The bream is a great fish. Bream lives in lakes, rivers, and artificial lakes and ponds, so this fish is quite affordable and popular. Bream meat is rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, PP, C, E. It also contains micro and macro elements, Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.

Fish proteins have a higher biological value than meat proteins. They are faster and better absorbed and digested by the human body. But many housewives are reluctant to buy bream, as they believe that it is difficult to clean it.

But this is not entirely correct. It quickly dissipates after you try to clean the bream for the first time and see for yourself that everything is not so difficult.

How to clean bream step by step instructions with photos

Step 1

 

For work, we need a bream, a sharp knife, a spoon, a food bag.

Step 2

 

Rinse the bream. Cut out the dorsal fin by making shallow cuts along its entire length on both sides.

Step 3

 

Then stretch the fin with your hand in the direction from the tail to the head. Cut out the pectoral fins.

Step 4

 

Place the fish in the bag and on the cutting board. Starting from the tail area, with quick, sure movements, against the growth of scales, remove the scales in small portions and put them aside. After removing the scales from one side, turn the fish over to the second side and clean the second side. Thanks to the package, the scales will not scatter around the room, but will all gather in the package. After cleaning from scales, rinse the bream very well under running water.

Step 5

 

Using a sharp knife, make a longitudinal cut from the head to the caudal fin.

Step 6

 

Using a spoon, carefully scoop out the insides. Be careful not to damage your gallbladder. If you still damaged the gallbladder, then immediately cut out the part of the pulp that got bile and rub the fish in that place with salt.

Step 7

 

Cut the film covering the vertebral bone and clean the blood from this bone. Rinse the fish thoroughly, changing the water several times.

Step 8

 

Take out the gills.

Step 9

 

Or you can just cut off your head.

Step 10

 

The bream is ready to go.
