Herring, Potato & Dill Salad — AgeGen

Pickled herring with new potatoes, dill and a yogurt dressing — a Northern-European staple that carries about 2 g of EPA and DHA and 600 IU of vitamin D.

Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Pickled herring — 110 g
  • New potatoes — 200 g
  • Dill — 10 g
  • Yogurt — 60 g
  • Red onion — 25 g

Macros per serving

  • Calories: 460 kcal
  • Protein: 28 g
  • Fat: 20 g
  • Carbs: 42 g
  • Fiber: 5 g

Key micronutrients

  • Omega-3 EPA+DHA — ~2.0 g
  • Vitamin D — ~600 IU
  • Vitamin B12 — ~10 µg

Why it earns a spot in the rotation

  • 600 IU of vitamin D from food rather than a capsule, which very few meals manage.
  • ~10 µg of B12 — several times a day's requirement, from one small fish.
  • Herring is a small, short-lived fish, which is what keeps it low on the food chain.
  • The potatoes are cooked and cooled, and the yogurt replaces the mayonnaise the dish usually arrives in.
