Instructions

  1. 1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potatoes, carrots, and beets; cook until cooked but still firm, 15 to 20 minutes for potatoes, 25 to 30 minutes for carrots, and 40 minutes for beets. Transfer vegetables to a cutting board as they're each done; cool to the touch.
  2. 2 Remove and discard skins from potatoes and beets. Grate potatoes, carrots, and beets separately; placing each in a separate bowl.
  3. 3 Arrange 1/2 each onion then herring in layers in a large bowl. Arrange 1/2 each potatoes, carrots, and beets in layers on top of onion and herring. Spread 3 tablespoons mayonnaise over salad; season with salt and black pepper. Repeat layers with remaining 1/2 each onion, herring, potatoes, carrots, beets, and mayonnaise.
  4. 4 Cover with plastic wrap; chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour. Serve cold.
