Old Ironmaker Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) I love pickled herring! Feature foods spiced matjes herring is a must try for any pickled herring lover When I was younger and had more than 2 beers a night we would hit a greasy spoon after closing. I went to celebrate my good friends 40th in Halifax. After a night of merriment they break out the PICKLED HERRING. Solaman Grundy or some God awefull thing. The worst hangage I ever had. I can't even walk down the canned fish aisle to this day. Edited December 19, 2014 by Old Ironmaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnsled Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 I almost did not make it through this thread with all the puke (I mean talk..no puke) about liver. Thankful for the Kabobs, beef sausage and zucchini, and pizza or I never would have made it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 You have no idea what good pickled herring is. The really good stuff you used to get right out of the barrel just like good dill pickles. Used to be a good Finnish shop on Queen st called Huites. These days, when you get a chance, go to IKEA's deli, there is a good variety of 5-6 flavours of herring. IF you are ever in Minnesota or Michigan, Look for a brand called Gafelbiters. The Norwegian herring was a family favourite, but no one sells it here in Ontario now. Bruce Try this place. I stop in there when I make my milk run. It,s a piece of food heaven. http://www.starskycanada.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) The rice.... Soooo good done in the oven with an awesome amount of heat... And the plate.... Her pilaf, with the kabob, sliced cucumber, tomatoe and feta. With a fresh yogurt dip... Nirvana on a plate Having a issue with the second pic photobucket does not want to play nice... Weird. Needless to say it was awesome. Edited December 19, 2014 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiel Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Love Cabbage Rolls, hate the work. I've done the "Lazy Man" thing and liked them but they're still work. A friend just recently shared a recipe for "Unstuffed Cabbage Rolls" done on the stove in a pot rather than in the oven. Easy peasy I thought, I now have a pot with approximately 15lbs of said recipe (with some personal touches) on the stove simmering to reduce the liquid content. Fresh Calabrese bread and butter are waiting for the first serving. One or two more days of eating and the rest will be portioned and frozen for future convenience.

kuhaman Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Worked with a guy that would buy meats and sausages from Starsky. He brought a bunch to work and shared with me and it was always fantastic. Gerritt, the rice looks great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cabbage rolls became a casserole in the crock pot, done in layers like a lasagna. The only thing missing is the work to get the cabbage rolled right Edited December 20, 2014 by bigugli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misfish Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 (edited) Love Cabbage Rolls, hate the work. How much work? Steam a head of cabbage,remove layers,throw a gob of seasoned meat with rice mixed in it and roll. Not to mention stuffing a few red peppers at the same time. LOL The mrs,s makes the lazy . I hate it. Might as well make a meat loaf and place cabbage leaves over it.LOL Does look good though I have to admit. Im a sucker for hearty good soup and fresh bread and butter.
