Vürtsikiluvõileib, Spiced Baltic Sprats sandwich with boiled egg

As the winter mornings can be quite cold, it’s a good idea to enjoy warm peppermint or raspberry stems tea with some kiluvõileib (salted sprat sandwich with boiled egg). For making sandwich You need Estonian black rye bread
The Baltic sprat (Sprattus sprattus balticus) is a subspecies of the European sprat (Sprattus sprattus), also known  as brisling or skipper. They are up to 12,5 cm long (about 5 inches), small, silvery and herring-like. The sprats are commonly marinated in a mixture of black pepper, allspice (aka Jamaican pepper), cloves, nutmeg, coriander seeds, bay leaves, salt and sugar etc. The result: spiced Baltic sprats aka vürtsikilud, a famous Estonian delicacy.
