Rhumsaa Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 when you say roll mop I think of pickled herring? I'm sure when I was a kid I had salted herring with potato, raw onion and a glass of milk on the side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Wright Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Not seen salt herring for years. Nearest is baccalao, salt cod. However it’s available on line, google is your friend https://www.jollysoforkney.co.uk/products/salt-herring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollag Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Baccalao, salt cod was known as Stock fish here, my old man made his own, drying it in our boiler room , Devereaus have it at the moment. It is a dry fish requiring soaking whereas salties can be cooked straight from the barrel. They also have roll mops [ raw pickled herring] And baked herring [rolled herring baked in pickling spice] I would scoff em all save for my crappy aged digestive system . Taken last week in Peel.
