We use a round cake mold with a diameter of 20 cm.

Even if you don’t have a cake mold, you can stack them on a deep plate! My Russian friend also says that she usually uses a deep plate to make it.

You can easily buy bottled pickled herring in European supermarkets, but in Japan you can probably buy pickled herring in sweet vinegar or in oil. If it is difficult to obtain, you can use sea chicken or salmon instead.

Regarding the time it takes to put it in the refrigerator, if you make it the day before you want to eat it and leave it overnight, the flavors will soak in and make it even more delicious.
