Fish slicing
To make a beautiful fish cut, it is advisable to use white and red fish at the same time - this will allow the dish to look as impressive as possible. Also, a very original look will be sliced from fish of different colors, which is laid out in sectors, paths or patterns and decorated with "pockets" of thin lemon circles in which black olives are embedded. No less presentable in a fish cut looks a beautiful rose, rolled up from lace salad leaves, as well as petals from butter, which can be spread on bread.
Traditionally, fish slices are made using multi-colored skewers, which are convenient to take fish from a plate.
One of the popular ways to beautifully decorate fish is the following recipe. Crab meat, slightly salted herring and salmon should be cut into diagonal strips (4-5 cm thick) and infused in a marinade of 0.5 cups of soft cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon of mustard, 0.5 cups of mayonnaise, 0.5 tablespoons of grated horseradish, 50 g chopped herbs, a pinch of salt and ground black pepper. Seasoned fish is placed in the refrigerator for one and a half to two hours, after which it is spread on a plate surrounded by cherry tomatoes, olives, curly parsley, cucumber slices and fresh salad leaves.
