PICKLED HERRING AND CUCUMBER SALAD
It just so happens I like cucumber salad and pickled herring, so I decided to try this combination and the results are great. You can add your own seasoning to give it some zip, but I prefer just to leave it alone. The prep time and cook time are about the same.

Steps:
- Drain Herring and dice into bite-size pieces. Minced Onion, chopped Celery, Water Chestnuts, and Apples into bite-size pieces. Whip Sour Cream until it stands in soft peaks. Blend Sour Cream with Herring and ingredients. Blend well. Chill before serving. Serve on Lettuce Leaves and/or with crackers, bread.

Steps:
- You will need a glass jar that will hold one quart, must have a cover!
- Bring the vinegar, water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan, stirring constantly until the sugar is dissolved. Take the saucepan off the heat and set the liquid aside to cool to room temperature.
- Open the jars of herring and drain them in a strainer. Pick out the herring fillets, rinse them in cold water, and throw everything else away.
- Cook the carrots according to the package instructions, but make sure they're still firm and not soft.
- Peel the red onions and cut them into thin slices.
- Arrange one-fourth of the onions in a thin layer in the bottom of the 1-quart glass jar. Top them with a third of the herring. Top the herring with a third of the carrots. Place 2 or 3 dill springs on the top and scatter on a third of the allspice and a third of the mustard seeds. Repeat the sequence until all the ingredients have been used, ending with a top layer of onions.
- Pour the cooled pickling liquid into the jar. It should just cover the contents. If there's not enough pickling liquid, top off the jar with a little white vinegar right out of the bottle.
- Place the cover on the jar.
- Refrigerate the herring for 3 days before serving.
