Irish kippers

Irish kippers are a traditional breakfast delicacy made from herring fish that have been cleanly split open, gutted, and then lightly smoked. This smoking process enhances their flavor and preserves them. Typically, kippers are enjoyed grilled or steamed, often served with butter, eggs, or on toast, providing a rich, savory taste. They are a popular staple in Irish cuisine, valued for their distinctive smoky aroma and tender texture. As a nutritious choice, they are high in omega-3 fatty acids and protein, making them both flavorful and healthful.
