Pickeled fish

[cleosdad]

Pickeled some steelhead the other day, a friend did some suckers(vinegar disolves the bones) start by cutting fish into small cubes, fill a quart jar, boil white vinegar and 5/8 cup of salt per quart of vinegar, let it cool down, then fill jars( option to add peppercorn, pickeling spice, bayleaves) while boiling, set in refrig, for 5-7 days, then drain and wash fish, then boil up white vinegar, surgar, boil and cool down, cut up onions and pack jars at the rate of 1-1 onions to fish, usually layer of onions then layer of fish, when packed full , cover with vinegar and sugar, set in refrig, for 5-7 days, onions are as good as the fish, and JC beer goes well with it.

There was an old guy that would visit our job sites that pickled salt water mullet. He'd gut the fish, stack them in jars, add brine and pressure can.
