Thank you thank you thank you for that
Thank you very much for the tip I'm going to try it
Man i wish i watched this before i made my salmon🤦🏽♂️this sh*t aint it bruh🤢
Thank you so much..I don't eat fish on a reg. Basis due to the smell but glad this is a thing..looking fwd to more omega3
You just increased the quality of my life many-fold. I seek to eat sardines as a main food, especially in this pandemic era & Russia-China vs USA dispute era, where my usual frozen salmon has not been available at the store in a year or so. I actually dread grabbing the sardines to prepare, due to the odor I know I am about to endure with cooking/ eating. Wow. If this works, I will be eternally grateful. I can't wait to give it a try.
Found this yesterday and it worked beautifully. We defrosted some haddock fillets and there was quite a strong fish smell, we placed the two fillets into a bowl and covered them with milk, left for 20mins and then patted them dry on kitchen roll. The strong fish smell was neutralised and the milk had not influenced the taste of the fillets. 100% success 👍
Thank you for such valuable information…pls keep doing a good thing to youtube community…God bless.
That fas?
I hope this applies to women, too!

how to remove smell in dry fish
plz reply
Does this affect the taste?
This is frickin genius. Thank you.
Wow. This is literally one of the best tips I have ever seen
how about brine?
thank you for being the ONLY video on youtube that explains this. Incredibly useful information that no one talks about!!!
Seefood is supposed to smell like seefood when not coocked…
Awesome! Now how to remove fishy smell from the milk?
She's dope 😍😍😍
Also note, make sure you're using whole milk; not fat free or 2% obviously. If you don't want to waste it, just pour it back into the carton and await the next victim to have their cereal.
Thank you so much! Just what I was looking for!!
Hi not sure if your still active, but does this work with the fish roe as well?
And a non dairy option? Or can this casein only be found in cow's milk?
This trick also works on chicken! Removes the fishy taste right away!
hmmmm soak it with lemon.. just a little. salmon is just a terrible fish for odors. try this only with salmon or a few others. Most of the fish out there are ok washed with some fresh tamarind juice. Milk is just too expensive to be used as a soaking agent. If milk is possible, then try with coconut milk or evaporated milk. its much cheaper.
I tried Won’t work, please don’t mislead people…
This is an ancient Chinese cooking secret
This did not work for my salmon. Any tips to why ?
so that means you can drink fish milk! the supermarkets lied to me!!!!! They Lied!!!!!!!!
The biggest issue I have is that I grill some salmon at home, and the smell REMAINS in the house for a day or so, even after I opened all the windows and stuff. Will this method prevent (or significantly reduce) the smells from sticking in the house?
then you put the milk back into the carton in the frig and patiently wait blehehehe
What if there’s milk taste🙂?
