"The scales fall off by themselves!" - An instant way to clean fish without a knife or a cleaner

Cooking fish is a pleasure, but the process of cleaning it turns into a real nightmare. Scales fly all over the kitchen, stick to your hands, knife and cutting board... As a result, you have to spend a lot of time not only on the cleaning itself, but also on the subsequent cleaning.

But what if you tell me that you can get rid of scales in literally seconds , without a knife, special cleaners and unnecessary hassle ?

I recently learned a great life hack from my father-in-law. My wife and I were visiting relatives, and at a family dinner he decided to cook steaks from fresh carp.

I thought the cleaning process would take a long time. But my father-in-law just smiled and said, "Watch and learn!"

Just a couple of minutes – and the fish was completely cleaned, without dirt, without scales scattered all over the kitchen. I was shocked! And most importantly, this method works with any fish , even with predators, whose scales are small and tightly attached to the skin.

Now I'm sharing this simple but brilliant method with you!

All you need:

• Fish (any kind will do, even pike perch or perch)
• Hot water (boiling water)
• Container or large saucepan
• Gloves (optional if you don't want to get your hands dirty)

1. Place the fish in a container (it is best if it fits completely).
2. Pour boiling water over the carcass in a thin stream , wetting it evenly on all sides.
3. After a few seconds, the scales will begin to turn white and separate on their own .
4. Wait 20 seconds for the fish to cool slightly.
5. Run your hand over the carcass and the scales will come off in one motion!

You can also use a knife or sponge for final cleaning, but in 90% of cases this will not even be necessary .

This method works flawlessly and is suitable for any type of fish .

• No waste – scales don’t fly all over the kitchen.
• Minimum effort – no need to rub with a knife or cleaner.
• Save time – the whole process takes less than a minute .
• Safety - no more cuts and slippery knives.

Now fishing and cooking will no longer be associated with suffering! Use this life hack and forget about long and dirty cleaning of fish forever.
