How to quickly clean herring from bones
1. Take a fresh or lightly salted herring. Place it on a cutting board and pat it dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
2. Cut off the head and remove the insides if they are still inside.

3. Make a neat cut along the belly of the herring and open it like a book. Remove the black film to prevent the meat from having a bitter taste.
4. Cut off the very tip of the tail to make the next step easier.

5. Grab the herring with both hands by the tail. Gently but confidently scroll.
6. After scrolling, pull the skin sharply in different directions. The fillet should be easily separated from the backbone. If small bones remain, they can be quickly removed with tweezers or a knife.
