Recipe
Cooking tips
- Simply removing the thin transparent skin on the back and the dark membrane in the belly can eliminate more than 50% of the fishy odor.
- Marinating with tuna sauce and vegetable oil creates a protective barrier against air exposure, preventing oxidation and maximizing the rich umami flavor unique to oily fish.
- Never cover the pan while grilling fish—closing the lid traps the fishy smell and moisture, which re-condenses onto the fish; always grill with the lid open to let the odor escape.
Recommended for
- Those who struggle with strong fishy odors filling the house when grilling fish at home.
- Parents wanting to prepare fish that’s free of small bones, making it safe and easy for children to eat.
