Make a Canned Herring Recipe on a Crostini
canned HERRING …also called KIPPERS
thinly sliced and toasted BAGUETTE
CREAM CHEESE
RED ONION thinly sliced
MUSTARD (very optional…but I like it…as long as it’s not hot dog mustard!)
CAPERS …current caper prices online
fresh DILL
- A good bread is the start of a great crostini.
- Slice the bread thinly, so as to not overwhelm your toppings.
- Toast the bread lightly.
- Smear with cream cheese.
- Spread on a drop of mustard, too, this is optional, but quite nice with herring.
- Add a bit on thinly sliced red onion.
- Add capers and fresh dill.
- Top with smoked herring …either canned in oil or water, whatever you prefer.
Shop for tins at your local grocer, or check current Canned Herring Prices on Amazon.

Make a Healthy Salad with Kippers …aka smoked herring
Place an assortment of mixed greens in a salad bowl. No need to dress the salad greens; the salad toppings will be enough.
Add sliced carrot, bell pepper, or celery for a nice crunch, and added nutrition.
Top the greens with a kippered herring filet.
Spread whipped or softened cream cheese over the kipper, add a dash of Dijon or stone ground mustard, if desired.
Top with chopped red onion, capers, and fresh dill…and serve.
Canned herring is such a quick, easy, and healthy snack or dinner option.
