Instructions

Soak herring in cold water for at least 1 hour.
If very salty, repeat, changing the water each time.
Drain thoroughly and slice herring into bite-size pieces.
Place in a jar large enough to accommodate the pieces and cover with oil, allspice, peppercorns, and bay leaf.
Close the jar.
Refrigerate for 2 to 3 days before eating.
This will keep refrigerated up to 2 weeks.
Serve with finely chopped onion or onion slices, lemon, and parsley or dill.
