Now for the Cool Kipper


HERRING'S FINNS and ALL KINDS OF THINGS


A mammoth task has been undertook


These beautiful fish have been underrated for far too long.




In 1977, a total herring ban was put in place . As gill nets were abandoned with trawling and ring netting taking president, eventually this type of method resulted in over fishing of the mighty & humble herring. 




The ban was not lifted until 1983 and by that time the younger generation were no longer accustomed to herring on the menu and the 
market demand dropped considerably. 

The smokeress at The Dungeness Smokery is here to re-ignite a love for herring. Without the herring girls most would not have tried this fish.



                               1950's girls                      2000's girl     

After a good old splitting, salting & smoking they present themselves on your breakfast table.





Check tomorrows post for where you can buy these beauties this weekend.

That's Christmas breakfast salted!
