How to cook delicious, nutritious, healthy fish food? First, the fish needs to be processed, prepared for heat treatment. It will seem strange to a person who is not privy to the secrets of fish cuisine that the taste of a future dish is 50% dependent on compliance with the rules for pre-treatment of products.
The quality of home-cooked dishes also largely depends on the correct selection of kitchen utensils and utensils. You need to know that you can cook and bake fish only in enamel or earthenware. Aluminum and other metal pots and pans (except cast-iron black ones) give the fish an unpleasant gray color and significantly worsen the taste. In addition, the trace elements contained in the fish are destroyed.
Fish intended for food should be handled according to the following rules of hygiene: 1. Clean containers should be used. Fish should not come into contact with fuels and lubricants, various oils, spoiling fish or any other contaminated items and spoiled products.
3. If you do not immediately start cooking fish, after gutting and washing it should not be cut into small pieces or fillets, but rather left whole. The smaller the cuts, the more unprotected meat, easily exposed to bacteria and spoilage.
4. To wash the fish, you need clean water, preferably running water. Since some of the nutrients dissolve in the water and the fish becomes less tasty, it should not be kept in water for a long time. But, on the other hand, it is advisable to rinse the fish more thoroughly and longer, thereby reducing the risk of spoilage.
Primary processing of fish - thawing of frozen fish, its release from contamination and inedible parts, cleaning from scales, separation from fish of parts that have a reduced nutritional value (head, fins, tail), gutting; flattening or giving the fish sizes and shapes that correspond to the type of culinary product.
Thawing Frozen fish is thawed before cutting. Fish with a bone skeleton is placed in a bowl, poured with cold water. During thawing in water, the fish loses a certain amount of mineral salts and organic substances contained in it. To reduce these losses, a small amount of salt is added to the water. So that the fish does not freeze, it is mixed during thawing.
Small fish weighing up to 1 kg thaw in 1.52 hours, large fish in 34 hours. Cod and haddock are thawed slightly to make them easier to process. Fish with a cartilaginous skeleton is thawed in air at room temperature for 610 hours. Cod and perch fillets are thawed in air in a cold room to avoid rapid moisture and loss of nutrients.
Cleaning from scales The fish is scraped with a knife or a special scraper, or scraped with a sharp thin knife, holding it horizontally and slightly raising the tip. Fish with small, tight-fitting scales, such as perch, should be placed in boiling water for a few seconds and then scraped off. They scrape carp, crucian carp, bream, perch, roach. Pike, pike perch, cod are scraped with a sharp knife.
Evisceration 1. With a knife: or with scissors, cut the belly from the caudal fin to the head, release the insides with your hand and remove. Discard the gallbladder, digestive organs and swim bladder (edible parts of offal, set aside). Then cut off the gills, fins, remove the eyes. Two methods are recommended.
2. Cut the meat, at the gills to the vertebral bone, break the head at the base of the vertebral bone and take out the insides with it. Discard the inedible parts of the giblets, remove the eyes and gills, cut off the tail and fins. After gutting, the fish must be thoroughly washed. Cutting fish with a bone skeleton. Fish is cut in two ways: with bones and skin and filleted. When processing, the fish's right hand, and the handle of the knife must be dry.
When cutting fish, you should strive not to damage the meat. Bacteria easily penetrate through damaged areas. The skin of the fish and the surface of the peritoneum form a protective shell. You should especially try not to pierce or cut the intestines so that its contents do not enter the abdominal cavity. Blood and mucus covering the fish with adhering dirt are washed off. Later, washing the carcass must be repeated. Dried blood under the spine is carefully removed, as it gives an unpleasant aftertaste and contributes to spoilage of the fish.
Practical methods for cutting fish Whatever way you are going to cook the fish - whole, boneless, filleted or cut into pieces - first of all it must be cleaned and butchered. Fish that are netted in deep waters are gutted before they reach shore. Fish caught close to the shore or in fresh waters are sold ungutted. In most cases, the giblets of such fish must be removed, and the fins and scales removed.
Removal of fins This operation is performed mainly for aesthetic reasons. A fish that should be served whole looks neater and more attractive if its fins and tail are removed. The dorsal and other large fins are firmly attached to the skeleton of the fish. It is more convenient to separate them with large scissors. If you are cooking the whole fish, it is easier to remove the fins with your fingers after the fish is cooked.
Removing the Fins To remove the fins, place the fish on a cutting board. Cut off the dorsal fin with scissors, making cutting movements towards the tail. If you are going to remove bones, then the dorsal fin is cut off completely. Then insert the point of the knife into the bone under the fin that connects the fin to the body of the fish, and remove the fin and bones using the knife as a lever. Finally, cut off the pectoral, ventral and anal fins.
Removing scales All fish, except for eels and sharks, are covered with scales. In many species of fish, the scales are small and are an integral part of the skin. Others (carp, mullet) have broad and bony scales. However, it adheres loosely to the skin and can be scraped off with a knife blade, a special serrated blade, or a fish scaler. Fish with firmly attached scales (perch, tench) are recommended to be immersed in boiling water for a moment, after which the scales can be easily removed.
When the recipe calls for the fish's head to be removed, cut off the head just behind the gill openings. The photo shows the preparation of herring to separate the meat from the bones before frying. Using large scissors or a sharp knife, cut through the abdomen to the anus (left photo). Take out the insides (photo on the right). Run the knife along both sides of the ridge to remove blood buildup. Rinse the fish in cold water. gutting fish
If you are going to cook the whole fish, either stuff it or make a whole fish aspic, then it is preferable to gut it through the gills to keep the shape of the fish. To clean flat fish whose entrails occupy a small area directly below the gills. Just make a small incision behind the gills and pull out the innards. gutting fish
Removing the Skin from a Flat Fish Place the fish on a cutting board, dark side up. With a sharp knife, cut the skin where the body meets the tail (left photo). With a knife blade or fingernails, start by cutting the free end off the meat until you can get a firm grip on it.
Removing the Skin from a Flat Fish Grasp the free end of the skin with one hand, with the other press the tail using a paper towel to keep your fingers from slipping. With force, pull the skin towards the head of the fish. When you reach the jaws, turn the fish to the other side and, holding it by the head, continue to tighten the skin until you free the tail.
Skinning flat fish Flat fish that will be cooked whole should only be skinned on the dark, upper side, as the white skin on the underside helps keep the fish whole during the cooking process. Round fish or large flat fish such as turbot are easier to remove from the skin after they are cooked or after filleting.
Removing bones for filleting Almost any fish can be filleted, but fish with a pronounced bone structure, such as flatfish, will give the best results. To separate the meat from the bones, you will need a knife with a long, sharp blade that is flexible enough to slide over the bones of the fish. The basic principle of filleting is the same no matter what kind of fish you are dealing with.
Filleting Flat Fish Place the skinned fish on a cutting board with the tail facing you. With the tip of a sharp flexible knife, cut the fish along the center along the spine from head to tail. Insert the blade of the knife at a slight angle between the end of the fillet, which is closer to the head, and the ribs. Holding the fillet with one hand and making small cuts, separate the meat from the ribs near the head.
Filleting the fish Cut the fillet that is on the right hand. If the fish was caught during the spawning period, there may be a bag of orange caviar under the right fillet. Caviar can be saved for fish stock, or it can be served on its own as a delicacy in boiled or fried form.
Filleting flat fish When the fillets are removed from the top of the fish, turn the fish over and repeat the same operation on the bottom. You will end up with four fillets and a clean skeleton. Save the skeleton to use it when making fish broth.
Filleting round fish Lay the cleaned fish on one side, with the tail towards you. Holding the fish firmly with one hand, use a knife to separate the fish along the spine from head to tail, cutting deep enough to expose the spine.
Filleting Round Fish Separate the fillet from the head by cutting the spine just behind the gills. Holding the head of the fillet, insert a knife between the fillet and the ribs. With the blade of the knife parallel to the ribs, cut the fillet all the way through using short cutting motions.
Filleting round fish Holding the fish by the spinal column now on the surface, separate the lower fillet from the ribs with the plane of the knife. If you fillet fish with a small tender skeleton (for example, herring), some bones may remain in the meat. Carefully pry them out with your fingers or tweezers.
Filleting a Round Fish Place the fillet on the skin side down and cut off about one centimeter of meat from the skin near the tail. Pressing this skin with your fingers, insert the knife under the meat at a slight angle and, cutting with short strokes away from you, separate the fillet from the skin. Repeat with another piece.
Filleting round fish Prepare fillet dishes as soon as possible after they have been cooked. Fillet pieces that are not protected by the skin dry out quickly in the air. For the same reason, you should not grill fillets. It should be carefully fried in oil or briefly boiled in fish broth or sauce. The fillet is very tasty, fried in whipped dough or baked in sauce.
Signs of fish freshness have long been known: 1. Bright red gills. If the blood of the fish is released, then the color of the gills is quite light. The gills of frozen fish are grey, with a reddish tint. 2. A clean and not particularly strong smell, despite the fact that each type of fish has its own specific smell to some extent, besides, it is different for sea and lake fish. 3. Light and somewhat bulging eyes.
4. Elastic to the touch meat. When pressed, it does not leave dents. The meat is well kept on the spine. 5. Bright coloration and shiny scales. The degree of brightness of the color largely depends on the shelf life of the fish, as well as on whether it was stored raw or dry, wrinkled or not. When frozen, the color of the fish fades. 6. An even layer of mucus covering the entire skin. The walls of the abdominal cavity and the insides of whole fish should be checked, as well as the scales and color of the meat in the spine area for signs of spoilage.
Gradually appearing signs of spoilage of fish: 1. The beautiful, bright red color of the gills (see above for possible deviations) disappears, acquiring brown, gray and green shades. The gills are covered with mucus, and an unpleasant odor comes from them. The color of the gills of fish that have fallen asleep in the water is rather light from the very beginning.
2. The smell of fish is getting stronger and more unpleasant. 3. The eyes of the fish become cloudy and sunken, gray in color. The degree of cloudiness of the eyes indicates the stage of deterioration of the fish. 4. The elasticity of fish meat gradually disappears. When pressed, it leaves a slowly disappearing trace. The meat is separated from the spine. 5. Bright color fades, especially in lake fish.
Boiling When cooking, foods are heated in water, broth, milk or steam. The temperature of the liquid and the product during cooking in ordinary dishes does not exceed 100°C. The use of higher temperatures greatly speeds up the cooking process. The ratio between the amount of product and the amount of liquid during cooking is different. Cooking with a small amount of liquid, when the liquid does not completely cover the product, is called poaching, and poaching the product with spices and seasonings is called stewing.
Stew and stew foods in a sealed container. When steaming, the product is placed on the grate so that the water does not come into contact with the product. The dishes are covered with a lid and the water in it is boiled - the resulting steam boils the product. Before cooking, you can pour over minced fish with boiling water. This method is called blanching.
Hot Hot. When frying, foods are heated without adding liquid (water, broth, milk), but with more or less fat. In culinary practice, several types of frying are used, differing from one another in the way heat is transferred to the fried product.
In the oven, the product is fried from all sides at once. Its surface, not in contact with the bottom of the dish, is fried due to the heat that is radiated by the heated walls. This technique is called baking. When frying in a large amount of fat, the product is completely immersed in fat heated to 160-180°C. Hot fat, enveloping the product, creates good heat transfer conditions and ensures uniform crust formation on the entire surface of the product.
Cooking meat reaches 40%, roasting - 37%. In fish, uvarka and uvarka make up 18–20%. Fish of various species during poaching in portions loses soluble substances on average about 1.5% of their weight. Along with weight reduction, during heat treatment, the consistency of meat and fish changes. Raw foods, when punctured with a needle, show noticeable resistance. In products brought to readiness by heat treatment, the needle enters freely. Finished products are easy to cut and chew.
Disassemble the greens, remove the wilted twigs, rinse thoroughly in cold water. Set aside a few stems to decorate the dish. Finely chop the rest of the greens. To give the dish a spicier taste, you can add crushed or finely chopped garlic clove.
Preparation of the dish At the bottom of the baking dish (it is best to use not a metal, but a ceramic form or a fire-resistant glass form) put a bay leaf, then tightly, circle to circle, lay half of the chopped potatoes. Salt lightly. Put half of the prepared carrots and onions on top. Lay half of the chopped tomato and greens in the next layer.
Rinse the pike perch fillet thoroughly in cold water, dry with a paper or linen towel and cut into pieces 5 cm wide. Check that all bones and fins have been removed. And if not, then carefully remove with a sharp knife.
Place pieces of pike perch on vegetables so that when serving the finished dish, portions are approximately equal. Next, vegetables are placed on the fish, layer by layer in reverse order - tomatoes and herbs, carrots and onions. The topmost layer is tightly packed, circle to circle, potatoes. Since potatoes take the longest time to cook in this dish, they should be lightly rubbed with salt.
Cooking Fry the flour in a frying pan until golden brown. Cheese grate on a coarse grater. Pour flour into sour cream or cream, add half of the grated cheese. Salt, given that the potatoes are already salted, pepper to taste. To stir thoroughly.
