To regale yourself and loved ones with fish, especially on holidays, is a holy cause. Probably every family has a favorite type of fish. Our family is very fond of pink salmon. This fish is versatile in cooking.

Pink salmon can be stewed, fried, salted, pickled... In any form, the fish will be extremely tasty. However, now we are not talking about cooking recipes, but about choosing when buying. And it's not about the freshness of the fish. The point is in the surprise that you can get by carefully choosing a product when buying.


So, it is best to choose, of course, if possible, a female. Not gutted lady fish can please a happy buyer with a real delicacy, caviar in the belly. A surprise can pull up to 200 grams, and this is a really nice gift.


To find a female fish, you need to know several signs of difference. There is nothing supernatural in this matter. Distinguishing a male from a female can be quite simple. The main thing is to know how. Well, armed with knowledge, you can already go to the store.

The first difference between a female and a male is in color. Males are much brighter, and females are grayish, inconspicuous. Next, you should pay attention to the head of the fish. Females have much wider noses. But the jaws, on the contrary, are smaller, smoother and more accurate.

In males, the jaws are like those of real predators, pronounced. The situation is approximately the same with the teeth. Females are not at all toothed. On the other hand, males have large, very noticeable teeth.


Another pronounced feature is the hump on the back of the males. True, this difference appears only during spawning. So it is unlikely that you will be able to see this on the counter. Although who knows, maybe it is you who will get such a handsome male. By the way, it is because of this hump that the fish got its name.


The very last sign of the presence of caviar in the abdomen will be the abdomen itself. When you press on the fish, it will be possible to understand whether there is something dense in the abdomen or not.

If there is a feeling of density, then caviar will almost certainly be. In order not to be mistaken with the feeling, you need to test yourself by trying a few fish by pressing. It will be immediately clear what it is about.


That's all. There is nothing difficult in making the right choice. Of course, it should be noted that males are most often sold not gutted. Fish suppliers know their business well. However, females with caviar come across in spite of everything. You just need to be more careful when choosing.
