Tricks for thawing fish using salt and white vinegar
Today, I'm introducing you to a simple trick to quickly thaw fish that takes only about 5 - 10 minutes while still maintaining the freshness like newly purchased fish.
Firstly, take the frozen fish out of the refrigerator. Prepare a bowl, add a tablespoon of salt (if the fish weighs more than 1 or 2 kg, add two tablespoons of salt), add about 15 ml of white vinegar, then pour in warm water (about 30°C). Stir until the salt is completely dissolved.
Next, pour each spoonful of the mixture onto the fish, the layer of ice on the surface of the fish will quickly melt. Let it sit for another 5 minutes, at this point the fish will be completely thawed.
