Herring in Dutch Recipe
|I think that this herring is the same ” Dutch-style “as that Soviet meat “French-style”. Because in Holland, herring is sold, cut into fillets, preserving the tail and sprinkling, at most, with onions. But this cooking option turned out to be very, very good and diversified our “herring table”. The recipe is found on the web in different proportions and cooking methods (both from fresh and salted herring). I tried different ways and brought out for myself the option that I liked.

Cucumber Pickle Sushi with Salmon Recipe
|I want to share my classic sushi recipe, which I have been preparing for several years. A mandatory component is not only nori and salmon, but also pickled (lightly salted) cucumber, and its brine. In this dish, brine replaces rice vinegar, which is usually used to prepare rice for drying. Everyone has their own favorite recipe for pickling cucumbers, in which the taste of sushi can be a little different. Due to the presence of spices in cucumber brine, it enriches this dish not only with an additional aroma, but also with taste.

Lampreys in Marinade with Vegetables Recipe
|Big luck: we finally got lampreys in the fish shop again! Back in the Soviet era, our family bought them in smoked form, however, only once a year, and then we dressed them with homemade mustard sauce and arranged a gluttonous feast.Now I’ve learned how to make lampreys myself. Only before describing the recipe, I want to say at least a few words about what they are.
Fish or meat?
Lampreys were formerly considered fish: so they are designated in a number of dictionaries, starting with V. Dahl . That is why V. Pokhlebkin in his culinary encyclopedia calls them so. But zoologists refer lampreys to marine animals of the group of lower vertebrates of the class of round-mouthed. They are found in the temperate waters of the Northern and Southern hemispheres.It is curious that the word “lamprey” came to the Russian language, having made a kind of journey through Europe, which began in Germany. There it originally sounded like Neunauge, that is, “nine-eyed” – for the presence of seven eye-like gill openings, along with the eye itself and the unpaired organ of smell.These inhabitants of the waters are passable (live in the sea, and spawn in fresh water) and residential lake or river (stream). The first reach a meter long, the second-much smaller. The apotheosis of the life of lampreys is spawning: after laying eggs, they die. The hatched sandworm larvae reach sexual maturity in 2-3 years.The snake-like appearance of lampreys may confuse some people, but the delicacy of the eel is the same in appearance. Due to the deterioration of the ecological situation, a number of species from the forty existing ones are listed in the Red List of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). However, lampreys are still subject to fishing.
Preparation for cooking
Despite the fact that lampreys have no bones, no scales, no entrails, except for the small short intestine, preparing them for cooking is a troublesome task. And all because their skin is enveloped in a large amount of mucus, which is also poisonous. Tips for removing this unpleasant substance include different procedures: soaking in several waters of salt water, rubbing with salt. Just wash it out is unlikely to work, I, in any case, does not work out.I got used to acting in a complex way: first-washing, then rubbing with salt and soaking in cold water for 15-20 minutes, again washing, again-rubbing with salt, placing in a plastic bag and keeping in the refrigerator for about an hour. And after that, of course, another wash in running water.You can open the abdomen and get a mini-intestine, you can squeeze out the blood for kosher by making an incision in the anal area. These actions are at the discretion of the cook.
Preparation
Lampreys are fried, baked, smoked and marinated. I will not tell you about how to smoke, because I have never personally tried it. But I do not advise cooking, because if any particles of mucus remain, the toxic substances will pass into the bodies of the nine-eyes. True, I read that Portuguese chefs manage to cook boiled lampreys, but they do not give away the secret. However, to be honest, I am not very interested in it.When frying lampreys, they are breaded or not breaded, they are kept in a hot frying pan for about 4 minutes on each side. At the same time, fat is melted, which makes up a little more than a third of the entire mass and-attention! – it is a very perishable product. This time is quite enough to protect the future dish from poisons. I prefer to lightly pan, sprinkle with lemon and bake in the oven for half an hour. The most patient workers say that before hot processing, they marinate prepared carcasses in red wine for a whole day – I have never tried it, so I mention it “in purely theoretical terms”. Also see my recipe below!
Serve
Although the “nine-eyes” are not fish, but when serving the table, it is most convenient to place them in a fish plate-a herring bowl or a sprat bowl with sides. You can mix part of the marinade with mustard (approximately in this proportion: 2 tablespoons of marinade – 1 tablespoon of mustard) and pour this mixture over the dish. You can cover the edges with lemon slices and / or olives. I have the same serve on sandwiches. It’s very tasty! Try to cook thoroughly!
