A short instruction from the fish chapter of «Stor kokebok» (1914) for how smoked mackerel can be heated. The suggested sides—scrambled eggs, spinach, sorrel, and gooseberry purée—add acidity and freshness to the oily fish.
Cut the fish
Cut the smoked mackerel into somewhat broad pieces.
Toast or fry
Toast the pieces, or fry them in butter until heated through and nicely browned.
Serving
Serve with scrambled eggs, spinach, sorrel, or gooseberry purée.
Quantities are not given in the original; guideline amounts for four servings have been added. The wording of the method has been modernized in the steps, but the content is unchanged.
