Directions:

Wash the herrings thoroughly and soak in cold water for 2 or 3 hours, changing the water twice. Remove the head, tail, and entrails. Save the milt. Remove the skin and bones. Rinse the fillets well and drain. Cut each fillet into 3 or 4 pieces. Put the milt through a sieve; combine with the cream and oil.
Bring the vinegar, water, peppercorns, and bay leaf to a boil and cool. Blend with the milt mixture. Arrange the herrings and sliced onion in alternate layers in a sealer; cover with the milt sauce. Cover tightly and let stand for one day before using. Arrange attractively in a serving dish and garnish with any one of the following: chopped parsley, fresh dill, scallions or chives.
