Now I don't buy fish preserves at all. I don’t even look in their direction. And in this article I want to tell you why I refused to buy and I advise you.
I will not deny: I used to buy preserves for my family. We ate fish with boiled potatoes, made snacks and sandwiches with it. And for the salad "Herring under a fur coat" is generally a nice thing: no need to mess around with butchering fish.
It's simple, quick and convenient: you open the jar and that's it, the fish is ready to eat. But I almost never liked the taste. And later I understood why.
Recently in one TV show there was a story about preserving. And there they told how they are made. Have you ever wondered how you get boneless herring fillets in production?
If you think that they are carving by hand, you are wrong, such preserves would be very expensive, and no one would buy them.
It turns out that manufacturers treat fish with a special substance that eats away at bones. They just dissolve, and therefore it seems that they are not. That is why preserves have a weird taste.
Some manufacturers claim to use citric acid as such a bone thinner, but it is believed it's hard: try an experiment with fish and citric acid at home, and you will see that the bones remain on location. Perhaps they will soften, but not completely disappear.
That is why I use the most common herring, which I buy either in a fish store or I salt it myself. I'd rather spend more time cutting fish into fillets myself than buying preserves. This is my opinion.
Write in the comments: do you buy preserves? If not, why not?
