Food & Grocery Rollmops

Hi everyone,

I am slowly but surely finding my way around duma without constant GPS.

Have been able to source all the obvious a lot food and a very good selection of euro and aussie foods.

The one item I crave are Rollmps. These are a common food in Northern Europe.

Some people hate it. Obviously I do not.

I have been searching for 4 months now - but just when it looks like a new positive lead in the search - it ends up as another dead end. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....

Does anyone know where / how I can source them?

Feedback appreciated

 

Hi there,

Casablanca was the surprise dead end.

Wasn't aware the Why Not had a deli, so a new lead.

Thanks

 

Thanks for the help.

But again dead ends ....

 

Did you try the UK mark at Zip Diner next to the rear Entrance to Tops & Bottoms? he is pretty good at these things

 

Hi nutz , good meeting you last evening , I'm hot on the trail of those herring substitutes , they're caught locally .
I'll scout around today down the highway and in Sibulan market.
In the UK they are know as Donkey Mackerel , or Jacks .
First fillet them , fine bone them with tweezers, then skin 'em , roll them so the tail is innermost . Use toothpicks to secure.
You'll need a glass jar with a wide mouth ( that'll be an English jar then hahahahah) .
If you can find pickling vinegar then that'll do nicely. I used Heinz apple cider vinegar "Pepper perfect " 32 fluid ounce size ( 1 quart ) maybe using datu puti is good too.
I added sliced onion .
It's trial and error as to how long you leave them to souse.
I think I left mine about 5 to 7 days in the fridge.
Good luck and Ingat .
