If removing the salmon skin is difficult, try this one easy tip.
Roni Lehti
The salmon should be skinned, but sometimes all you end up with is a scaly skin, a damaged salmon and a grumpy chef.
If you want to remove the skin without a filleting knife, you can do that too. That’s when heat comes to the rescue.
In the spring, Iltalehti told a tip where you can pour boiling water over a salmon fillet.
But it is not always possible to play with hot water.
Chef Risto Mikkola I suggest another trick.
– Now we don’t pour hot water, but we heat the surface of the leather with a toho and then pull the leather off, advises Mikkola.

According to him, you don’t need to sharpen the surface of the leather much with a gas burner, when it already comes off beautifully. Heat and pull.
In addition to water and a gas burner, the third trick is to quickly heat a piece or pieces of salmon in a hot oven.
However, this trick is hardly worth doing, unless the oven heats up anyway. Simply removing the skin does not improve the heating of the electric oven.
