Salting Pink Salmon with Vodka
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You can prepare an incredibly aromatic and juicy appetizer from red fish in 24 hours by adding alcohol during salting. The alcohol should not have a strong flavor so as not to overpower the taste of pink salmon and salt. This appetizer keeps for 3–4 days when stored chilled. Serve the appetizer at the table.
