Directions

  1. Ideally, a special fish tank with a removable basket is used. ≈ 3 min
  2. Alternatively, you can place a plate upside down in a large, ordinary pot. ≈ 3 min
  3. Pour each plate, pour enough water so that it reaches the edge of the plate, without completely covering it. ≈ 3 min
  4. (In the pot, add just enough water so that it doesn’t overflow the basket.) Let the water come to a boil.
  5. Remove the skin and bones from the fish, then the brine. ≈ 3 min
  6. Place the fish in a dishcloth and set it on the plate inside the pot. ≈ 3 min
  7. Let it simmer until the fish is cooked through.
  8. The cooking time should be between 15 and 20 minutes.
