Salting mackerel in mustard. Mackerel baked in mustard sauce

There is often confusion in the concepts: examination of paintings and assessment of paintings, assessment of paintings and assessment of paintings. Painting is a broader concept than paintings; painting can be on porcelain, furniture and other objects, while paintings are something that is placed in a frame and hung on the wall. The concepts as a whole and its part are correlated. Further, how does an assessment differ from an examination of paintings? N

Examination of paintings and paintings.

An examination is a written opinion on the authenticity of a painting by museum employees who are authorized to give such opinions. And so, the examination of paintings is done only in the museum. And not in any case, but only in those cases where the law provides such an opportunity. This is one museum in Moscow and one in St. Petersburg. These museums measure the painting for examination, within 2 months they do a chemical analysis and stylistic analysis, and they issue a paper confirming the authenticity or refuting it (rejection papers). Regardless of the outcome, this is an expensive procedure. Perhaps even the entire cost of your painting is less than the cost of such paper. An examination of the painting will only tell whether this painting is genuine or not and will give a conclusion about who painted the painting, if there is a signature. If

No one will tell you the cost of the painting during the examination. Because the task of experts is different. They establish authenticity. The value of a painting is determined by art appraisers.

Evaluation of paintings and paintings

Appraisal of paintings is carried out by appraisers. These experts determine the painting's authenticity, authorship, and value of the painting. The cost of a painting is determined by personal experience, knowledge of the antique sales market and the results of auctions. Every painting expert can easily distinguish a fake from an original. The examination serves exclusively as paper for sale which museums are authorized to give, but this is only for very expensive paintings and expensive artists. All other paintings only require evaluation by an expert, no paperwork.

In 90% of cases, the purchase process takes 10-15 minutes. This is an inspection of the painting by an appraiser, setting a price and purchasing. The whole procedure is simple and convenient.

To evaluate a painting online, you need a photograph of the painting on both sides, sent by email. The only point is that not every painting can be assessed online; some paintings only require a personal inspection by an expert.

In addition, if an examination of the painting is necessary, in rare cases, the antique house takes care of completing all the necessary documents.

More detailed information about the evaluation of paintings and paintings and examination can be obtained from experts by calling the numbers on the website.

How does buying paintings in an antique salon differ from buying them near the metro?

• The basic rule of purchase pricing: the more serious and authoritative the antique store, the more serious the client (buyer). The wider the circle of serious buyers, the more expensive the store can afford to purchase antiques from the population. The more expensive the purchase price of an ancient icon, the more profitable it is for you to directly sell it to an antique store.
• Obviously, only the eye of an art expert is able to see a masterpiece of art in a painting and set a price as for a work of art, and not “for a thousand.”
• It is possible to put it up for commission at a higher cost.
• There is a high probability that a painting recognized as an antique will begin its march through museums and exhibitions, pleasing the eyes of millions, and you will receive serious capital to improve your life
• The widest audience of art collectors among the clients of our salon allows us to set a superior purchase price, being confident that the old painting will quickly find its new caring owner.
• Security: the ability, at the end of the transaction, to transfer a large amount to the card without leaving the premises.

Acceptance of paintings for commission

In a situation where the price offered in the purchase does not suit you, the salon is always ready to meet you halfway and put your masterpiece on consignment. Considering the daily volume of visitors to our salon on Arbat, an old painting by a famous artist does not stay long in the window, if the price is right for it.

Many of the items of significant artistic or historical value adorn large collections of famous art connoisseurs. If you intend to sell the entire collection of paintings, we can connect you with buyers in the person of famous antique dealers, Russian and European museum houses.

Payment

Payment is made in cash or by transfer to the client’s account.

Mackerel

To prepare mackerel in mustard marinade, we will need the following ingredients: fresh mackerel or pre-thawed frozen mackerel, water, salt, sugar, black peppercorns, bay leaf, ready-made mustard.

Pour salt into the pan that will be used to prepare the fish marinade.

Following the salt, pour sugar into the pan.

Pour hot water into the pan with the combined spices, put it on the fire and bring to a boil. Let the marinade boil for about 3 minutes and remove the pan from the stove.

When the marinade has cooled a little, add the prepared mustard to it and stir until the mustard is completely dissolved in the liquid. It is convenient to use a whisk for this purpose. Leave the marinade until it cools completely.

While the mustard marinade is cooling, prepare the thawed mackerel carcass for marinating. To do this, we cut off the heads of the mackerel, gut the fish, and wash it.

And now I’ll tell you how to make a container for pickling fish from a simple plastic bottle, because, you see, not every home has a container suitable for pickling fish. We simply cut out a “door” on the side of a clean two-liter bottle through which it will be convenient to place the fish inside the bottle, and screw the bottle tightly with a lid. In addition, in such a bottle the mackerel will fit compactly in the refrigerator and will be salted evenly! Through the hole in the bottle we place the mackerel inside the container.

When the marinade has cooled, pour it into the bottle so that it covers the mackerel. Carefully, so that the marinade does not spill, we move the bottle with the fish into the refrigerator, for stability we fix it with something on both sides. The mackerel will marinate for 3 days. Shake the bottle periodically so that the marinade does not stagnate.

In three days you will be able to eat pickled mackerel!

Separate the mackerel fillet from the bones and skin, cut into slices, place on a dish, pour in oil, sprinkle with chopped onions and serve.

Mackerel prepared according to this recipe turns out incredibly tasty!

Mustard mackerel can be used in salads and snacks.

Before we get started with the recipes, let's take a look at the tips from experienced chefs for salting mackerel:

Preliminary preparation for home pickling

To get the best results, choose large, fatty fish when purchasing. The best specimens for pickling are 300 g or more.

Be sure to pay attention to the quality of the fish. Use fresh, not frozen. Its skin should be light gray, without yellow spots. The eyes should be shiny, not cloudy. Fresh mackerel is elastic to the touch, with a characteristic fresh smell.

For pickling, use glass, ceramic enamel or plastic dishes, the main thing is that they do not oxidize. Many people have adapted to salting fish in cut-off drinking water bottles. We will use glass jars.

Use regular, non-iodized salt, preferably coarsely ground.

It is better not to store the finished snack in the freezer, as after thawing, its taste and quality will deteriorate.

Homemade recipe in pieces

This recipe for mackerel pieces allows you to cook the fish very quickly, since it is not salted whole, but cut into small pieces. Already on the second day, the appetizer is ready to eat, while whole salted mackerel can be eaten only after 5 days. Well, we won’t be lazy and cut it up to be rewarded for our efforts.

Let's look at several ways to spicy salt this fish:

Clean the fish from the insides. Cut off the head and large, tough fins. You can also cut off the tail. The ridge still needs to be removed. Although this is not necessary, do as you please.

Rinse the carcass thoroughly inside and out, cut into small pieces. You can cut the fish along the ridge, remove the bones and cut the halves of the carcass into pieces or simply salt the whole halves.

Place the pieces of fish in a jar, adding spices, and pour over the oil.
To fill, dissolve salt in a measured volume of cool water, pour in vinegar. Boil, then cool well.

Pour the resulting brine over the fish in the jar. You can put a slice of lemon on top (to reduce the characteristic fishy smell). Close the lid and shake lightly.

Keep at normal room temperature for the first 6-8 hours, and then refrigerate. Delicious spicy mackerel will be ready in a day. If you salted the cut halves without the backbone, then it will be possible the very next day.

By the way, instead of a can, you can use a strong plastic bag (or double). Place the pieces of fish there and tie them up. Place in a tray and put in the refrigerator. The snack without filling will be ready in two days.
