The recipe for salted pink salmon "under salmon" dry method and in brine. Lightly salted pink salmon: the best options for cooking at home - how to pickle pink salmon for salmon

30.09.2019 Salads

Salted pink salmon is a very common, inexpensive and healthy product. It contains almost all vitamins and useful elements: vitamin PP (nicotinic acid), which improves the activity of the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system, vitamin B12, sodium, calcium, fluorine, sulfur, phosphorus, iodine, as well as polyunsaturated fatty acid omega- 3. Experts recommend eating pink salmon meat regularly.

Salted pink salmon is especially good, since during cooking a significant part of the nutrients (like all red fish) evaporates. Therefore, many people prefer lightly salted pink salmon - both industrial and home salted.

When buying salted pink salmon in a store, there is a possibility of using dangerous E additives (see), the interaction of which leads to the formation of the strongest conservative poison - formaldehyde, but more often these additives are found in industrially salted herring, but do not at all exclude the use in the preparation of others species of fish. In this regard it is better to buy fish yourself and salt it at home.

I mention salmon in the title of the article. It is not easy to multiply the properties of a given recipe. I stopped buying salmon and trout altogether and now I am content with only pink salmon or coho salmon. The fact is that the expensive fish species of the salmon family (trout and salmon) sold today are a rather dangerous product, although their taste is significantly superior to that of dry pink salmon.

Salmon and trout are mainly supplied to store shelves from special salmon farms (they are also called cage salmon, which is different from salmon). It is difficult for an inexperienced buyer to distinguish wild salmon from farm-raised fish.

In Norway, China and Vietnam, the cultivation of salmon in a cage or on a farm is extremely common - it is a big serious business. And where business, the interests and health of consumers, as a rule, practically do not matter. Maximum profit is the main task.

The fats of such fish are obtained from artificial feed, its flesh is sugary in taste, lumpy. This is not surprising - after all, the fish in the cage moves little, does not fight for survival, therefore its muscle mass is weak and even its fins are almost atrophied as unnecessary.

Artificial feed dramatically changes the composition of cage salmon... They add synthetic vitamins and pigments to make the fish meat red and antibiotics to keep the fish from getting sick. Supplements, from which fish grow rapidly, also lead to weight gain in the person consuming it for food.

The dye canthaxanthin, which is added to food, is already banned in Europe and the United States due to its accumulation in the retina and a serious disease that leads to visual impairment. If canthaxanthin got into the retina from the skin, then from the stomach it also has the ability to reach the retina. Dangerous canthaxanthin used on fish farms, as it is half the price of natural astaxanthin pigment.

In 2006, Russia had a temporary ban on the sale of Norwegian farmed salmon due to the discovery of high toxic heavy metals in it.

You don't want to spend a lot of money on the purchase of such a "healthy" fish, risking harm to your body, and i decided to buy my own pink salmon instead of salmon, which, due to its availability, abundance and low cost, is caught in the Far East from its native ocean spaces, and is not grown artificially on farms.

Finally, let's start salting pink salmon.

How to salt pink salmon

Ingredients :

  • frozen pink salmon
  • salt
  • water
  • vegetable oil optional

Preparation:

1. Before salting, separate the fish fillet from the bones.

For salting and not only it is better to take whole fish: it does not undergo any preliminary processing and is sold completely in the form in which it was caught. When buying fillets, they are usually soaked in phosphates and become more porous and absorb water, leading to weight gain.

Frozen pink salmon is taken in order to defrost it a little, to remove the skin from the fish. This is done quite easily: you just need to cut off the head and lightly pick up the skin at the "cut" - it is removed with a "stocking" from the frozen carcass.

In the same frostbitten state, the bones and ridge are also easily and conveniently separated.

3. Prepare a solution for salting pink salmon. Put 4-5 tbsp in 1 liter of cooled boiled water. large table salt (I advise you to always use only this salt - see) and stir it well until it is completely dissolved.

Put the pink salmon fillet in the solution and leave for 15 to 30 minutes. The aging time of pink salmon in brine depends on your taste. I love lightly salted fish and 20 minutes is enough for me, but my daughter likes a little more salted fish, aged for 30 minutes. Although the difference in salinity is not big.


4.After we put the fillets on a paper towel or napkins, let the solution soak a little and then put the salted pink salmon in a jar or container, adding a small amount of vegetable oil between the layers.

It's no secret that lovers of tasty and satisfying food, fish dishes are singled out as a separate article in their diet. But already among fish dishes, red fish delicacies stand out separately. In Russia, the most popular are sandwiches and canapes using salmon caviar and meat. Making a sandwich at home always turns out quickly and tasty; this does not require special dishes, cooking, frying, etc., just bread and fish. But if you carefully study the preferences of people, then most of the variety of red fish breeds will choose salmon. Why is salmon so popular with gourmets? Everything is very simple. The meat of this fish, in addition to a delicate and appetizing pink color, has a pleasant buttery taste and texture.

Few people know that you can cook ordinary pink salmon in such a way that it will be impossible to distinguish it from salmon. But first of all, let's consider how these two species of red fish differ. First of all, it is the habitat in the wild. Salmon is found in the North Atlantic Ocean, the Barents Sea, and is also found in some northern lakes in Norway, Russia and Finland. Pink salmon lives in the waters of the Pacific Ocean, in the eastern part of the coastal waters of the Arctic Ocean, and spawns in the fresh waters of the upper reaches of rivers flowing into these oceans.

Salmon and pink salmon also differ in size and weight. Salmon are much larger, average representatives of this genus can reach one and a half meters in length and weigh about forty to fifty kilograms. Pink salmon is not so "huge", rather modest. Large representatives reach seventy centimeters in length and weigh from two to five kilograms.

It is safe to say that cooking with these fish species is quite popular. Meat and salmon and pink salmon are used in salads, soups, canned food, cold snacks. There are also many recipes for salting these fish species.


Salmon meat is also different from pink salmon meat. Salmon has a pleasant pink-reddish color with white veins. It is in the veins that the largest amount of fat is concentrated. When cooked, the meat retains its juiciness and looks very appetizing. Pink salmon meat has a more orange hue without white veins, and is drier and friable in taste. Accordingly, the price for salmon is almost twice as high as for pink salmon.

But it doesn't matter! A folk trick will come to the rescue. There is such a dish - pink salmon for salmon. How to pickle pink salmon so that it is indistinguishable from salmon by its taste? Salmon meat has a more viscous structure, it is denser and more elastic. It is quite possible to salt pink salmon and give it an equally attractive look and taste. In short, salt the pink salmon, we get a kick-ass salmon.

Pink salmon for salmon recipe:

First you need to cook the fish, peel and separate the fillets. To do this, it is better to freeze pink salmon, it is easier to cut frozen meat into slices. Do not make them too thick, maximum three centimeters.

Then you need to prepare the brine. It must be sufficiently saturated, otherwise it so happens that salted pink salmon is obtained. For one glass of cold boiled water, five to six tablespoons of salt. One kilogram of fish needs about 1.3 liters of brine.

Keep the meat in the brine for five to ten minutes. Salted pink salmon is soaked with a napkin or towel, laid out on a plate and poured with vegetable oil, preferably odorless, and put into the refrigerator for thirty to forty minutes. It turned out that during the time spent in the refrigerator, the fish was saturated with salt and oil and acquired the necessary taste.

Best of all, fish salted in this way is suitable for making delicious sandwiches and canapes. Spread a thin layer of natural butter on white bread, and put fish slices on top. Don't forget to cut the lemon or lime wedges. To decorate the dish, you can use imagination and creativity so that the resulting fish looks more appetizing on the table. Experiment lovers can add spices to the brine.

I would like to note that today salmon is grown on fish farms, where special dyes are added to the fish feed so that the meat looks more attractive when sold. Pink salmon is not bred in captivity and, accordingly, the meat is much cleaner ecologically. The price criterion is also on the side of pink salmon. Therefore, if there is a strong desire to taste delicious fish, then you should not spend money, but after spending a little time, get a tasty and healthy dish, such as "salmon salmon under salmon".
Red fish cold snacks are always in demand on any table. Perfectly go with wine drinks and beer. Useful tips for decorating a simple dish can be found on the Internet.

Pink salmon is not very expensive, but very useful fish in all respects. Pink salmon meat contains a whole complex of microelements that have a beneficial effect on human health. These include iodine, fluoride, calcium, sulfur and other elements that improve the functioning of the digestive system, the brain, as well as the heart and blood vessels. If the fish is improperly cooked, then most of the components will simply evaporate. Most of all nutrients remain if the pink salmon is not subjected to heat treatment. In this regard, the most suitable option for its preparation is salting.

Nowadays, most housewives do this on their own, since you don't really have to rely on a purchased high-quality product. Very often people speak out about low-quality pink salmon purchased in stores. Basically, this is an expired fish product that can seriously affect human health.

Pink salmon meat is suitable for use in various dishes: it can be cooked into soup, it can be salted, grilled, added to salads or eaten raw. Slicing red fish is always one of the components of the festive table. As a rule, the presence of red fish on the table indicates the level of the family's well-being and its great taste.

The recipe for such a preparation is very simple and any housewife can master it. This recipe does not involve the use of sugar, therefore, in a very short time, lean pink salmon turns into a dish that can be eaten.

For cooking you will need:

  • 1 kg of pink salmon fillet.
  • 1.3 liters of boiled water.
  • 5 tablespoons of salt.
  • Black peppercorns.

First you need to cut the fillet into suitable pieces. Then proceed to the preparation of the brine. To do this, take already cooled, but boiled water and dissolve salt in it, stirring the composition regularly. After that, in this brine, for about 10 minutes, pieces of fish are placed. After this time, the fish pieces are removed from the brine and dried with a paper towel.

At the next stage, the same pieces of pink salmon are neatly stacked in layers in a suitable dish. At the same time, each layer is watered with vegetable oil. The final stage is placing the fish in the refrigerator for about half an hour. After this time, salted in this way pink salmon can be served to the table, along with herbs, onions and lemon.

Why not salmon, but pink salmon?

Naturally, salmon, if cooked in this way and served at the festive table, will cause a stir, since it is tastier than pink salmon. But there is one "but" here that must always be taken into account. The thing is that salmon, as a very tasty fish, is grown artificially in some Western countries, using genetically modified chemical compounds. In addition to the fact that salmon is much more expensive than pink salmon, it can be dangerous to human health.

As for pink salmon, few people grow it artificially. Therefore, it is almost impossible to buy artificial pink salmon. If pink salmon is available for sale, then it is most likely a fish caught in the vastness of the ocean, and not on some farm located in one of the countries of America.

How to prepare fish for salting?

It is very important to properly prepare the fish for the salting process. Better, of course, if it is fresh fish, but it can be purchased only in those places where they are engaged in fishing. Most likely, it will be a freshly frozen carcass, which must be defrosted, and, moreover, correctly. You should never force this process and allow the fish to defrost naturally in the refrigerator. It is necessary to give the opportunity for all the water to go away, after which it is cut and washed under running water. When cleaning fish, care should be taken not to leave bones in the meat.

Pink salmon fillets should be soft. To accurately calculate the required amount of salt, it is advisable to weigh the fillets. It is advisable to also cut off the head with fins and tail. The fillet is cut into pieces, no more than one and a half centimeters thick, so that the meat is well saturated with the brine with spices.
