4 servings
40 minutes
Norwegian herring tartare with egg yolk is a dish that embodies the traditions of northern cuisine with a touch of sophistication. Norwegian lightly salted herring, known for its rich flavor and tender texture, serves as the base for a harmonious blend of ingredients in this recipe. Sweet-sour gherkins, sweet beetroot, and sharp onion create a play of flavors complemented by the creamy softness of sour cream. The pinnacle of this culinary ensemble is fresh dill and raw egg yolk, adding a silky texture. This dish requires no cooking and its presentation in a ring pattern turns the tartare into a true gastronomic artwork. It pairs perfectly as an appetizer with a glass of cold white wine or traditional northern drinks.
