Frequently asked questions
Can the potatoes be replaced by pre-prepared boiled potatoes?
Yes, you can use pre-prepared boiled potatoes, but the result will not be the same.
Can I use common pickled herring instead of pickled herring?
We do not recommend it, as the special cured herring is softer and more flavorful.
How do I do it if I don't have mayonnaise?
Use a mixture of ketchup and mustard instead of mayonnaise.
What can I do to make the sauce creamier?
Add more mayonnaise or a little milk powder for extra creaminess.
