| Sleepeasy commented on 07.29.07 | | By the way, the name 'rollmops' comes from the Dutch "rol 'm op" meaning "roll it up" (it, or him – though in this case the gender is of no relevance as the difference between male and female herrings remains indistinguishable to the human taste bud.) |

| Sleepeasy commented on 07.29.07 | | Yeah, it's raw pickled herring, rolled up around a piece of gherkin and/or sweet onion. The marinade is sweet & sour and it's delicious. No mayonnaise though. |

| wim commented on 07.29.07 | | neither have I, I always thought mops was a kind of fish and I did not appreciate the mayonnaise combined with onions and a cheesepricker |
