This is a typical German Christmas dinner. A bit elaborate and therefore you should plan enough time. The venison is made at low temperature. You should check your cooker if it can keep the temperature constant and what the setting is for exactly 80°. A too high or low temperature would be fatal.

When making fried herring, there are two things to consider: You only make kippers once in the house and never again afterwards because it smells bad and lasts a long time.
