What it is
Young, delicately brined herring fillets, often served with raw red onions and a creamy dill sauce. The traditional boiled potatoes and apple pieces are omitted for a keto version.
Key ingredients
Matjes (herring) fillets, red onions, sour cream/creme fraiche, fresh dill, lemon juice, salt, pepper, oil.
How to make it keto
Omit boiled potatoes and apple pieces. Ensure the dill cream is unsweetened; if unsure, ask for plain sour cream/creme fraiche with fresh dill and lemon to be mixed at the table.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Bitte keine Salzkartoffeln und keine Apfelstücke. Ist die Dillcreme ungesüßt? Oder könnte ich neutrale Saure Sahne mit frischem Dill und Zitrone haben?
No boiled potatoes or apple pieces, please. Is the dill cream unsweetened, or could I have plain sour cream with fresh dill and lemon?
Watch out for
Boiled potatoes, apple pieces, sugar in the cream sauce or in the pickling liquid for the herring (some matjes can be sweeter).
