In order for fried fish to be called exemplary without any doubt, it must have a delicious crust of a luxurious golden color.
The result does not always meet our expectations.
What tricks will help you cook fish with a crust
Proper preparation or selection of product
If you are lucky enough to buy fresh fish, you will not have to spend a long time on properly defrosting the product. But this option can be called extremely rare.
But even frozen fish can surprise you with its quality if you defrost it correctly. The main thing is to give up haste and let the product get rid of the ice on its own.
Drying
If the fish is wet, it is extremely difficult to cook it properly. In most cases, fish that is too wet will taste like boiled fish.
Therefore, we get rid of the water using paper towels.
Salt
Some people think that salt should not be used before frying, as the product may fall apart. But this is not quite the right approach.
On the contrary, using salt correctly will allow the crust to form.
To do this, ten minutes before breading and frying, the product is thoroughly treated with salt.
