To solve this issue, you just need to know how to salt salmon caviar on your own, at home. This can be done not only with “random” caviar. Many housewives prefer to buy raw caviar and salt on their own. It is not only tastier, but also healthier - as they say, without preservatives of extraneous additives. So, here are some proven recipes for salting the most delicious and appetizing pink salmon caviar.
Before salting, the caviar must be cleaned of the film. On an industrial scale, special sieves with small cells are used for this, but at home we can take ordinary gauze. A small sleeve is made of gauze (gauze in several layers), caviar is placed in it, which must be washed under running water. Carefully sort and mix the eggs to clear the film. After such manipulations, the film will remain in gauze, and the caviar will be whole and granular.
You can also clean caviar with a colander. The holes in it should be small so that the eggs could hardly be placed in them. Thus, the caviar will be peeled, and the film will remain in a colander.

I admit honestly, I'm certainly a caviar soul. I can’t live without caviar and a month, so I understand well where and what kind of caviar I need to buy. For a long time I take only the one that is brought from the Far East. Now, in general, only in the fishnet began to take. They have good quality and I know that supplies are direct from the fishermen. But in supermarkets I began to be afraid to buy, several times very bad caviar came across. At that, it cost a lot of money, and some rubber under the guise of caviar slipped (((in general, it’s unpleasant even to recall.
