Brave the traditional Dutch way of eating raw herring – whole, held by the tail, with chopped onions and pickles. Find a haringkar (herring cart) at markets or try it at a proper fish shop where they'll prepare it fresh. The key is the 'soused' herring that's been cured in salt brine, giving it a mild, slightly sweet flavor that's surprisingly addictive once you get past the texture.
