Description

Kippers are smoked herring. Our whole kippers are supplied by the Port of Lancaster Smokehouse and have been awarded the maximum three gold stars in the Guild of Fine Food Great Taste awards.

To make these exceptional kippers, herring are split then smoked over a blend of hardwoods. Free from additives and dye, the fish are prepared with the central bone in place and vacuum-packed in pairs to ensure maximum flavour.

While pickled herring is consumed in vast quantities in Scandinavian countries, Germany and the Netherlands, in the UK we much prefer smoked herring. The traditional method of preparing kippers is under the grill, served with a knob of butter, either for breakfast or lunch. They can also be simmered in the bag they are packed in for around five minutes.

Kippers are brimming with goodness – they’re high in omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids, protein, vitamin D and plenty more besides. So whether you lead an active lifestyle or simply want to look after your bones and cardiovascular system, eating kippers will pay dividends.

The kippers are landed in the north-east Atlantic Ocean.

How We Package Your Fish and Seafood

1. We vacuum pack fish portions in pairs and whole fish individually. Scallops are also vacuum packed, while oysters and lobsters are placed in a box. 
2. Each portion is then clearly labelled with the species, who packed it, the date it was packed and a fresh use-by date.
3. We add frozen chill packs, which contain non-toxic gel, to a polystyrene box.
4. We pack your order so the chill packs distribute the cold evenly throughout your fish and seafood, ensuring maximum freshness.
5. We seal the box with packing tape and hand it to our courier, who will deliver it to you within 24 hours.
