fish stench and the solution (literally)

[Anonymous No.11237592]

i've been watching some chinese cooking videos and what seems to be a trend is to wash fish in a solution of a little salt, like an ounce of clear spirit, like baiju, and water.
i don't speak communist so i've been thinking and alcohol being a solvent, is it used to get rid of the fish odor that so many people don't like?
it's the first time i hear about this shit, someone explain

I like mac n cheese cuz it gives me the best farts. They're nice and wet, they have that frogginess to them, but they never border on a shart. It's like a bubble bursting in my asshole everytime. If I mix it with broccoli I get these nice long wet farts that sound like someone making fart noises into their wind instrument at bandcamp when they're trying to learn how to play it. And the smell, dear lord the smell. Sweet and sensuous yet with a sour note that just kind of dangles there at the end, never overstaying its welcome and becoming rancid. Some nights after eating a massive bowl of mac n cheese and broccoli I pass out and awake in the morning to a symphony of this wonderous farts flying from my asshole and the aroma of the pungent mist their collective aura has dabbed upon my bedroomU

Consider that they love to eat fermented fish in a hundred different ways I don’t think they are bothered by that fish smell.

Mocking, mocking. As can be clearly seen. I have blocked you all from my twitter.

It is also interesting to notice that you claim that I said that I hate sex. As can be seen above I never claimed that. I did just assoiate you with certain radical type of radical feminism that exists today. I never once mention sex or anything like that in my comment. You are making up my views here, this is not surprising, since yoy type of people are well known to do this. I have seen it many times before, and I am going to see it many times again.

So, is there a trick to this, dumb luck, were those calculations some sort of brain programing to trigger carrots, or is it finally time for me to start sporting that snazzy new tinfoil hat and start posting in /x/?

Fish doesn't stink unless it's going off. Stop buying old fish.

[Anonymous No.11240638]

This is gonna be a long effort post but I'm just gonna assume OP is still here and interested.

Fish is very rich in proteins, which are basically long chains of amino acids. When living things die, bacteria degrade the proteins in the fish into their amino acids and further down to so-called "amines", which are highly volatile. Their smells range from "week old cum" to "feces", but overall the smell profile is pretty yucky. That's what constitutes the fish smell. High-proof alcohol is of course a disinfectant, and too much salt also kills the bacteria. This does not preserve your fish forever since they just accelerate the inevitable, but it makes handling fish more bearable.
Should you happen to have fish smell on your dishes after you eat it you can easily clean them with lemon juice. Amines are bases, and the juice is acidic. Putting both together yields " ammonium" salts which aren't really volatile. They can also be washed out very easily because they're water soluble. That's also the reason why a lot of fish in restaurants gets served with a lemon slice as decoration.
>TL;DR Both alcohol and salt kill off the bacteria that are responsible for producing the smell.
