In particular, there is no need to use vegetable oil. Hence - low calorie and fat content in foods, not exceeding the permissible norm.

Smoking as a type of heat treatment food has long been used. However, the preparation of modern smoked fish delicacies is not always used for the introduction of natural and safe technologies..

Modern smoking technologies

To date, several methods are used:

* hot smoking - smoke temperature in the range 80-170 °C;

* cold smoke treatment - the temperature is not higher 40 °C;

What is the danger of "liquid smoke"?

Some manufacturers introduce smokeless treatment with the use of special smoking liquids.

This method is difficult to call smoking. After all, the algorithm for processing fish is reduced to immersion in a special chemical substance (it is often called liquid smoke) basic raw materials. The chemical composition of this suspension allows for a minimum of time to give the product the desired taste and color. At the same time, the financial costs of such production are significantly reduced compared to hot and cold smoking. AND, it would seem, all right, if not the harmfulness of such a product. Between the arguments "against" – formation of oncogenic substances during such a process.

Unfortunately, the law does not prohibit "liquid smoke". More, it is often used, combining with natural smoking. That is why it is extremely important to carefully study the contents of the label and the composition of the product.

How to recognize "liquid smoke"?

Distinguish fish, prepared by such technology, easy. It is enough to use certain markers, as alert. In particular:

Too sharp smell. In fish, cooked "on firewood" – delicate, mild aroma.

Elasticity - from liquid smoke of fish fibers, not holding shape, are destroyed. If such a product is cut with a knife, it will look like porridge inside.

Weight. Fish after such processing becomes heavier in contrast to dense and dry after natural smoking.
