Good afternoon, I offer you an interesting recipe in my opinion. How to make red fish from ordinary herring
. That even and not distinguish.
In every family at least once a week buy salted fish. As a rule – it is ready herring because it is the most affordable.

But you can disguise herring under red fish so that no one can tell the difference.
Just one little trick.
You’ll need an ordinary herring. And make a marinade with a secret.
It will take only 2 – 3 hours, and instead of a simple herring taste will get the taste of tender red fish, even by color can not be distinguished.
Herring wash, clean and gut, separate the fillet and well choose small bones
.

Cut the fillets in half and dry on a paper towel. Mix cognac and soy sauce, sprinkle each piece of fish on both sides and let soak for 15-20 minutes. Grate the lemon zest on a fine grater or chop with a blender. Mix sugar, salt, cardamom and lemon zest in a dish. Roll the fish pieces in this mixture, put them in a food container, cover loosely and put them in the refrigerator for 2 – 3 hours.
It took:
- Herring fresh or fresh-frozen – 2 pcs
- Sugar – 0,5 tablespoon.
- Salt – 2 tablespoons.
- Zest of one lemon.
- Cardamom – on the tip of a knife.
- Brandy – 1 teaspoon.
- Soy sauce – 1 teaspoon.
Fish is ready!

The brandy and soy sauce gave the color to the red fish, and the spices and lemon zest made the taste incredibly tender and delicious.
The subtle trick succeeded!
