About Kippers

Kippers are a traditional British delicacy made from herring that has been split, salted, and smoked, often enjoyed as a breakfast item. Originating in the United Kingdom, their preparation dates back centuries as a method of preserving fish. Rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins like B12 and D, kippers are considered a nutritious food that supports brain health, heart health, and overall wellness. They are also low in carbohydrates, making them a suitable option for low-carb diets. However, the sodium content from the salting process can be high, which may not be ideal for individuals monitoring sodium intake or blood pressure. Kippers are versatile and commonly paired with toast, eggs, or vegetables for a satisfying meal. Their distinctive smoky flavor and nutritional benefits make them a staple in many traditional and modern diets.
