21.10.2019 Healthy eating

Salting is one of the most popular ways of harvesting fish. It is especially relevant in the warm season, when there are difficulties with storing fish, and if in the future it is planned to dry, dry or smoke it.

Only coarse salt is used in the process; it provides deep salting. Small envelops and quickly salts only the top layer of fish meat, located directly under the skin, without penetrating inside and without dehydrating to a sufficient extent, so the onset of rotting is inevitable.

The use of an iodized salt variety is also unacceptable; at the time of salting, iodine burns the skin of the fish, increases its temperature and leads to rapid decay.

You can salt almost all types of edible fish, and do this in several ways. The calorie content of the finished product depends on the variety and on the selected method of salting. Having averaged, the caloric content of 100 g of salted fish is 190 kcal.

Salted fish is used as an independent dish, and as an ingredient in many salads and appetizers, served on canapes and sandwiches, good as a filling when stuffing.

The chemical composition of salted fish, which contains such useful elements as fluorine, molybdenum, sulfur, is useful for the human body, but you should not abuse such a delicacy. It contains large amounts of salt.

The fish is placed in a container of a suitable size and filled with cold water and salt (10: 1). On top of the fish, oppression is established, the weight of which should be at least 15 kg.

After the salting process is completed, the fish is thoroughly washed and soaked for a couple of hours, hung in the shade in the wind, preferably head down. So excess moisture flows out through the mouth, and the fish itself dries evenly.

Sea or river fish can appear in a completely new taste role, being salted in a towel. Pieces of fish remain quite juicy, while not being wet, as in the traditional method of salting. Home-made salted fish is an ideal dish both in independent, solo sound, as well as with potatoes and sauerkraut.

You will need:

  • Fish.
  • Coarse salt.

How to cook:

Fish, in this case mullet, is cleaned of scales, tail and head are cut off. In a small individual, you can not rip your back.

Finally, the mullet is once again salted thick enough on top and wrapped in a dry towel. It is also rolled up and placed in a mold.

Tasty salted red fish is always a welcome guest on our table. It is good for slicing and for sandwiches. Beautifully decorated snacks with thin, delicious pink slices will decorate any feast. You can buy salted red fish in stores, but it costs quite a bit. Therefore, if you manage to get a fresh fish, many housewives try to pickle it yourself.

There are two ways of salting: dry and in brine. In the first case, the fish is rubbed with salt and spices, in the second case, it is poured with ready brine. Both methods have their adherents.

Two recipes for salting red fish - dry and wet - today we will consider both of these methods. But before starting the recipes, we will get acquainted with the tips and recommendations of experienced chefs:

Secrets of salting red fish

For homemade salting, it is better to use very fresh fish. It is easy to check freshness: transparent eyes without opacities, pink gills, shiny surface, absence of unpleasant odor. Thawed and then salted, it turns out watery and not so tasty.

When salting, use a mixture of salt and sugar. The latter softens the taste, and also prevents the overdrying of fish. It is also recommended to lightly grease the carcass with vegetable oil before salting. This will make the finished product softer and tastier.

In addition, when salting, you can add spices: garlic, herbs, pepper (black and allspice), lavrushka, lemon slices, etc. Experiment to your liking.

Large specimens salted for several days. A smaller fish, about a day, and cut into pieces - 8-12 hours. However, experienced cooks do not recommend eating it right away. Give her some more time to lie down and mature.

Red fish recipe at home - dry and wet

Recipe for salting red fish in brine

In brine, the fish cooks faster, but somewhat loses in taste. But this is my opinion. Many people like this particular salting method.

For a carcass weighing about 1 kg, take: a liter of water, 4 tbsp of salt, 2 tbsp. l, 2 bay leaves, 6 peas of allspice, 1 tsp black, also peas. You can still put 2-3 cloves.

Cooking:

Prepare the carcass, as we did in previous recipes. Just cut off the head and tail, and cut the fish itself along the ridge into two parts. Put tightly in a bulk container or enamel saucepan with a lid.

Boil water, add salt, spices, boil for a couple of minutes, allow to cool well, to normal home temperature. Pour the fish with brine, add lemon juice. Close the container tightly with a lid.

Leave it on for several hours at normal temperature, and then put it away in the cold for two days. Remove the finished fish from the brine, pat it dry with napkins. Put in a dry dish with a lid or wrap in cling film. Keep in the refrigerator.

A quick recipe at home in 2 hours

This recipe allows you to quickly cook spicy salted fish. It can be eaten in a couple of hours. Only, of course, it should be very fresh and not thawed.

For cooking you will need: a carcass weighing about 1 kg, 2 tablespoons of salt, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 cloves of garlic, a mixture of ground peppers, and an onion.

Cooking:

Prepare the carcass, as we did before. Cut along the ridge into two halves, remove the skin. Remove the bones with tweezers, cut the fillet into slices. Separately mix salt, sugar, pepper. Finely chop the garlic. Cut the onion into thin rings.

Pour the salt mixture into a large plate, roll the slices there, put them in a bowl, sprinkle with garlic, mix. Cover with a saucer smaller in diameter, place a load, for example, a half-liter jar of water. Leave for an hour.

Now put the slices in a jar, put onion rings on top, add vegetable oil, a little, so that only slightly covers the fish. Shake the jar, put it in the refrigerator for another hour. Then you can serve to the table.

Today we examined two methods for salting fish - dry and wet. Despite which one you choose, the fish will turn out to be much tastier than the store one. Keep it in the refrigerator for no more than 5 days. If you need longer storage, it is better to put it in the freezer.

In order to get a delicious dried fish, you need to be able to properly saline it. An important role in this process is played by brine (salt solution). If a fish for raw-salted use is prepared in artificial brine, dissolving a certain amount of salt in water, then natural brine is used for salting fish with subsequent drying, when the salt interlayed by salt releases moisture from it by pressing and salt directly "in its own juice."

Soaking fish

  1. Sort the fish by size before starting this activity. So it will be more convenient for you to soak it.
  2. Soak large fish (bream, pike, ide) for 1.5 days, changing the water three times, the calculation of which is 5 liters per 2 kg of fish. Water should be cold, and soaking should take place in a cool, dark place. In this case, the pan or bucket should not be kept tightly closed. Soak small fish (crucian carp, dace, chebak, perch) soak for 1 day, changing the water 2 times.
  3. At the end of the soaking, drain the water and let the fish flow well. Now you can do the drying.
Drying or drying fish
For proper drying, you will need a closed, well-ventilated warm room, eliminating the presence of insects. Otherwise, your delicacy will be dragged by cats or birds, or - even worse - it will be hopelessly spoiled by flies. If you don’t have such an opportunity for drying, you can dry the fish outdoors, having prepared for these purposes special frames in the form of folding suitcases and covered with gauze. This will allow you to avoid both contact of dried fish with flies, and its possible extinction.
  1. Pull a tight rope. Prepare hooks for hanging. They can also be made independently from hard wire.
  2. Hang the fish on a rope, passing the tips of the hooks through the eye or upper lip.
  3. If drying occurs outdoors, close the fish in gauze frames.
  4. In case of rain, take timely measures, covering the frames with a plastic cloth and removing it immediately after rainfall so that the fish does not block.
  5. The drying time depends on the addictions of the host. On average, 1-2 sunny days are enough for small fish; whereas for larger specimens it may take 3-4 days.
Advice for those who plan to salt a large number of fish for subsequent drying: do not soak all the salting at once for drying. Fish dried in large quantities will dry up sooner or later and lose both their pleasant taste and appetizing appearance. Dry as much as you plan to consume within 1-2 weeks. The rest of the salting will retain all its excellent qualities, continuing to be stored under oppression in your reliable cellar!

How do we salt red fish at home

First, cooking, so you can immediately appreciate the simplicity and clarity of the recipe. And after the instructions with the photo, we will tell you how to choose a good red fish, and explain the secrets of success.

We need:

  • Pink salmon (salmon, chum) - 500-600 grams
  • Salt (large) - 1 tbsp. a spoon
  • Sugar - 1 tbsp. a spoon
  • Patience to wait for the process of salting - from 1 to 3 days

How do we cook.

We wash the fresh carcass of pink salmon without scales in cold water under a tap. We dry with napkins and arm ourselves with a convenient knife.

When cleaning, our task is to get the fillet on a skin without bones.
  We cut along the back from the head (!) Along the ridge - so that one part of the fish remains with the spine. We cut off the head with gills and proceed to the selection of bones. Often, the fillet is quite soft - we release it from the bones, picking up each rib with our fingers. If it fails, tweezers come to the rescue.



We turn the part with the spine with the skin up and separate the fillet from the spine, starting to cut from the tail (!). Where to start the movement is an important nuance, it is shown large in the photo below. We move smoothly so that the knife does not slip, does not cut the pulp across, does not pierce the skin.


As a result of simple manipulations at home, we get an excellent filet on the skin - no worse than store packaging.


  Salting is even easier than cleaning! Our choice is the dry method (without marinade), where only sugar and salt are needed in equal proportions. In this recipe - 1 tbsp. spoon for 0.5-0.6 kg of fish. So we get a juicy and beautiful fish flesh - without loss of color and nutrients.

Salting Algorithm:

  • Filet in a glass bowl - Mix salt + sugar - Evenly and plentifully distribute the mixture into fish pieces (sprinkle and smooth with fingers on both sides of the filet) - Cover and put in the refrigerator.

Important! After standing for a while, the fish will give juice, drain it from the container so that the fillet retains elasticity.

Pickle from 1 to 3 days - for the love of salty.



If you have distrust, and suddenly do not spill quickly, calm down doubts by putting a little oppression on the product (a saucer in size and something heavy on top).

As you can see, the process fit in a few lines. Now only patience is to wait for the fillet spilling. Of course, you can add ground spices and chopped garlic to the pickling mixture, or shift the fish in lemon slices. But even in ours - the simplest! - A recipe with a photo is inevitable an excellent result.

How long to salt red fish? We love salted: its salting takes 1-1.5 days. If you like the average ambassador - 2 days, strong - 3 days (in the store we often encounter strong). For more than 3 days, salting fish is pointless, it will become ultra salty on the verge of bitterness.

It is very lucky for those who know how to salt red fish at home, because we ourselves can vary the degree of salting. Join in a profitable culinary freedom!

Secrets of Success

Is it so important that salted glassware is glass?

Yes, only glass. Putting fish in a metal dish, it is easy to get an iron flavor.

A few words about the nuances of storing salty red fish:

  • As soon as we decided to stop pickling, drain the juice, thoroughly blot the filet with napkins and separate it from the skin. Cut into pieces, put in a bowl with a tight fitting lid and put in the refrigerator.

How to separate the meat from the skin?

We arm ourselves with a knife with a wide blade, put the fillet with the skin down and make long movements with the knife - with gentle pressure forward, separating the flesh from the skin, guiding the knife at a slight angle.

I advise you to take note of the best and most proven recipes for salting fish at home. Anyone close will try, everyone will beg for a recipe. Every housewife must have this proven recipe in her culinary piggy bank. Help yourself!
