Devon kippers

Devon kippers are smoked herring fillets prepared through a traditional curing process in Devon, England. The herrings are split open, cleaned, salted or brined, and then cold-smoked over oak or other hardwoods. This preserves the fish and imparts a distinctive rich, smoky flavor. Typically enjoyed at breakfast or as part of a meal, kippers are valued for their preserved quality, nutritional benefits like omega-3 fatty acids, and their place in British culinary heritage. They can be grilled, fried, or poached and are often served with toast, eggs, or other accompaniments.
