About Dressed herring

Dressed Herring, or "Herring Under a Fur Coat," is a layered salad originating from Eastern European and Russian cuisine. Its ingredients typically include pickled herring, boiled potatoes, carrots, beets, eggs, and a generous layer of mayonnaise, with the vibrant beet topping giving the dish its signature color. While it’s a festive staple at holiday gatherings, its nutrition profile reflects both benefits and indulgences. The herring provides healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health, along with essential vitamins like B12 and D. The vegetables contribute fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, especially from beets, known for supporting circulation and detoxification. However, the dish is calorie-dense due to the mayonnaise, which is high in fat and calories. Moderation is key to enjoying this flavorful and visually striking salad as part of a balanced diet.
