How to clean a Tuna fish ?
Cleaning a tuna fish involves a few steps. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to clean a tuna fish:
1. Prepare your workspace: Choose a clean and spacious area with a clean cutting board or table.
2. Gather your tools: You'll need a sharp knife, a pair of kitchen shears, a clean towel or paper towels, and a water source to rinse the fish.
3. Remove the scales: Hold the fish firmly by its tail and scrape the scales off with a knife or a scaler from tail to head. Make sure to remove all the scales on both sides of the fish.
4. Clean the belly: Lay the fish on its side and insert your knife into the belly from the anus towards the head. Cut slowly and gently along the belly, opening up the fish's belly cavity.
5. Gut the fish: Remove all the organs and intestines from the belly cavity. Use your hands or a spoon to scoop them out. Rinse the cavity with water to remove any remaining debris.
6. Remove the head and tail (optional): If desired, you can remove the head and tail of the fish. Use a sharp knife to cut them off. This step is not necessary, but it can make handling and storage easier.
7. Rinse and pat dry: Rinse the cleaned fish under cold water to remove any blood or residue. Pat the fish dry with a towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Now your tuna fish is ready for cooking or further processing according to your recipe or preference. Remember to dispose of the fish waste properly and keep your workspace clean throughout the process.
