Capelin in the Air Fryer

Description

A delicious appetizer for any gathering. I prepare the fish with liquid smoke, so it turns out smoked. In appearance and taste, capelin resembles sprats. This fish can be eaten on its own or used to prepare other dishes, such as salads and appetizers (sandwiches, tartlets). The fish is served cold. Serve the appetizer at the table.
