The Official First Herring on Aruba was Presented to Eddy de Veer
The first new herrings of the 2018 at Café the Plaza!
The first new herrings of the 2018 season were presented to Eddy de Veer of executive management of MetaCorp and Fabian Latinga, director of operations of Aruba Wine and Dine last Friday afternoon. Both gentlemen pronounced the herring `delicious, fat and tasty'. The `haring happen', a traditional happening, took place at `home of the Dutch, Café the Plaza'. The new herring, containing a fat percentage between 21 and 23 percent, is of outstanding quality. A bit later this month the herring that is brought in, will be at its peak at 26 percent.
Of course a herring should be eaten rare, without chopped onions or pickles (an Amsterdam variety). The taste should come through loud and clear while the fish glides through your troat, delightful and full of flavor. From now on the 2018 catch of herring is available and it is warmly recommended to all herring lovers.
