Here is my recipe for marinated herrings. To preserve them in jars, it will be more complicated (because of the somewhat technical equipment: sealing machine, etc.)

Ingredients for 6 servings

Marinated herrings for 6 people:

2 kg of small herrings or 1 kg of fillets of large herrings
2 beautiful onions peeled and sliced
2 large carrots peeled and sliced
4 cloves crushed with 6 peppercorns, fine salt, 1 bay leaf and a little thyme flowers
1/2 bottle (37.5 cl) of dry white wine (Gros Plant for example)
10 cl of alcohol vinegar

Step-by-step directions

THE EVENING BEFORE
Clean the small herrings or fillets then sprinkle with fine salt, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate
THE NEXT MORNING

1 Preheat the oven to 220° (th7)

2 In a high oven-safe dish, lay a layer of herrings, some pepper and clove, some carrots and onions, some herbs (chopped) if possible (flat parsley, chervil, …), some thyme, then cover with a little white wine and a little vinegar then build up layers by repeating the same operation. Finish with the white wine and the bay leaf, bring to a boil then put in the oven for 15 minutes

3 Remove the dish and let the herrings cool in their cooking liquid. Then refrigerate covered and serve gradually starting from the next day
