Herring under Shuba became one of the most iconic salads of the 20th century in the Soviet Union. Herring was known far beyond the borders of the country. However, abroad, the fame of the salad was different. Someone respected Herring under Shuba, like the inhabitants of Finland, and someone did not understand, like the French and Spaniards. The
fact is that for different peoples’ ideas about the combination of certain products are different. For someone the combination of herring with mayonnaise and vegetables seems wild and unpalatable. Especially if the people are accustomed to constantly using fresh vegetables, dressing them with butter and cream cheese.
