Herring salad recipe from Dad’s papers

This was a favorite of my dad, Jaan Joot.  I’m pretty sure that it is actually Vanaema’s recipe.

 

2 herring

2 small cans beets

6 potatoes (large)

4-5 pickles

1 onion

1 apple

3 (¼”) slides ham or 5” kolbassa

2 hard boiled eggs

1 tablespoon mustard

salt and pepper to taste

sour cream and mayo (small bowl)

– add above just before serving

Makes about 3-4 liters.
