The FoodOboz editorial team shares with you a life hack on how to clean herring in just 2 minutes without damaging the fillet and without pitting it. The life hack was published on the YouTube channel "SMAKplus - Ideas to taste".

How to quickly clean herring:

1. Cut off the head of the fish, gut it, and cut off the tail and fins.

2. Remove the skin, but be very careful not to damage the fillet. Make an incision along the spine to make it easier to remove the bone.

3. Press the bone well with your hands, gently bending it inward so that the fillet is whole. Remove the backbone.

4. Use kitchen tweezers to remove the remaining bones, and you can use the finished fillet for cooking.
