Traditionally smoked kippers are pale golden in colour, but commercially made kippers are sometimes artificially coloured – these processed kippers can also have added smoke ‘flavouring’, and are often produced from herrings that are much leaner (indicating they have recently spawned and are not in season).
A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish, that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering woodchips.
Grilling also concentrates the flavour, which may not be to everyone’s taste. Kippers require very little cooking, and the best method is to gently poach them for no more than a few minutes.

Eating oily fish once or twice a week can reduce levels of fatty substances in your blood, reducing your risk of a heart attack.
Kippers are a particularly good choice, as herring is one of the types of fish higher in Omega 3 fats and has lower Mercury levels.
