(2 pack) Brunswick Sardines in Mustard & Dill Sauce, Boneless Butterflied Herring Fillets, Wild Caught, Gluten Free, 17g Protein per Serving, Shelf Stable Can, 3.75 oz

Firstly, I like the Brunswick brand, purchasing several other varieties over the years. First time trying the mustard-dill variety, mainly because of a number of favorable reviews. I like that there are large chunks of filleted fish, and yes, small herring are called sardines. With the first can, I ate as a snack with whole grain crackers, and found the fish good quality, solid, not mushy. However, for my taste, the sauce is a bit too pungent and too salty. For my second try, I remembered an old Scandinavian herring salad recipe: I picked out the fish pieces, placed them in a bowl, leaving most of the sauce behind; added one chopped firm (roma) tomato, about 1/4 of a cucumber, chopped, about 2 tbs chopped sweet onion, and mixed it all up with 2 tablespoons of sour cream. Now I had a good healthy lunch, and the saltiness was neutralized. Try it along with some hearty rye bread or crackers. Thank me later.
