SOLOMON GUNDY
This is a very old recipe from the Lunenburg area of Nova Scotia. It is usually served as an appetizer. Serve the squares of herring with slices of raw onion on a cracker or tiny toast and garnish with a bit of pickled red pepper. I haven't included the overnight soak time in the prep time.
