Pickled Beet and Herring Salad

This vibrant pickled beetroot and herring salad is a sophisticated celebration of Scandinavian-inspired flavours. Combining the earthy sweetness of pickled beets with the savoury depth of herring, this heart-healthy dish offers a beautiful balance of textures. The peppery watercress and crisp Belgian endive provide a fresh, slightly bitter contrast that cuts through the richness of the fish, all brought together by a simple white-wine vinaigrette.

Perfect as a light lunch or an elegant starter, this colourful salad is packed with omega-3 fatty acids and essential nutrients. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a quick, nutritious meal that does not compromise on flavour. Serve this colourful platter with a slice of dark rye bread or some hot new potatoes for a more substantial, wholesome dinner.
