Many housewives will be happy to prepare fresh river fish, as it turns out extremely tasty.
However, this product has one drawback - the presence of a quite noticeable unpleasant odor, which is caused by the peculiarities of the habitat of the river inhabitant.
For the same reason, the fish may not have the most pleasant taste. Therefore, the fish must be properly prepared before direct heat treatment.
How to remove unpleasant fish smell
Special marinade
If the smell of mud is too strong, then it is worth trying the most reliable method. To do this, add the same amount of vinegar to the water, add chopped onions and bay leaves.
Afterwards, we add the fish itself to this mixture. After a couple of hours, there will be no trace of the mud aroma.
Lemon
Citrus fruit will help to eliminate unpleasant odor easily and simply. To do this, clean the fish from its entrails and carefully treat it with a slice of lemon.
This will not only eliminate the unpleasant smell, but will also make the taste of the fish brighter.
