💍 I got married 3 months ago & still learning the kitchen ropes! 🍳 Two days ago, I decided to clean some fish, and… chaos erupted! 😅 Scales flying everywhere, even in my hair! 🐟
But guess what? My mom came to the rescue with a genius hack! 🙌 Clean the fish inside a plastic bag! 🤯
No mess, no stress, just pure magic! ✨ Since then, this trick is my kitchen holy grail! 🔥
I got married three months ago, and I’m still very inexperienced in the kitchen. Nowadays, I spend a lot of time there. I must admit, I’ve discovered that I actually enjoy cooking, but being a beginner means I often create real “masterpieces” — not always in a good way!
Two days ago, my husband brought home some fish, and I eagerly decided to clean it myself. At first, everything was going well, but as I started descaling the fish, the scales flew everywhere — all over the kitchen, even into my hair!ы
Just at that moment, my mom came over. She saw me «battling» with the fish and burst out laughing. Then she said, “It’s obvious you’ve only just started cooking.” But she also showed me a great little trick that truly saved me.
She took a strong plastic bag, placed the fish inside it, and told me to clean it inside the bag. At first, I thought it was odd, but once I started — holding the fish with one hand and scraping with the other — I realized it was brilliant. The scales stayed inside the bag, no mess, no cleanup stress.
Since that day, I always use this method when cleaning fish. It’s simple, clean, and saves so much time and effort. My mom’s little tip became a true treasure in my kitchen routine.
