Hello everyone, my dear readers and subscribers! I once had the opportunity to cut up purchased pink salmon and cooked it in a slow cooker. And imagine my surprise when I found eggs inside the carcass. These are sacs inside female sturgeon and salmon fish that contain eggs. I was very happy with my find, because along with the carcass I came across a real delicacy, for which the store would charge a considerable price. I began to think about how to cook pink salmon caviar - salt it or fry it.

As a result, I fried some of it and immediately salted some of it, since only fresh pink salmon makes the most delicious appetizer. It is not hard at all, very soft and does not burst when spread. Just before cooking, you need to carefully separate the eggs from the eggs - remove the films, partitions, and rinse everything in clean water. For both washing and salting, use only purified (not chlorinated) water, otherwise the finished product will smell of chlorine. When fried, the product is no less tasty. I fried the rest of my find for lunch - I swept everything off the table in one sitting.
