As the most smelly food we see in our daily life, some people like durian very much, but some people scoff at it. But how can durian we see in our daily life compare with canned herring? Compared with canned herring, it is absolutely insignificant. Some research results show that the smell of canned herring is 20 times that of stinky tofu.
In fact, canned herring is Sweden's national treasure. In addition, the art of making canned herring has been passed down for hundreds of years, so canned herring is also a food with a long history. Now canned herring has become an indispensable food in Swedish life. In fact, at first, Swedes were not used to the taste of canned herring. But because of poverty at that time, they had to choose foods like canned herring.
This dish was originally made like many other delicious dishes to fill the stomach. Legend has it that the herring they caught at sea can't be eaten, but they don't want to throw it away. Therefore, herring can only be preserved by salting for later consumption. However, because the salt at that time was not as cheap as the salt we ate in our daily life, and it was very expensive at that time, they could only cook herring in seawater, then put it in a jar, sealed it, preserved it for natural fermentation, and finally became a notorious canned herring.
