Sillikaviaari

Sillikaviaari is a traditional spread originating from Finland. The spread is usually made with a combination of marinated herring, hard-boiled eggs, onions, dill, sour cream, mustard, and capers. The herrings are patted dry and chopped into small cubes. The pieces are then placed into a bowl and mixed with minced onions, dill, sour cream, mustard and capers until well blended. It's recommended to use mild and slightly sweet mustard when making this spread. Once prepared, sillikaviaari is typically served with crackers or rye bread, but it can also be used as a topping for boiled new potatoes.
