Bloater Paste

Bloater Paste is a fish spread made from salted, smoked herrings called “bloaters”, which are smoked whole with the insides still in them. A bloater has a more gamey flavour than cleaned herrings.

It is sold in small jars. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 3 days.

Bloater Paste is usually spread on toast, though it is also good on a jacket potato.

It is seen as a bit working class by some.

Shippam’s is a well-known brand of Bloater Paste, made since at least 1890 from Mackerel, and Bloater.

Sainsbury’s has made its own brand for a long time.

Update January 2016: Bloater Paste may have been discontinued by all producers.
