You are a man of many talents Michaelb..

I helped a mate about 20 years ago.
He made a variety of smallgoods at home.
Don't remember a lot of the process.
HAd a couple of drinks while working.
They did taste good though.
Mostly salami and presswurst.

I for one would love to read more about you exploits.

Presently working with a bloke who makes his own cheese and smokes his own hams.

Aart these are projects for the future list, been reading about cheese making, but the next major project will be my first go at Rollmops.

I love Rollmops and Salted Herrings

What type of fish will you be using for that?

Had some of both while I was in Holland last month.
They taste a lot better than the Matjes Herring in oil that you can get at Woolies.

Aart a man after my own heart, mum and dad are both from Hamburg, so for us it was always herring, that's what I will use.

When mum stays she gets the Matjes herrings, mixes them into sour cream with diced up onions and diced up sweet and sour gherkins (she will only buy GeeVee), refrigerate for 12 hrs, then into it.

I did take a pack to Yarrawonga to make them up, but we had sufficient food, and they may not have been to every ones palette.

The salted herring you mentioned was that Dutch Soused Herring, or another, keen to research that.

Thanks Aart

Not home made, BUT I bought some amazing snags from Village Meats Rosalie Brisbane a couple of weeks ago after reading an article in The Courier-Mail Tuesday food section about them.
Duck with Orange; Pork with apple and sage; Pork and Leek etc
Not cheap but the best snags ever.
Unfortunately they did not have any Rabbit or Pheasant snags left as they said they had been cleaned out after the paper story.
Nice touch, the butcher threw in half a Kg of Beef/capsicum/tomato snags FOC when he learnt we had come from Toowoomba specially to visit this shop. Little did he know that we do these things on Sundays as a "run out" and have a destination then work all around the ridges going to it and coming back!

Beryl is from Prussia!
The family name since WW1 was Brady.
They called themselves the 'Brady Bunch' as a big family and thought they were Irish.
Then to the the family doo at a funeral and this lady had done a Family Tree!
The Brede couple set sail from Hamburg in the 1883 on the good ship The Reichstag and arrived at the Port of Maryborough Qld..............
Brede had an ' over the e's like the French do.

There was a gourmet food producer in melb many years ago...The name was ESKAL(i think) they had a Schmaltz Herring that was with lots of onion and a pickled oil.. It was to die for...

As for your mum recipe, it sounds great.
I remember something similar...Herring Salad mix..
GeeVee is a name I haven't had much to do with in years...
30 years ago I worked for the Qld distributor of GeeVee products.

6 Years in the gourmet food wholsale trade.
With my European background what else would I do straight from school.
