What to do if herring with onions is bitter

If you cook herring with onions, you don’t need to look for the reason for the bitter taste in the fish. Usually, it is the onion that is responsible for the appearance of bitterness in this dish.

How to make onions not bitter in herring

Whether you cook herring under a fur coat or as an independent dish, in any case, onions should not spoil its taste. It often gives bitterness when we cut onions mechanically. For example, with the help of a food processor or other similar devices.

In this case, all the bitterness from the onion comes out and quickly spoils the pleasant taste of the herring. Therefore, it is much better to cut onions by hand.

The second reason for the appearance of bitterness is improper processing of onions. Or to be more precise, there is no such thing at all. In the meantime, it is very easy to avoid the appearance of bitterness – it is enough to scald already chopped onions with boiling water. This will completely remove the bitterness from it, make it softer and tastier. After such processing, nothing can spoil the wonderful taste of salted herring.
