Craster kipper
Craster kipper is a traditional smoked herring originating from the village of Craster in Northumberland, England. This delicacy is known for its distinctive flavor, achieved through a unique cold-smoking process that involves hanging the fish in a smokehouse for several hours. The result is a rich, smoky taste that has made it a popular choice among seafood lovers.
The preparation of Craster kippers typically involves gutting and splitting the fish before smoking. They are often enjoyed for breakfast, served with butter on toast or as part of a larger meal. This regional specialty has gained recognition and is celebrated for its quality and heritage.
