Almost no feast is complete without appetizers with red fish. Despite the fact that salmon and trout are considered the most popular and noble varieties, pink salmon will give them worthy competition. To stay within your budget and be sure of the quality of the saltiness, you can choose the fish and cook it yourself. How to salt pink salmon at home is described in our article.
Pink salmon is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, proteins, calcium and vitamin PP. Low calorie content and low cost make it a particularly attractive red fish. During heat treatment, especially frying, it will lose some of its nutritional value. To preserve the maximum amount of vitamins, it is better to bake or pickle it. Salting pink salmon is a quick way to prepare fish that will decorate the table and retain its taste and nutritional properties for a long time.
- Choose a high-quality pink salmon carcass. Fresh chilled fish should have “clean” eyes, red-pink gills, intact skin, and intact fins. Frozen carcasses must have a certificate indicating the place of catch and expiration date, but the quality can be fully verified only after defrosting.
- It is better not to buy ready-made pink salmon fillets, especially in unverified places, as unscrupulous sellers soak them in phosphates to increase weight and make them look more presentable.
- It is better to defrost frozen fish on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Defrosting in water or water will damage the fibers and loss of nutrients.
- For pickling, you will need glass, plastic or clay dishes. A metal container exposed to salt can ruin the taste and appearance of the fish.
- The appearance of the product can be spoiled by iodized salt, so it is better to use regular rock salt.
- Due to the delicate and at the same time elastic muscle tissue, the time for salting pink salmon usually does not exceed a day.
- The finished product should be stored in the refrigerator and not frozen in the freezer, so as not to spoil the taste of salted pink salmon.
- If the fish has been salted too well and seems over-salted, you can fill it with chilled boiled water and leave for a few minutes.
- Salted fish can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. For greater preservation, the pieces must be greased with vegetable oil.
How to deliciously salt pink salmon and how to cut it correctly?
- Wash the fish and clean the scales.
- Cut off the head, tail and fins with a special knife for cutting fish, but do not throw them away. This “waste” will make a delicious fish soup.
- Rip open the belly and remove the entrails.
- If there is caviar in the belly, it can also be salted.
- You can cut the fish into any pieces you want. Removing the skin or not is also at your discretion.
Salting pink salmon at home can be done in two ways: wet, using marinade or brine, and dry, using only salt and spices.
For dry salting, it is better not to remove the skin from pink salmon, and use coarsely ground salt. This way the fish will be salted quickly.

How to store red fish after salting at home: can it be frozen?
Salted red fish is an excellent appetizer that is often enjoyed at the holiday table. It goes well with white bread and butter or becomes an ingredient in many salads. But after salting, a logical question arises: how to store salted red fish at home?
All the rules and secrets of storing red fish are in our article.
The benefits of salted red fish
Red fish is salted to maximize its shelf life.
The product is highly valued due to its large number of useful substances. Red fish contains vitamins B, D, E, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, as well as healthy proteins, fats, carbohydrates and amino acids that are vital for the human body.
Doctors around the world advise including this product in your diet, and here's why:
- Fish oil strengthens the skeletal system and prevents rickets in children during cold periods, which occurs due to a lack of vitamin D.
- Fatty acids lower blood cholesterol levels, relieve stress on the cardiovascular system, and help cope with depression.
- Melatonin has a beneficial effect on sleep and helps cells recover.
- Vitamins strengthen the immune system, improve the digestive system and liver function, removing harmful substances and toxins from it.
- B6 helps with problems with the reproductive system, improves hormonal processes and fights infertility.
- E slows down the aging process and improves the condition of skin, hair and nails.
- Vitamin A normalizes the functioning of the visual system.
- B12 replenishes the lack of hemoglobin in the blood and improves blood circulation.
How to store red fish after salting at home
Salted fish is a perishable product. The storage location is chosen to be cold and dark. Check the fish every 2-3 days.
If you find signs of spoilage, do not eat it:
- Sticky coating on the skin. Rinse it off with brine and eat the fish immediately. The next day it will be irrevocably damaged.
- Loss of density and elasticity. Press the product with your finger: if the resulting dent does not straighten out, the fish has spoiled and should not be eaten.
Non-refrigerated storage method
If it is not possible to place salted fish in the refrigerator, find the darkest and driest place in the house with a temperature of up to +10°C. If it exceeds the specified values, the product will begin to deteriorate after about 2 hours.
Cold storage
Wrap the product in cotton cloth or paper, then immediately put it in the refrigerator. Store it at a temperature of +2...+4°C for no more than 5 days.
Soak a piece of cloth in table vinegar, wrap the fish, put it in a plastic bag and put it in the refrigerator. This way it will last no more than 10 days.
Another way is to leave the product in brine:
- lightly salted can be stored in the refrigerator for about 6 days;
- medium salted - 2 weeks;
- in a concentrated saline solution - a month.
If you are preparing a delicacy for a specific event, calculate the time in advance and choose a pickling method that allows it to be stored for the longest possible time.
Advice. Do not leave fish near other foods, especially eggs or vegetables. Bacteria form on them, which will lead to spoilage of the product if they lie nearby.
If the fish is purchased in a store in vacuum packaging, its shelf life is much longer:
- in the refrigerator at temperatures up to +6°C - 1 month;
- in the freezer at temperatures down to -8°C - 1.5 months.
After opening the vacuum packaging, consume the product within 24 hours.
Freezer storage
The freezer is the optimal place for long-term storage of red fish. To freeze salted salmon or trout, follow a few simple recommendations:
- Cut the fish into large pieces and pat them well with a paper towel or cloth. Rub until they are completely dry.
- Wrap the pieces in cling film, then place in a plastic bag.
- Remove excess air from the bag and seal tightly.
- Place the pieces in the freezer on one shelf. Then the odors will not mix during storage.
You can leave fish in the freezer for six months, but the sooner you take it out, the juicier, fresher and tastier it will be after defrosting.
Advice. Do not freeze salted fish with white meat (mackerel, herring). After defrosting, it loses its taste and density.
Thaw salted fish gradually. To begin, place the product from the freezer into the refrigerator for approximately 4 hours. Then it defrosts at room temperature. If you follow these rules, the fish will retain its structure, rich taste and color.
Herring storage
Herring is best stored in the brine in which it was cooked. If you make a regular salt solution and place fish in it, its taste will not be as rich.
If there is no brine left, wrap the finished herring in thick paper and put it in the refrigerator. Store it for no more than a week. After this period, the product will most likely spoil.
Shelf life
If you want to preserve lightly salted salmon, salted trout, herring or mackerel for as long as possible, maintain the correct temperature.
In the refrigerator at a temperature of about +4°C:
- Medium-salted herring can be stored for no longer than 2 weeks;
- fatty mackerel - up to 10 days;
- lightly salted salmon - no longer than 3 days;
- lightly salted salmon in vacuum packaging - no more than 30 days;
- lightly salted fish of other types - up to 5 days;
- medium-salted and marinated seafood - no longer than 2 weeks.
If you follow these storage rules, the delicacy will delight you with its rich taste and delicate texture.
Note. If you have any doubts about the correct temperature conditions when storing salted fish, do not take risks. Seafood poisoning is dangerous to health. It’s better to play it safe and cook the salted fish again, observing the temperature conditions during storage.
How to salt red fish at home
Here's how to salt your own fish:
- Choose the right fish - trout, salmon, sockeye salmon, pink salmon or chum salmon are best.
- Open the abdominal cavity and gut it well, remove the head and cut off the tail and fins.
- Remove all scales and rinse the fish well in cold water.
- Make a cut along the ridge. Carefully separate it from the meat and remove all excess bones.
- Remove all films from the inside.
- Prepare 1 tbsp. l. sugar and 2 tbsp. l. salt per 1 kg of product.
- Mix salt and sugar together and season the fish well with this mixture.
- Place the fish in a deep bowl, skin side up, and cover tightly with a lid or cling film.
- Add your favorite seasonings or herbs if desired.
After some time, the pickling will begin to release juice. It will be ready in 2-3 days.
Advice. If you don’t want to bother with cutting up a whole fish, buy a ready-made fillet or piece right away. It will cost more, but will save a lot of time.

It will be ready in 10 hours, but it is better to leave it for 2-3 days - it will be salted better and will have a brighter taste. To finish the salting process, simply drain the water in which the fish was lying.

Red fish, in particular salmon, is very beneficial for the human body. Everyone knows that this product is an essential source of fatty acids. At the same time, benefits can only be derived from high-quality products stored in accordance with standards.
Shelf life varies depending on the processing method and the type of red fish.
How is lightly salted salmon or other red fish stored? Can a salted product be frozen and how long can seafood be stored in vacuum packaging? Accurate and succinct answers to all the questions listed are further in the article.
How to choose red fish
On the shelves of shops and markets you can find red fish in the following form:
- fresh or chilled;
- pickled;
- salted or lightly salted;
- frozen;
- smoked.
When purchasing and choosing fresh fish for salting at home, you need to follow the basic rules:
- her eyes should be transparent;
- skin and scales – shiny;
- the carcass itself has a pleasant, faint odor;
- gills – bright;
- when pressing on the carcass, the skin and flesh are elastic and quickly restored;
- A cut of high-quality red fish should have white veins.
Attention! The main criterion for choosing fresh products is the gills. If they are white, brown or green, you should avoid purchasing them.
When purchasing in vacuum packaging, you should carefully inspect its integrity. Do not purchase the product if the packaging material is damaged or severely wrinkled. If there is liquid inside the package, the technology for preparing the product is most likely broken. Steaks, fillets and cut fish or mosaics are sold in a vacuum.
It is better to avoid purchasing the last two options, despite all the ease of use. It is impossible to assess the quality of a product by looking at its appearance; it is also difficult to understand what kind of fish is contained inside.
Unscrupulous manufacturers sometimes use coloring compounds to turn less valuable white fish into red ones.
General shelf life
High-quality factory-salted red fish can successfully retain its quality if stored in airtight packaging for 45 days. In this case, the temperature regime must be observed - 8-4 degrees, this condition indicates that the product is stored in the refrigerator.
After opening the package and breaking its seal, the product must be consumed within 1 day. This time it should be in the refrigerator.
The same storage conditions must be observed for salads, as well as other dishes that contain salted pink salmon, trout or salmon.
After a day, it undergoes irreversible oxidative reactions, the process of its decomposition starts and it becomes dangerous to the human body.
Fresh fish salted at home can be stored for a long time when kept in a salt solution. The shelf life of lightly salted salmon in the refrigerator (and other red fish) is about 1 week, but the exact norms vary depending on the concentration of the preservative in the brine.
Salting level | Recommended storage period |
Strong | About 30 days |
Average | 2 weeks |
Weak | 1 Week |
It must be taken into account that the solution of the required concentration must be prepared immediately. It is unacceptable to increase the salt content in the liquid during storage. This may cause food poisoning.
Fresh fish, salted with the addition of vegetable oil, can retain its taste and beneficial properties for a month. It is not recommended to keep salted products at room temperature for more than 2 hours. It quickly loses its freshness.
By freezing in the freezer, the shelf life of the product can be significantly increased, to a maximum of 6 months, but this method is used only in extreme cases when it is impossible to consume the entire volume of fish. After defrosting, the products lose the bulk of nutrients and vitamins and are inferior in taste to fresh ones.
Shelf life of salmon

It should be taken into account that fish emits an intense odor, which can spoil the taste of nearby products, so the effectiveness of this method is questionable. It is better to cook salmon immediately and store it in a form suitable for consumption.
Attention! If fresh salmon without salting needs to be stored for more than 2 days, it should be frozen.
Frozen
Freezing salmon is the best solution if the fish needs to be preserved for a long time. At temperatures from -18 degrees, fish retains its properties for more than 6 months, but you must follow these rules:
- Only fresh product is frozen;
- It is better to cut the carcass into pieces of the required size immediately;
- Each piece is wrapped in cling film, and only after that it is sent to the freezer.
It is better to use sealed bags or other containers for storage. It should be taken into account that the product may cause odor to spread throughout the freezer, so it must be kept separate from meat and vegetables.
It is not recommended to freeze salted and smoked products, because after thawing they lose their taste. If this condition is necessary, the product is also divided into pieces for portion freezing. Defrosting of fish is ensured in the refrigerator, because a sharp temperature change can cause a change in the structure of the product. It is also acceptable to place the carcass in ice water.

Basic ways to salt fish at home
There are two main ways of salting fish: dry and in marinade. The first involves rubbing fish fillets with a salt-based mixture, the second involves placing pieces of fish in the marinade for a certain time.
You can salt both fresh and frozen fish. Moreover, in the second case, as a rule, it is not recommended to defrost it first. Although there is no consensus among home cooks on this matter.
Almost any fish can be salted. However, most often at home, herring, mackerel, horse mackerel, pink salmon, chum salmon, trout are salted, and, a little less often, salmon and other fish.
We suggest you familiarize yourself with the main methods of salting fish at home in more detail.
Salting frozen fish
In order to salt frozen fish, you must first cut it: you only need fillet. For varieties of fish with tender flesh, the fillet is left with the skin, while for hake, horse mackerel and other fish with dense flesh, the fillet is taken without the skin. River fish are usually not suitable for this.
The prepared fillet is coated with olive oil, sprinkled with onion rings and thin cloves of garlic and placed in the refrigerator for a day, after which it is considered ready. For a kilogram of fillet you will need two to three onions and two cloves of garlic, as well as a tablespoon of oil.
For those who are confused by the lack of salt in the recipe, you can offer another, more common recipe.
Ingredients required:
- fish fillet - kilogram,
- coarse salt - 2 tablespoons,
- granulated sugar - half a teaspoon,
- olive oil – a tablespoon.
- Coat fish fillets (frozen) with a thin layer of olive oil and let sit for at least 10 minutes.
- Mix coarse salt (fine salt is not suitable for salting fish) and sugar.
- Coat each piece of fish flesh with the mixture.
- Place in a plate, cover with another slightly smaller plate, place a container of water on top to create a slight pressure.
- Place the fish in the refrigerator for a day. Within a day it can be used to make sandwiches by cutting it into thin slices.
Dry salting of red fish
Ingredients required:
- red fish (fillet) – kilogram,
- coarse salt - 2 tablespoons,
- granulated sugar - a tablespoon,
- dill - to taste,
- ground pepper - optional.
- Prepare the fillet.
- Mix salt and sugar and rub each piece with them.
- Place half of the fish in a single layer on the parchment.
- Sprinkle, if desired, with a small amount of pepper, and place sprigs of dill on top.
- Place the remaining fillet in a second layer.
- Cover with parchment.
- Wrap everything together in baking paper and put it in a cool place (for example, in the refrigerator). The fish should be salted under slight pressure.
- You can serve red fish salted in this way the very next day.
Storage
Experienced fishermen claim that as it is stored, dried fish matures and only gets better.
Where to store:
- Suspended in a cold and drafty place, in a bag made of natural fabric.
- Placed in a basket of willow branches with a lid. Such a basket should be placed in a drafty place in a shaded and cool place (not in the sun).
- In the kitchen cabinet - securely and tightly wrapped in polyethylene, parchment, cling foil or film.
There is nothing complicated in preparing dried fish; both experienced fishermen and beginners can easily cope with it. It’s safe to say that even beginners will succeed in making dried fish the first time. You can always treat your family and friends to this delicacy, because when prepared with your own hands, it will be much tastier than store-bought.

Salty fish
Salted red fish can be stored at home much longer than fresh fish. Thus, lightly salted fish remains tasty and healthy for 3 days, salted in a vacuum - about 25–30 days (the exact dates will be indicated on the package). Heavily salted fish will last in the refrigerator for a month.
In order to extend the shelf life of finished salted fish, you can fill it with vegetable oil. In this form, it will remain fresh for up to 3 months if the temperature is maintained.
If you wish, you can salt the fish yourself. Salmon, trout, pink salmon and sockeye salmon are better suited for salting. Cut the fish and pat the fillets dry with a paper towel. Cut the pulp into portions and place them in a deep bowl. Sprinkle the fish with salt (at the rate of 1 tsp.
salt per 0.5 kg of product) and sugar (to taste), add a little soy sauce, allspice and a couple of bay leaves. Place the workpiece under the press and leave it like this for about 2 hours at room temperature.

Salting river fish
River fish is usually salted dry. It is usually first gutted and the gills are removed. Small fish do not need to be gutted.
The second stage is to sprinkle the fish on all sides with salt. Salt is poured inside too. Then they are laid out in layers in an enamel pan or basin, sprinkling each layer with salt. Usually, five kilograms of fish require almost a kilogram of salt. It usually takes two weeks for the fish to be salted. A small fish will be salted twice as fast. Salted river fish can be stored all winter.

Recipe for pickled pink salmon after freezing
The texture of pink salmon deteriorates when frozen. Ice particles appear in the tissues of the fish, which loosen the product. When preparing thawed pink salmon for salting, you need to carefully look at the bones.
If the spine moves away from the flesh too quickly, it means the fish has been defrosted and frozen several times. This product is not suitable for pickling. If the meat of thawed pink salmon is elastic, you can start salting.
Note: the larger the fish, the meatier the fillet, and the easier it is to salt it.
The canonical recipe for salted pink salmon involves processing the fillet with a sugar-salt mixture. You need twice as much salt as sugar. The mixture is rubbed into the pink salmon slices from all sides.
The fish is kept in the refrigerator, covered, in an enamel or glass container for 24 hours. If you need to speed up the salting process, you can slightly increase the proportion of sugar. But fish processed in this way does not last long.

How long can you store salmon and how to store it in the refrigerator and freezer?
Salmon is a commercial salmon fish (ocean and lake), which can reach a length of 1.5 meters. It is valued for its excellent taste and healthy qualities. And it is used not only boiled or baked, but also salted.
Salted salmon is considered a delicacy. Some housewives, in order to save money, salt this fish on their own, so as not to overpay for a ready-made product. But due to the large size of salmon, the question often arises of how to store salmon at home.
Answers to this and other questions can be found in this article.
How to choose
You can find salmon in different forms on store shelves. It happens:
- lightly salted;
- salty;
- smoked;
- fresh;
- frozen;
- chilled;
- pickled.
Each species has its own characteristics, but there are general rules that you need to remember when buying this fish.
When choosing a fresh carcass, look at the eyes. In fresh fish they are transparent.
The skin of good quality salmon is shiny and the meat is dense. The smell is pleasant, fresh, and the gills are bright red. White, gray, green - indicators of staleness of the product.
- When pressing on the fish, there should be no hole left on it. If the carcass is fresh, its structure is dense and elastic.
- A cut of high-quality salmon has light-colored veins.
- The product placed in vacuum packaging must not be in liquid. When it is present, there were violations of production technology.
- The delicate pink color of the salmon cut is an indicator of its quality. Brighter colors may indicate the presence of dyes or a stale product.
- In a vacuum, they mainly sell belly, steak, fillet, and sliced meats.
Sliced fish should not be purchased for several reasons. Firstly, no one will be able to determine its degree of freshness by appearance, and secondly, it will be impossible to understand what kind of fish these pieces are from. In addition, unscrupulous manufacturers often use substances that are harmful to health, such as benzoic acid, as preservatives.
Refrigerated storage
Salmon purchased in vacuum packaging can be kept in the refrigerator for 30 - 45 days. And if the package has already been opened, even if stored on a refrigerator shelf, the product will need to be consumed within 24 hours.
The shelf life of salmon in brine is longer, but it will depend on the degree of salting.
- Lightly salted fish can be stored in a cold place for 6 days,
- medium salted – up to 2 weeks,
- and in brine with a high concentration of salt - up to 30 days.
To extend the refrigerated storage time, the fish fillet is peeled, placed in a glass or ceramic container, filled to the top with sunflower oil with spices (optional) and stored at 0 ° C - + 6 ° C. Store salmon in this form. possible within 3 months.
The shelf life of chilled salted salmon is shorter than when frozen. Therefore, for longer-term preservation, it is placed in the freezer.
Frozen storage
store salmon in the freezer at -18 ° C for up to six months.
Freezing and storing salmon in the freezer must follow certain rules:
- Only absolutely fresh fish is frozen;
- the carcass is first divided into small pieces;
- parts of the fish are wrapped in film, and then placed in bags and sealed tightly.
There is also a way to store salmon in an ice crust. To do this, chilled fish is dipped in water and frozen until a crust of ice forms on its surface. Then it is dipped into water again and frozen. This procedure is repeated until the fish is encased in a dense ice crust, after which it is placed in a bag and placed in the freezer.
You need to defrost fish in the refrigerator. If this is not possible, gradual defrosting in ice water is allowed.
Lightly salted, salted and smoked fish are also frozen, divided into portions.
Storing salted and lightly salted salmon
Salting salmon is the most common way to process it. Even a very large amount of salt cannot spoil it. This fish (like lard) absorbs only the required amount.
- You can store salted salmon on the refrigerator shelf in a container with brine, as well as on the loggia at +2°C (not higher).
- Lightly salted fish is kept refrigerated (possibly without brine).
Before storing salted salmon without refrigeration, it is peeled, divided into small parts, placed in a glass (ceramic) container, tightly closed with a plastic lid and wrapped in film. In such conditions, lightly salted salmon can be stored without refrigeration for up to 10 days.
Storage | Shelf life |
At room temperature | no more than 5 hours |
In a refrigerator | 7-10 days |
In the freezer | 3-4 months |
If the packaging is not damaged, lightly salted and salted fish in a vacuum can remain fresh for up to 60 days.
The shelf life of salmon in the freezer will extend up to several months if it is kept at a temperature of -18°C (not higher).
After opening the package, the shelf life of salmon is 24 hours.
Depending on the temperature conditions, the shelf life of this product in a vacuum may vary:
- 3 days – in the refrigerator, in homemade packaging;
- 30 days – at 0°С -2°С;
- 45 days – at -8°С –4°С.
These indicators refer to the total shelf life of salmon from the moment it is packaged, not purchased. Thus, fish packaged 10 days ago, based on storage conditions, can remain fresh for 20 to 25 days.

Types of red fish
There are many types of red fish that are popular among gourmets. Let's look at the main ones.
- The most popular is salmon. It is quite large in size, which is why it is so valued. Its meat is quite fatty and has a pink color with lightish veins.
- Trout looks little different from salmon, but its meat is less fatty. This fish goes well with most heavy foods.
- Pink salmon has soft pink flesh that is much lighter than that of salmon and trout. This is a very low-fat fish, which is very good to use for salting at home.
- Sockeye salmon also has red flesh, but it is much brighter and richer than that of other fish of the salmon family. This fish tastes very tender and juicy. It goes well with products that cannot overpower its specific taste.
Each type of red fish is perfect for both salting and heat treatment. Therefore, which fish to choose depends solely on personal taste preferences, because there are as many opinions as there are people. The only thing that is very important to pay attention to when purchasing it is freshness, because the quality of a home-cooked dish depends on this.
How to choose the right fish
First of all, you need to decide what type of fish you want to purchase. This can be loose salted fish, a piece of fillet or steak, or sliced fish.
Lightly salted salmon or pink salmon sold by weight should be light pink in color. Dark meat indicates spoilage, while pale and grayish meat indicates that the fish was frozen before cooking. The pulp should have elasticity and not separate.
If you choose a steak, then the bones in high-quality fish should not move away from the meat, and the grayish layer between the skin and meat should be thin.
If you prefer fillet, then pay attention to the side cuts. If they are even, this indicates good quality of the fish used for salting. You should also evaluate how many white veins are visible on the piece. A narrow, stringy piece with a lot of veining means it is the tail end, which means it will be dry and lean. It is better to choose parts cut from the head side - they will be more tender and fatty.
Products in vacuum packaging must not contain air or liquid. Their presence indicates non-compliance with production technology. Thermal packaging must be hermetically sealed and contain no air. You should definitely pay attention to the expiration date written on the packaging. Also, you should not buy vacuum packaging stored on the shelves of the sales area, outside of refrigeration equipment.
If you buy fish and are going to salt it yourself, then pay attention to its appearance. Fresh fish should have a pleasant smell, the eyes should be transparent, and the skin should be shiny. The fillet should have a soft pink color and be firm.
Regardless of whether you buy salted fish or plan to salt it yourself, it is important to know the rules for storing it at home.
How long can fresh fish be stored?
Raw fish is a highly perishable commodity. If you leave it whole without gutting it, it can stay fresh in the refrigerator for only a few hours. And then pathogens and bacteria will begin to form in it.
You can store fresh fish at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes before cleaning it.
Vacuum-packed fish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Fresh product should only be stored in a cool place. Remove fish from the refrigerator before cooking. It is not recommended to store it in plastic bags; it is better to use parchment paper, which will provide the product with air flow.
Storing red fish in the refrigerator
If you bought fresh fish and salted it yourself, then the best storage method would be the following. After salting, it is necessary to remove the skin from the fish, leaving only the fillet. Next, cut it into pieces and place in a glass jar in a thick layer. If desired, you can add black pepper or bay leaf. Pour vegetable oil over the slices until they are completely covered. The jar, closed with a plastic lid, should be placed in the refrigerator. You can store fish this way for 25-30 days.
There is another way to store lightly salted fish. The carcass must be wrapped in a cloth soaked in vinegar and placed in a tightly sealed bag or cling film. You can store this fish in the refrigerator for no more than 10 days.
If you purchased factory-salted fish in vacuum packaging, then it must be stored according to the indicated expiration date, but no more than 45 days at a temperature of -8 to -4 degrees and a month at a temperature of 0 +6 degrees. In addition, it is important to follow the following rules:
- If the purchased fish was stored in a store in refrigeration equipment, you should not try to store it for a long time in the freezer. Due to temperature changes and the need for subsequent defrosting, the quality of the meat will deteriorate.
- After opening the vacuum packaging, it is advisable to consume the fish within 24 hours.
- If you cannot use the fillet at one time, you need to wrap it in cling film and put it in the refrigerator. However, do not forget that the storage period should not exceed several days.
How long and at what temperature should trout be stored?
Trout belongs to the category of fish with rather fatty meat, so it is recommended to store it frozen for no more than 6 months. Repeated frosts are not allowed. Trout should be frozen as quickly as possible. If the fish was stored for a long time in the refrigerator and began to lose its taste, then freezing will not change the situation and will not return the taste.
Do you use expired food for cooking at home?
Yes, the main thing is to process it if it is meat or expired kefir for pancakes.

When refrigerated, trout can be stored for several days. In stores, this period can be up to a month, but the conditions of display cases cannot be reproduced in the refrigerator. If the trout is not eaten within 2-3 days, then it must be frozen immediately.
Marinated trout or salted fish can be stored in the refrigerator for 7-10 days. In this case, it is important not to create too sudden temperature changes. For example, if the workpiece was moved to room conditions, and after a long time back into the cold, this may negatively affect the shelf life. If trout is consumed in portions, then after separating the required amount, the main fish must be immediately sent to the refrigerator.
Storing fish in the freezer
To ensure maximum shelf life of fish after salting at home, you can use the freezer. Salted salmon, trout or other red fish must be cut into fairly large pieces. Next, they should be blotted with a napkin or kitchen towel to get rid of excess moisture. After this, each piece is tightly wrapped in cling film and placed in a tightly sealed bag. You can store fish packaged this way in the freezer for 6 months. However, it should be understood that the longer the fish is stored, the drier it will become.

Salted fish in stores is quite an expensive product. It is unknown what spices it was salted with and how fresh the salting was. Pink salmon salted yourself will be much tastier than purchased, its cost will be cheaper, and it can become a real delicacy on the holiday table. Moreover, it is not at all difficult to pickle it. All you need for this is salt, sugar, spices and seasonings. Below in the article we will give general recommendations and recipes on how to pickle pink salmon at home.
Both fresh and frozen pink salmon are suitable for salting. You can salt red fish, either the whole carcass or cut into small pieces, fillets or steaks. The only thing you need to remember is that the salting process, depending on the chosen recipe, takes time: getting salted fish will take several hours to a day.
Basically, frozen pink salmon is offered in stores, as it can be stored longer at very low temperatures. There are also options for cut fish, but the price is higher. You can take uncut fish, because its preparation for salting will be simple.
Truly tasty salted fish can be obtained from fresh pink salmon. Before purchasing, fresh fish should be checked for smell and appearance: when pressed, the fish should quickly return to its previous shape and smell pleasant.
If you bought frozen fish for salting, you must first defrost it. To defrost, it is better to leave the carcass in the refrigerator overnight. During this time it will melt and it will be easier to cut it.
Defrosting is allowed in room conditions (when you forgot to take the fish out of the freezer or bought frozen fish in a store), leaving it on the table for 2-3 hours. During this time it will melt and cutting it up will not be difficult.
