Welcome viewers and introduce the dish as a classic German recipe called Sahnehering.

Mention the ingredients needed: salt, pepper, sugar, herring, dill, pickles, apple, Greek yogurt, sour cream, creme fraiche, heavy cream, and half a lemon.

Cut pickles in half and then into larger pieces, ensuring they are not too finely chopped.

Slice a large apple into pieces, noting that half may be enough depending on preference, and cut into irregular chunks for texture.

Chop dill and mention the option to use a specific knife brand if viewers are interested.

Combine Greek yogurt, sour cream, and a bit of creme fraiche in a bowl, mixing them before adding heavy cream to adjust consistency.

Add fresh lemon juice to the mixture for acidity, along with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a small amount of sugar, stirring to combine.

Chop a shallot finely and add it to the mixture, explaining that a shallot has a milder flavor than a regular onion.

Add the chopped apple and pickles to the mixture and fold them in gently.

Cut herring into bite-sized pieces and add to the mixture, stirring to combine everything well.

Mention rinsing the herring if it was packed in oil and drying it with paper towels before adding it to the mix.

Adjust the consistency with a splash of milk if desired, noting that the mixture should be somewhat thicker like a dip.

Serve the Sahnehering with boiled potatoes, mentioning that the cooking of the potatoes is not shown in the video.

Garnish with additional pepper before serving.
