How to deal with the mucus on sand fish

According to the size of the fish, sprinkle a proper amount of edible salt on the fish and rub it as evenly as possible. After rubbing 1 to 2 minutes, sprinkle some starch on the fish. If there is no starch, flour will do. Apply evenly and continue to knead for 2 minutes. Finally, wash the salt and starch off the fish with clear water and wash it several times. Salt dilutes the mucus on the fish, and starch absorbs the mucus on the fish well, thus cleaning the mucus on the fish.

Treat with hot water

Clean the fish scales, especially the fish tails and gills, then rinse them with clear water several times to wash off some mucus on the fish, prepare a pot of boiling water, turn off the fire, naturally cool to about 80 degrees, scoop a spoonful on the fish with a spoon, and continue scraping with a descaling knife. Repeat this action several times, and finally rinse with clear water, which can also effectively remove the mucus from the fish. Be sure to spray a small amount of water evenly, otherwise the surface of the fish will be cooked by boiling water, the skin of the fish will fall off and the fish will not be particularly beautiful.
