Carp

Due to the small number of bones in fish, recipes with carp allow for almost all possible types of culinary processing: frying, baking, stewing, making cutlets and meatballs. Before preparing a dish from carp, the fish must be cleaned of scales, cut along the ridge, gills and entrails removed, wash and pat dry with paper towel. Then remove the fins and tail of the carp, make several cross-shaped cuts on the skin (shallow) - and you can cook the carp. If you want to get a new taste of fried carp, fry it not in vegetable oil, but in butter. The cuisine of different countries contains its own original recipes from carp In France, carp is cooked with sorrel, in Ukraine - with honey, in Austria, carp is stuffed with anchovies and served in a sauce of chopped vegetables and bacon, in Hungary - stewed with vegetables and wine, and served with croutons. Beer lovers can prepare carp in their favorite drink, adding roots and butter. Carp does not cook for long - 6-10 minutes. I would like to offer a completely unusual sweet recipe for fish: stuffed carp with gingerbread. In this case, the fish is stuffed with minced fish (no matter what kind), placed in a bowl on chopped onions with spices and herbs, salted, peppered and filled with fish broth and red wine (in equal proportions). And now the most interesting part: cut 100 g of gingerbread and put it in a bowl with fish. The carp is boiled over low heat, then placed on a dish and poured with sauce (100 g of vinegar and 50 g of sugar are added to the fish broth - all this needs to be boiled, added butter and 50 g of crushed roasted almonds). Cooking at home - creatively and with pleasure! /b
