How to clean hairtail?
Method one
The scales of hairtail stick firmly to the fish body, which is difficult to clean by rubbing with hands, and it takes time to scrape with a knife. If the hairtail is put into water at about 80 degrees, scalded for 10 seconds, immediately immersed in cold water, and then scrubbed with a brush or cloth, the scales will be removed quickly. However, I suggest that you add some salt and ginger when cleaning, so that the freshness of fish will not be affected by foreign objects when cleaning.
Hairtail has a strong fishy smell and greasy taste, so it is difficult to wash it with clear water. You can soak hairtail in alkaline water first, and then wash it with clear water, so it will be easy to wash, and there is no fishy smell.
Method 2
1, prepare a small ball of fine steel wire for washing dishes (usually available at home), cut a small ball (cut as much as you use, and throw it away when you use it).
2. After the hairtail is thawed in a basin, wipe it with a steel ball from beginning to end, and soon the white phosphorus will fall off.
3. Then remove the hairtail, cut off its internal organs and wash it.
Method 3
1, prepare two basins, one basin of hot water (about 80 degrees) and one basin of cold water.
2. Put the hairtail in hot water first, soak it for 45 seconds, then quickly remove it and put it in cold water. Be sure to do it quickly.
3. You will find that a large part of the fish scales have fallen off by themselves. Then gently rub it with your hands, and the remaining scales will be washed clean.
