Now I only clean fish this way! Granny showed how to quickly clean fish without dirt and scales

At the beginning of autumn I was visiting my grandmother in the village. Every time I come to her, I can't help but go fishing. There is a huge pond near her house, in which there have always been a lot of fish, so it’s simply a sin not to take this opportunity and not to throw fishing rods in this place. I remember when I was little, there was nowhere to sit on the pond, because fishermen from all the nearby villages constantly gathered there. Now the rows have thinned, as many have moved to the city (especially young people) and there is an opportunity to enjoy fishing in complete silence.

Either the weather was not flying, or the skill was not the same, but this time I was not so lucky as before (I used to catch a couple of buckets of fish here in 3-4 hours). And that day I managed to catch only a few carp. Nevertheless, they turned out to be quite decent, 400-500 grams.

Arriving home with my catch, I decided to peel and fry the fish while my grandmother was resting in her room. He took a knife and began to get rid of the scales, putting the fish in the sink. I never liked this activity, because the scales fly in different directions, polluting everything around. And the whole process takes a lot of time.

Not having time to clean the first fish, my grandmother came into the kitchen and, seeing what I was doing, she said: "Don't rush, put your catch in the freezer for now and then I'll show you, clean the fish as quickly and without dirt as possible. And you will teach your wife. "

An hour later, grandmother took the fish out of the freezer and got down to business. In the beginning, she separated the head from the fish.

Then I set the fish upright and cut off its back with a thin layer. Then she did exactly the same operation with the abdomen (here the main thing is that the knife was sharp).

After that, granny took out all the insides of the fish with one movement. They are frozen, so they come out in one piece and, most importantly, there is no dirt on the table.

Naturally, she also immediately separated the ponytail and then the fun began!

Granny got rid of the scales with a very simple movement. To do this, with the help of a knife, she forged the skin and, grasping the edge, removed it along with all the scales.

As a result, she had a clean fish fillet and no dirt on the table! So, live and learn! I really liked this method and since then I have been cleaning fish only in this way. This method is especially useful for cleaning fish with very small scales (for example, perch or tench).
