Home Salads with fish

Canned saury is a very popular canned food in our country. Three components such as price, quality and wonderful delicate taste determine the high demand for this fish. And salads made from saury canned in oil are simply inimitable!

Saury belongs to a marine fish species, the mackerel family. The maximum body length is 40 cm, weight is 180 g. In Russia, saury is found in the Sea of Japan, in the southern part of the Sea of Okhotsk and in the Pacific Ocean.

In our country, it is common to process saury into canned food using the cold smoking method with the addition of herbs, spices and oil. Canned saury is a very convenient type of finished product: it can be eaten immediately. If you prepare any dish from saury, it will turn out very tasty and healthy.

Even in canned form, saury retains beneficial polyunsaturated fatty acids, as well as a number of vitamins, proteins and minerals.

At first glance, canned saury seems like such a simple, ordinary, unpretentious product, but, nevertheless, you can prepare delicious, excellent-tasting dishes from it. The number of all kinds of snacks, salads and other dishes made from saury cannot be counted.

Of course, you can use other canned fish options for preparing salads, but saury is considered the best option. It is cheaper than salmon, but much tastier than sprat and some other inexpensive varieties of fish. And therefore there are a huge number of salads with canned fish saury.

How to choose the right one

Some manufacturers often deceive their consumers by releasing less valuable fish under the guise of real saury. And although it may not pose a direct threat to the life and health of the eater, it will be a shame to overpay for a cheaper analogue, and unsweetened baked goods will not be as flavorful.

To avoid the risk of running into a fake or completely low-quality product, it is important to adhere to just a few simple points of instructions:

carefully check the condition of the can, leaving aside any swollen or damaged containers;
study the date of manufacture, postponing the option with a “just about” suitable expiration date;
read the numbers on the tin lid.

But if people usually do not lose their vigilance with the first two points, then problems often arise with the last one. Even long-time fans of this canned food do not always know what the stamped numbers on the top of the package indicate.

There are two main markings that require mention:

186 – oil-based blanching;
308 is a natural product.

If the consumer trusted the designation on the can, but upon opening it turned out that the installed code did not correspond to the contents, then this indicates a fake. Moreover, today craftsmen have become adept at counterfeiting even the products of well-known brands, producing counterfeit goods under a world-famous label.

After the jar is opened, you should visually assess its level of fullness. If there are golden light pieces neatly placed inside that have not fallen apart or peeled off, then this is a good sign. Usually, honest manufacturers do not skimp on providing at least 70% capacity.

If there was an incomprehensible mess inside, more like minced fish for cutlets, then this indicates either a fake or that the product has already deteriorated.

Austrian salad with avocado and saury

After that, add the chopped herbs, mix everything and remove from the heat. A tasty, aromatic and beautiful dish is ready. Before you start dinner, don't forget to take a photo to get a like from your friends.

Cooking tips

So, how to cook pasta without sticking? Firstly, it is better to choose products made from durum wheat. They are not only healthier, but also practically do not stick together (of course, when prepared correctly).

Secondly, there must be a proper ratio of water, salt and products. For 1 liter of water you need 100 grams of pasta. And there should be about 10 grams of salt for this amount (+- 5 grams).

Third rule: you will need a large saucepan. That is, if you plan to cook about 500 grams of pasta, then the pan should be at least four liters, or better yet five. The more space there is for the pasta, the less likely it is that they will stick together.

If you cook spaghetti, before throwing it into the water, do not break the product, throw it whole. Otherwise, there is a risk of them sticking together. Whole spaghetti will still submerge in about thirty to forty seconds.

Do not cook products longer than indicated on the package. If the instructions say that you need to cook for about three minutes, then do so. Otherwise, you will simply overcook them and they will stick together.

After the products are cooked, do not rinse them with cold water. It’s better to just transfer it to a colander and let the liquid drain. Then return the pasta to the pan and add a few tablespoons of sunflower or olive oil.
