    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..... :banghead:

    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

    I'm pretty sure you know how/where to find Bogart's bar, so ask Andy. If he doesn't have them in stock he might know who does or he can order them...

    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 .
