Ingredients
Steps
-
Remove scales and internal organs from fresh herring and wash
-
Use a sharp knife to cut off the head and slice it into two pieces along the spine
-
Sprinkle fine salt and pepper powder evenly on both sides and let dry in a cool place for half a day. Dry the fish skin so it won't break easily when fried. If you don’t have time to dry, you can use a kitchen towel to absorb the surface moisture and sprinkle a little dry powder on it. Of course, it is not as good as drying, because it is also pickled and flavored while drying.
-
Heat oil in a pan over low heat. Spread a little dry powder on both sides of the fish and put it into a flat-bottomed non-stick pan. If both sides of the fish skin have dried and are no longer sticky, there is no need to flour them
-
Fry one side until half cooked, turn over and continue frying over low heat
-
Just fry both sides
-
The fragrant and chewy fish skin was finally eaten whole
