What is Kippers? How to cook it. How to eat. The strange foods with strange ingredients.

Kippers are an English breakfast dish, often eaten with other morning foods such as eggs, toast, and biscuits. Kippers are usually smoked fish that is typically made from herring, but can also be made out of salmon. They are typically preserved by packing them in salt or brine before smoking them over a fire. Some people may choose to soak the kipper in vinegar before cooking it to reduce the smoky flavour.

The fish of choice for kippers is usually herring or sprats, but any firm-textured whitefish can be used. They are traditionally prepared by being split down the back and gutted and then lightly salted on the outside. They are often smoked over a fire until the skin becomes tough enough to withstand cooking without breaking open.
