes before serving to maintain freshness and texture.
For a low-carb version, skip the bread and serve the herring mixture on cucumber slices, endive leaves, or keto-friendly crackers. You can also use a lettuce wrap.
Freezing is not recommended, as the texture of the bread and herring will degrade. However, you can freeze the herring fillet separately for up to 1 month and thaw before use.
Serve them as open-faced canapés for appetizers, or pair with pickles, olives, and a crisp salad for a light meal. A dollop of sour cream or horseradish adds extra zest.
Simply multiply the ingredients by the number of servings needed. For parties, slice the bread into smaller pieces to make bite-sized portions.
Yes, use dairy-free mayo, hummus, or a spread made from blended avocado and lemon juice for a creamy, dairy-free option.
