Have you seen these jars at the store and wondered what's inside? Have I forgotten about a fun fishy food from my youth? On test: Blue Hill Bay Herring in Wine Sauce
@@deloreswilson1798 It's firm, almost meaty in texture. slightly chewy but not at all tough. Here in the UK and rest of NW Europe i.e. Netherlands, Germany etc they are called Rollmops, sold in jars, rolled up with onion and a bit of gherkin in the centre, held together with a little wooden skewer. Soused herring is an old south English variant of this.
I felt like I was alone, like I didn’t belong anywhere. But I’ve found the sardine community. Matt, you’re a brand ambassador for the sardine lifestyle. I personally think that’s incredibly brave of you. You’re a voice for all of us. I used to open a can of sardines with shame. I thought; Do my coworkers hear a foghorn and seagulls at lunchtime? Now I’m a proud sea urchin a real salty dog, prowling the seven seas for my bounty full feast. What are we even doing here…Our battle cry!
Yah, cranky old guy here again...I first tried pickled herring in 1957, when I was ten. It was at a family Scandinavian Christmas gathering. I ran to the bathroom and spit them out! Fast forward to adulthood and I reexamined the taste, and found I really liked pickled herring. I've been lucky enough to eat pickled herring in Sweden, with relatives. Good stuff...and creamed pickled herring might even be better.
I was a bit opposite. I instantly loved pickled herring as a kid. My dad would occasionally buy some from a mom and pops local grocery store. It was always a treat. Fast forward since I was also 8-10ish I haven’t had any cause I always thought it was called pickled herring. Well, I’m in my late 20s now and I just realized it’s always been called herring in wine sauce(which I used to think was different).
As a native expert, in your opinion is there a best way to eat them? I see videos of people eating Surstrommig who enjoy it on some sort of flat bread, with sliced raw onions.
@Zali Becquerel I'm Norwegian but I think it's best on lefse which is the soft cousin of flatbread, with rømme (sour cream), red onion and some fresh herb like parsley or dill (optional) . Flatbread (not to be confused with knekkebrød) is best served with grilled fish (Trout, Pollock, Cod etc.) with butter and sour cream, pepper and salt and some dill sprinkled on top. Some lemon juice squeezed on top also works wonderfully. Now I'm hungry 🤤.
@@REXFORGT That sounds good! Although my Scandinavian half has more Swedish, I also carry some Norwegian DNA around with me, and am a member in good standing in the Sons of Norway Organization.
I live in the Netherlands, we are a the herring nation, we devour them "raw" after a slight fermentation on salt. But one of the snacks i like once in a while are those herring filet pieces in cream sauce. It's that same pickled herring but then smothered with cream sauce with pieces of onion in it. Same butter smooth bite goes down easy with a beer.
You are the best, Brotha. The soundtrack is the perfect pinch of pixie dust magic for this unexpectedly soothing therapeutic video. May your next meal be delicious 👊💥
Pickled herring is what it's all about:) I love that stuff. There's so many variations, spices, herbs, cream, boze, salt, acidity, sweetness. I'm gonna crack a can right now to celebrate :)
When I was in college (1978) we went on a winter ski bus trip to the Catskills. I was the ONLY one of 30 students who relished the pickled herring, creamed herring, lox, etc. on the breakfast menu. I love fish and still do. Matthew is a kindred spirit. Cilantro tastes like soap to me. But fish, any fish, is my comfort food. I could happily give up red meat if fish was available. Mackerel, bluefish, snapper, swordfish, cod, plain old "whitefish", (all either broiled or breaded), throw in calamari, and ANYTHING in a can. No coincidence, perhaps, that my ancestors were Danish.
This is the type of fish that got me started on preserved fish initially. Rollmops are popular in the UK and so I was always fed them as a kid. They help your lobes grow big.
@@Hartlor_Tayley I think it's a different term for herring in wine sauce and I think the pieces are bigger with rollmops than the jar Matthew was sampling.
@@miesals thank you all for the replies. That makes sense. Rollmops is such a funny word to me. I will be inserting “rollmops” into conversations from now on.
Never had pickled herring (it scared me) until about 5 years ago at a friend's Thanksgiving (they are upper-Midwest Norwegian stock). It's amazing stuff, and I look forward to having it a few times a year.
I got a jar of this one time for a video. I stuck it in my pantry (not refrigerator) without thinking. A couple weeks later it exploded. Worst smell of all time.
in the old times they used to say this was the price you had to pay if you wanted to ferment fish properly for longterm storage. Its like the fish would come alive through the glass jar, sharding it everywhere in a great exploding wrath if you forgot to salt them before they went in the jar - they gotta be atleast as salty as the sea they came from. After you opened the jar, you didn't put them in the fridge? Another rookie mistake. If you open the jar, the north sea demons awaken, they have to be cold like the fjords of norway. Big hub bro, sorry you had to go through that.
As a working musician, you gotta pay your dues if you expect to make a living. That means playing A LOT of bar mitzvahs! Trust me. You learned to love pickled herring.
I'm a regular guy in upstate N.Y. who never would have been exposed to pickled herring if not for one person who had them and let me try when I was a teenager. It was never offputting to me in any way. I just loved it. I buy them quite often. The ones in cream sauce are great, too.
Love the Vita herring and love to be loving more the Vita herring in sour cream sauce over the wine. Either way, good stuff. Now you absolutely have to do a review of the Vita Herring in Sour Cream! Mahalo!
I've always wanted to try this but i just bought it today because of your video!! It's so delicious! I was pleasantly surprised. I also added some soy sauce and thai chili and its really a great experience! The spice really brings out the savory umami taste from the fish and vinegar. Try it out!!
It was a show called Eyewitness. I never watched it, I think it was a little after my time, but another YT channel I like uses this music and I thought it was da bomb.
If you like pickled herring you might try Soused herring or Sill lightly salted pickled Herring in a jar. My Norwegian mother in law used to serve them whole on a soft roll that resembles a artisan Hotdog bun with lots of chopped onion. Sill herring can be purchased at a German deli or IKEA of all places. Or it’s fairly easy to make at home if you can find some fresh Herring at the fish market.
I've seen pickled herring at my local supermarket and I often ask myself 'who eats this?" But the fact that they keep restocking it means someone is eating it.
But, Mateo - ditching the tin cans for glass opens up a whole new world for you and us! Be careful where your feet lead you - next stop boxed fish fingers! 😕 Seriously, I love fish and have eaten similar to this, but the visual aspect of fish in liquid as opposed to (olive) oil is visually 'challenging'. However, I would urge people to give it a whirl.
Just try it, you have one and only one life to live right? either you hate or or you love it, atleast you get to know that if you try. Sitting around not eating pickled herring you will never know.
Oh! I see the same exact stuff on sale at Costco all the time but I keep getting cold feet. Thinking I want to learn how to make rollmops with them for a fishy drinkin' snack. Now that they have your stamp of approval, I've got no excuse not to try them out!
Vita was literally the only brand I ever saw in my entire life UNTIL I actually tried to find some a couple months ago. I'm beginning to understand that there may already be such a pickled herring scene that Vita just can't get into the territory.
THANK YOU. Drawing that fish took longer than making the entire video. I'm trying to learn how to draw. And doing it all digitally, with coloring is a new thing for me.
omg I love your shirt LLAP. My dad used to take me to a fish market back in the early 70s...he'd get a 5 gallon bucket of creamed herring and we'd split it with the family.
I've never in all my life considered just eating herring straight out of the jar with chopsticks, here (in Sweden) there is so much ritual and tradition about how and when you eat herring XD But you do you man! 👍
woah, that's really cool for $6 i just had ortiz anchovies on toast with a large amount of some good butter i plan on making all sorts of interesting pickles soon. i think finger lime, small chillies, and makrut lime leaves could be really good for oysters, white fish, crab...
I will be waiting for your youtube video, challenge yourself! I've pickled chili peppers with kefir lime leaves, then blended into hot sauce, it works, do it!
We have pickled pike,musky ,perch and walleye it's amazing 🐟😊 I have seen the Vita brand around here before ,if I can find a jar I will ship it to you 👍
Great review! Aldi has Freemont Fish Market Wild Herring in Wine Sauce, 32 ounce jar I think for about $8 which is a lot of fish for not a lot of money. Good stuff. Love your reviews. 🐟🐠
I haven't found it lately, don't know if they're still in business. But I highly recommend Ma Cohen's Pickled Herring with onions in Sour Cream. Mmmmm... the best.
I love pickled herring! You literally made me feel seen talking about sitting on the couch as a kid eating them out of the jar!!! Literally everyone else in my entire life has been like ew what gross. 😂 But I want the video with the Vita jar - total memories!
First: Dope shirt is dope. 🙂 Second: I love the content, but pickled herring is a reach for me. I've only had it once that I've truly enjoyed. It was a Pumpernickle Bahn Mi with pickled onions, fried ham, herring, and spicy dijon mustard. Incredible. Keep churning vids dude, I hope you make a fortune!
I found this channel looking for canned fish videos to cure a midnight curiosity. And what I found was incredibly well produced videos and great personality. :)
Love the Eyewitness VHS theme song cover in the beginning. Very nice modular set up, I'm guessing all these pleasant arpeggios are yours? Sick beats, even sicker 'erring innit?
Good video, Matthew. You’ve have again showed me something I had never thought about trying. I can get the Vita in wine sauce at a Walmart about 6 miles away. It’s $8 in a 32 oz jar. Gonna give it some serious thought.
@@Sabbathissaturday , Your comment pushed me off the fence. I bought the Vita. Wow! It’s delicious! My wife even likes it. Thanks for the encouragement!
The first time you try herring it’s magic ! But if you eat a jar a week you will have to buy new pants .if you live in New York vita is harder to find because acme is king of fish .you can find vita where they sell the horseradish
We get that here in the UK in LIdl, also in Polish supermarkets, or the Polish section of regular supermarkets like Tesco. It's the white one though, ''Hausfrauen Art'' with apple and gherkin in a mayo/yoghurt sauce, with dill. We can't get the pink beetroot one ready made over here like you can in Germany, but sometimes I make it myself.
try to get your hands on some varieties if swedish pickled herring! Matjessill, senapssill, västkustsill and traditional inlagd sill are the four best ones. But there's like thousands other flavours as well.
I used to get smoked sprats in a rounded jar shorter than the jar that you just opened. $2.99 they were from Latvia but I don't remember the brand name. They were standing vertically in the jar have you ever seen this? 🐟🐠🐟🐠🐟🐠🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🦈🦈🦈🦈
Riga gold in jar form, they also come in cans, usually found in international/eastern european/russian grocery stores. Very smokey and excellent spread over hard crunchy toast.
It's amazing how much smells will bring back old memories. Just hearing you explain it brings me back. Don't know if you've done ceviche yet, I havent seen it canned, but it is delicious. May have to lead to another Matt channel of "things from the sea that not everybody eats?" Another great video, keep it up.
So what am I even doing here??? So I’m sittin here somewhere north of the ‘Ville aka Nashville Tennessee USA.... watching another epi of the canned fish files on a Saturday morning. I’m now the proud owner of a random bag of miscellaneous canned fish food stuffs to try.... I’m trying to work out just how and why this whole damn show works ya know? Like if someone was to ask me, “what did you do with your precious moments on this Earth today?” And I’m like- binge watched some guy eat deenz from a can with chopsticks 🥢 would cause them to squint n eye and scratch their head- secretly wondering if I might need evaluated at the local mental health facility. 🤔 I can’t explain but the best way I could describe this guy and his appeal is like know how when you watch a Tarantino film moment and realise he can make the most mundane everyday moments fascinating and riveting? It’s like that mixed with the chill & safety of the Joy of a Bob Ross vibe. Honestly- he has proven by changing his cat box and walking through crowds that he is a Master at making whatever he does - charming and interesting. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Anything with the Blue Hill Bay Brand is superior. They make delicious cold-smoked salmon, smoked trout and smoked whitefish, found at Whole Foods and Sprouts.
I havnt tried that brand but I think I’ve had their smoked trout in the vacuum pack. Pickled herring is a good deal and quite tasty. Hey nice rack (synth). Maybe put the fish through the ring modulator until it tastes like chicken.

I love that there are people passionate about preserved fish and I love that through TH-cam you can share your passion with the world.

Love the fact with using chopsticks 🥢
Okay, you have done it. I have to try pickled herring now
I like herring I’ll have to get me a jar of this
When you enjoy them, and then realize what the white floaties are. Go ahead. Look it up. (i still love them though)
It's amazing how much smells will bring back old memories. Just hearing you explain it brings me back. Don't know if you've done ceviche yet, I havent seen it canned, but it is delicious. May have to lead to another Matt channel of "things from the sea that not everybody eats?" Another great video, keep it up.
I loved pickled herring when I was a kid, weirdly ive grown out of it…
I love Pickled Herring
So what am I even doing here???
So I’m sittin here somewhere north of the ‘Ville aka Nashville Tennessee USA.... watching another epi of the canned fish files on a Saturday morning.
I’m now the proud owner of a random bag of miscellaneous canned fish food stuffs to try....
I’m trying to work out just how and why this whole damn show works ya know? Like if someone was to ask me, “what did you do with your precious moments on this Earth today?” And I’m like- binge watched some guy eat deenz from a can with chopsticks 🥢 would cause them to squint n eye and scratch their head- secretly wondering if I might need evaluated at the local mental health facility.
🤔 I can’t explain but the best way I could describe this guy and his appeal is like know how when you watch a Tarantino film moment and realise he can make the most mundane everyday moments fascinating and riveting? It’s like that mixed with the chill & safety of the Joy of a Bob Ross vibe.
Honestly- he has proven by changing his cat box and walking through crowds that he is a Master at making whatever he does - charming and interesting.
👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Welcome, whats your favorite canned fish?
Thank you very much! I make my video for people like you that get it.
quality video as always
Anything with the Blue Hill Bay Brand is superior. They make delicious cold-smoked salmon, smoked trout and smoked whitefish, found at Whole Foods and Sprouts.
I'm sure I'll try it all. I also tried their "homestyle pickled herring" and it was amazing.
I haven't had any since a kid. I can almost taste it from he video
Acme is huge, smoked salmon is there niche
I havnt tried that brand but I think I’ve had their smoked trout in the vacuum pack. Pickled herring is a good deal and quite tasty. Hey nice rack (synth). Maybe put the fish through the ring modulator until it tastes like chicken.
Mmmm dalek fish!
@@CannedFishFiles a little espanaler sauce and they’re dalekicious
I used to hate pickled fish,now I like it thanks to you.I got some Vita..Wine sauce would be nice too.😗
Keep an eye out...reminds me of a joke I once heard. Thanks
You need to try some spanish sardines in "Escabeche", which is a vinegar style sauce.
Onion is crucial, some brands skimp on the onions. Eat with crackers. Also available with sour cream, ya!
It’s 8:17 AM and I want herring!
I like the pickled herring more than the sardines. But I’m trying to train myself to eat more sardines.
