The finest traditional Scottish Kipper smoked naturally with no additives. Each package contains two whole kippers (smoked herring), skin on. This is a proper whole kipper - split down the back and hung for smoking and packed flat in a vacuum sealed pouch. Grill them for breakfast, or use your favorite recipe. Made by John Ross Jr of Aberdeen, purveyor to the Royal family. Gently smoked over whisky barrel chips for a delicate flaky fish you remember.
Herring is an oily fish, excellent for you, and it freezes well.
A note on kippers: kippers generally refer to kippered herring (like ours). It is possible to kipper other fish, and one can find recipes for kippering salmon and other fish in Scottish cookbooks. Kippering involves, splitting, gutting, salting and smoking. Kippers are essentially cured through the salting and smoking process.
Kippers can be baked, fried, cooked in a tall jug of boiling water, or grilled outside (a popular method of reducing the aromas).
