Balyk
Bream is rightfully one of the best beer snacks. It is dried and smoked. The qualities for which the famous fish is valued are: fat content, pleasant smell and extraordinary taste. All this is only for the benefit of the balyk. In addition, it can be easily found everywhere.
You will need:
- Fresh bream – 2 carcasses, 2 kg each

Cooking step by step
- First of all, you have to arm yourself with a knife and start cutting fish. Cut off heads, tails, fins. Can be cleaned of scales. But to prepare balyk it is not at all necessary to do this.
- Cut the fish along the back, carefully separate the flesh from the spine, then trim the ribs and remove the entrails. It is important to proceed carefully so as not to accidentally puncture the gallbladder. Carefully remove all black films and wash the fillets. All that remains is to cut it into portions. When salting a large piece, you can simply make cuts on the fish, leaving the skin intact.
- Mix salt and sugar and fill the bottom of the dish. An enamel pan or stainless steel bucket will do. A food-grade plastic container will do. Place the pieces of fish and sprinkle with salt again. Add spices and bay leaf. A second layer of fish is laid out and again sprinkled with salt and spices. Repeat the procedure until all components are gone.
- Set a half-kilogram pressure and forget about the fish for 5 days, placing it in the refrigerator for salting. Let the bream soak in the spices, and the salt draws out excess liquid from them.
- After the specified period, rinse the pieces of future balyk with cold water. Fill a container with clean water and leave them to soak for 5 hours. The water should be changed periodically. This way the pulp will get rid of excess salt and acquire a pleasant taste.
- Soak the rope in vegetable oil to prevent the fish from drying out. Hang the bream and leave it to ripen under air currents. It is important to block access to insects by throwing gauze or mesh.
- The characteristic dried aroma will indicate readiness. Pieces of balyk will turn amber, acquire proper elasticity and some transparency.

- Sprinkle the river fish with your favorite spices, season with the indicated portion of oil and cover with foil (you can replace it with parchment paper).

It should be rubbed with the selected spices and left for 20 minutes. At this time, you can start preparing the vegetables. Carrots, onions and potatoes are washed, peeled and cut: onions into half rings, potatoes into slices, and carrots into small strips or cubes.

Find out the secret of delicious soup
Secret 1
Adding eggshells will create a clear broth. Before adding vegetables, it must be strained.
Secret 2
Over-salted soup can be easily saved with sugar. Place a piece of refined sugar on a spoon and lower it into the broth until the sugar begins to melt.
Secret 3
Boiled greens look ugly and have no value, so add parsley, dill or basil before serving.
Secret 4
For thickness, it is often recommended to use flour, but it should first be fried in a dry frying pan, otherwise lumps will form.

- Spray the baking dish with oil. Place the bream, sprinkle with flour and pour generously with butter. Splash some water and place in the oven for half an hour.
- Place a “blanket” from the remaining cheese mixture over the fish. Pick up the spread filling. Place in the oven and bake until the cheese is melted. Large bones do not create problems, and small ones become invisible. Delight and surprise of the guests are guaranteed.
