STEP-BY-STEP COOKING RECIPE

Step 1

Place the knife in the plane of the table just above the spine. Holding the fish with your palm, cut off the fillets.

Step 3

Slide the knife under the rib bones. Press down on the fish with your other hand, and press the knife against the bones from below. Cut the bones along with the dark film.

Step 4

Pick up the edge of the skin with a knife and, gently pulling in the other direction, remove it.
