rollmop

Coiled pickled fish

A rollmop is a pickled herring fillet rolled around a savory filling, typically onion or pickle, and secured with a wooden skewer.

Served cold as an appetizer or snack, rollmops are associated with German and Northern European cuisine: We ordered rollmops and dark bread at the beer hall.
