Swedish salad with herring - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute with other pickled fish like rollmops or even smoked mackerel for a different flavor profile.
This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Be aware that the dressing may become thinner over time.
To make it vegetarian, omit the herring and add more cooked beets or other root vegetables like carrots. You might also consider adding marinated tofu for a similar brined flavor.
Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice to the beets after cutting them can help minimize staining. You can also prepare the beets separately and add them to the salad just before serving.
This salad is great on its own, but it's also delicious served on rye bread, crispbread, or as a side dish with grilled meats or fish.
Absolutely! Adjust the amount of honey to your liking. You can also use other sweeteners like maple syrup or agave nectar.
Freezing this salad is not recommended as the sour cream-based dressing tends to separate and the vegetables can become mushy upon thawing. It's best to make it fresh.
You can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier, slightly lighter option. Alternatively, try crème fraîche for a richer flavor.
