Sometimes cooked fried fish can have a bitter taste.

No one is immune from this phenomenon, however, throwing away the finished dish is also not an option.

Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, cook and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova is ready to share with you advice on how to fix the situation.

How to remove bitterness from cooked fish

Let's start with the fact that fish can taste bitter for a number of reasons.

For example, an unscrupulous seller could sell you products that have been defrosted multiple times under the guise of chilled products.

And fish also tastes bitter if it is not cut correctly. The bitterness is caused by bile spilled from the gall bladder and getting on the meat.

You can save the dish. To do this, you will need fresh herbs, such as parsley and celery.

Chop the herbs and sprinkle them over the fish pieces or add the seasoning to the finished fish soup or fish salad.

If bitterness is noticed in the stewed fish, then it should be stewed again with the addition of carrots and onions.
