HOW TO PICKLE FISH
How to Pickle Fish. Pickled fish is a popular food the world over, largely because pickling allows the meat to last longer than simple refrigeration or open-air storage. Pickling also gives fish a slightly salty and acidic bite, which can...

Steps:
- Cut your fish into chunks. While you can pickle full fish or large fillets, you won't get the same control over the process that you do when you cut up the fish. If your fish is freshly caught, clean and gut it first. Then, use a sharp, clean knife to cut your fish into large chunks before you start the brining process. The chunks should be about the size of a large bite of food. You want to be able to eat them, but you don't want them to be so small that they dissolve during the pickling process. For smaller fish like anchovies or herring, you may be able to pickle the whole filet without cutting it up.
- Use salt and water to make a weak brine. Your fish will go through a weak brine before it goes in the heavy, more flavorful brine. Make a weak brine by adding 1 cup of kosher salt or sea salt per every quart of water (about 200 grams per every liter of water), and bringing the solution to a boil. Let the salt dissolve before removing it from the heat. Then, allow the brine to cool. You will need enough brine to completely cover your fish.
- Cover your fish with the weak brine. Once the brine has cooled to room temperature, put your fish fillets or fish chunks in a ceramic or glass container. Pour in enough brine to completely cover the fish, but not so much that you cannot move the dish.
- Refrigerate the fish in brine for 8-24 hours. How long you choose to keep your fish in the weak brine will be a matter of preference. The longer you brine, the more of a pickled flavor you will get. This can work well for stronger fish like pike but may be too much for a more delicate fish like bass.
- Drain the brine from the container. Carefully drain out the brine from the dish into the sink or another container. At this point, you may or may not choose to rinse the fish. Rinsing helps get rid of some of the salty flavor from the brine. If you do rinse, pat the fish dry completely. If you don't rinse, you should still pat the fish to absorb any excess salt.
- Cover pike and strongly flavored fish with white vinegar for up to a day. More delicate fish including salmon and trout don't need to go into vinegar, but stronger fish often do. After you've removed the brine and patted dry your fish, cover it with 5% acidity distilled white vinegar. Put the fish back in the refrigerator and allow it to sit for at least overnight and up to a full day. Once your fish is ready for pickling, drain the vinegar, but don't rinse off the fish. Other fish that may benefit from a vinegar soak include mackerel, sardines, and anchovies.
PICKLED FISH
Many of you have purchased Pickled Herring I am sure. It has been a New Years Eve Tradition in our house for over fifty years. "Noon Hour" is a good brand. You can make a very good Pickled Fish at home. I prefer the sweet vinegar and wine rather than the creamed variety. I started experimenting with the cheapest fish I could...

Steps:
- 1. The Fish: Clean and rinse the fillets 1 1/2 to 2 pounds. If fillets are thick slice on the bias to about 1/8" to 1/4" thick, then cut to size of quarter coin. Fish remain raw for this recipe. No cooking of fish. IMPORTANT: The fish bones will dissolve don't worry about them.
- 2. The Brine: Bring 2 cups white vinegar, 1 1/2 cups water and 1 cup pickling or canning salt to a boil and stir. Allow to cool to room temperature. If using stainless steel pan don't add salt until it comes to a high simmer. Otherwise salt can pit stainless steel cookware.
- 3. Put Fish into one gallon size zip-lock bag or sealable container and add the cooled Brine. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 days. Then drain and rinse twice. Then allow to soak in fresh cold water for 5 to 10 minutes.
- 4. The Pickling Liquid: Combine 1 2/3 cups white vinegar, 2/3 cup water, 1 2/3 cups sugar and bring to high simmer-low boil. Add the 2 tablespoons of Pickling Spices and 2 teaspoons Mustard Seed and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature. Then add the 3/4 to 1 cup of Riesling White Wine (I used Black Swan Brand), or use sweet to very sweet white wine of your choice. Strain and reserve both liquid and spices.
- 5. Packing Fish and Onions: In pint jars place a couple layers of Fish, then layer of onion and a small bit of the reserved spices. Continue layering until jars are full to 1/4 inch of top, pack firmly. Then fill with Pickling Liquid to 1/4 inch of top. Seal and refrigerate for 6 to 10 days. Refrigerated will keep months.
- 6. You can use the excess Pickling Liquid and Spices to make Sweet Refrigerator Pickles with Onions. Just combine sliced Cucumbers and Onions, and refrigerate.
- 7. Note: I posted this prematurely prior to editing and checking everything for this recipe on 3/5/10. I will do that and remove this note 3/6/10. Allow me to proof soon before trying this.
PICKLED FISH
This recipe comes from my husbands aunt. We love to fish and some times I get tired of fried fish, so I tried this recipe I found in one of my many cook books. We love it, and its cheaper than the pickled fish in the stores.

- Heat 4 cups of water enough to dissolve salt. Let this brine cool to at least room temperature, preferably colder. When it is cold enough, submerge the pike pieces in the brine and refrigerate overnight. Meanwhile, bring the sugar, vinegar, the remaining cup of water and all the spices to a boil. Simmer 5 minutes, then turn off the heat and let this steep until cool.
- When the pike has brined, layer it in a glass jar with the sliced lemon peel, bay leaves and red onion. Pour over the cooled pickling liquid with all the spice and seal the jars. Wait at least a day before eating, and I find it best after about a week to 10 days. Store in the fridge for up to 1 month.
