Solomon Gundy is a spicy Jamaican pickled (salted) fish pâté, usually served with crackers as an appetizer or hors d’oeuvre.

The term is originally from the French word "salmigondis", which refers to a disparate assembly of things, ideas, or people forming an incoherent whole (a hodgepodge).

[1] The pâté is usually made with smoked and salted red herring, but other fish such as mackerel and shad are used sometimes.

[2] The fish is soaked or boiled in water to remove excess salt, and then deboned, minced or puréed until smooth.

It is made with native scotch bonnet peppers and allspice, onion, scallion, vinegar, sugar and other herbs or seasonings.
