Homemade canned river fish

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 4 hr 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to prepare canned river fish at home? Prepare the necessary ingredients. It is best to use freshly caught fish. But if this is possible, then you can buy fish in the store. Be careful when choosing fish. Fish carcasses should be elastic with tightly attached scales. Pressing on the back of the fish should not leave any dents. The smell of fish should be natural and not strong. Wine can be replaced with plain water.

2. STEP 2

   

   Clean the fish from scales, gut the insides and cut off the fins, tails and heads. I do this with scissors - quickly and conveniently. Peel the onion.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the onion into half rings or quarter rings if the onions are large.

4. STEP 4

   

   Pour a little oil into the bottom of a thick-bottomed pan and place the first layer of fish. Add pepper, three bay leaves and salt to taste. Take a pan of such a size that it is 2/3 full.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place half of the total amount of chopped onion on top of the fish.

6. STEP 6

   

   Next, add a layer of fish again.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the remaining bay leaves and the other half of the chopped onion on top of the fish. Pour in sunflower oil, vinegar and wine (or water).

8. STEP 8

   

   Place the pan on the fire and bring the contents to a boil. Simmer the fish covered over low heat for 3-4 hours.

9. STEP 9

   

   After the specified time, check the fish for doneness - the bones should be cooked through. Rinse the cans of soda and sterilize them in a convenient way: steam, microwave or oven. Wash the lids with soda and boil for 3-5 minutes. I needed five 200 gram jars.

10. STEP 10

    

    Place the finished hot fish with the filling into sterile jars and cover with boiled lids. Cover the jars with a warm blanket and leave until completely cool.

11. STEP 11

    

    Store homemade canned river fish in the refrigerator. Happy harvesting!

My cat is a lover of such yummy food, what can you do for the sake of your pet)) I’m talking about myself.) When you become interested in sport while fishing, you often forget about time and food. And then you experience euphoria from the catch. At home, this euphoria is then prepared in an autoclave. In winter, it’s no longer canned food, but the pleasure of a memory)) My neighbor stews canned food in a pressure cooker, but I call this kind of cooking a killer of fish delicacies. The autoclave preserves all the vitamins and what the aroma is. Well, I've whetted my appetite, I'll go feed my pet)). You have a great recipe, I’ve added it to my bookmarks.
