Fish is a tasty and healthy product. But no one likes the cleaning process.
The smell remains on your hands, cutting board, and the scales usually fly all over the kitchen. But if you know a few simple life hacks, this process will no longer be a problem.
As experienced housewives note, the cutting board should first be wrapped in cling film, and gloves should be put on your hands.
First, the fish must be rinsed under strong, cold water.
You also need to stock up on lemon or a small amount of vinegar, which will help get rid of the fishy smell later.
After this, you can start cleaning.
Cleaning with boiling water
In this case, the scales will come off quickly and easily. But it is important not to overdo it.
The product should be placed in a saucepan and filled with boiling water so that the water completely covers the fish, and then it should be dipped in cold water. Then you can start cleaning.
This method is suitable for small fish.
Cleaning in water
To begin, the main product needs to be soaked in water for 15 minutes, and then you need to start cleaning it directly in the pan.
This option is convenient because the scales fall directly into the water and do not scatter around the kitchen.
Cleaning with a grater
Not everyone knows that the sharpest side of the grater is ideal for this procedure.
The grater should be moved from the tail to the head. The scales remain on the grater.
