4 dl water

1 tbsp sugar
Mustard sauce:
½ dl grinded mustard (Colman's)
½ dl sugar
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 dl oil
1 dl fine-cut dill
(ca. ½ dl water)
Instructions:
Pull the skin off the herringfilets. Mix water, vinegar, salt and sugar.
Put the herringfilets to soak in the vinegarliquor for a couple of hours or over
night. Let the filets drain off well.
Mix grinded mustard, sugar and water. Flavour the mustard with balsamic vinegar.
Add the oil while whipping strongly, so that a smooth sauce is made. If the
sauce gets very thick, add some water. Put the drained-off filets with mustard
sauce in layers in a pot with a lid. Let it stand and gather flavour till the
next day. Serve with boiled potatoes or on a smorgasbord.
