I went and defrosted the freezer a couple of weeks ago and found four tubs of fish that were kind of old so I made up a batch of pickled fish. I had some that were as old as 2014. I had enough perch , pike and walleye to get 4 pints of each. It takes about 7 days from start to eating time and boy are they good. I put onions in between the layers of fish for the first time and they really enhance the flavor. So far I've tried the perch and the pike and I could sit down and eat the whole jar if I would let myself. Even the onions are great when they're pickled. I'm going to fill my first empty jar with onions and see if the left over juice will work a second time.
Would love to hear the duck pickling recipe!
yes, these were white suckers from clear cold water. was skeptical at first but after trying them I was pleased.
